Description

A Porsche 356 is a great classic car, and a nice addition to any classic sports car collection. Developed in the fifties and based on a Volkswagen Beetle platform, the 356 became the base for the growth of the Porsche imperium. Without looking back, Porsche became one of the key players in the sportscar market, with in dept development of their original concept : a rear engined sportscar with boxer engine.

This particular 356 has been completely restored about ten years ago in Holland, and is still in immaculate condition. Engine and gearbox are overhauled, and the body was stripped to bare metal before being repainted in the fantastic colour of Aquamarine metallic. The interior is retrimmed in matching dark blue leather and looks beautiful. This is a matching nrs car, with original engine and gearbox as confirmed by Porsche. It is an interesting version, being the T5 body with round bonnet and equipped with the swift 1600 S engine producing 75 bhp from new.

So if you want a good looking classic sportscar to enjoy in the spring and summer, this would be a good choice. It offers an entertaining drive and it will definitely keep its value (or even increase) if maintained in this great condition.
