Highlights Classic Guards Red with black cookie cutter-style alloy wheels Light restoration begun by seller Described by the vendor as mechanically very sound MOT valid until 9th September 2027 The Appeal One of the most successful models in Porsche’s pre-Millennial history, the 944 brought the German sports car brand’s trademark blend of performance, practicality and dependability to new audiences. Based on the 924, it gained more power from its balancer-shaft 2.5-litre engine, enhanced handling and braking, a more muscular body with swollen wheel arches, and was both better equipped and more refined than its sibling. The seller has owned this 1985 example car since February 2026, during which time they have conducted light restoration work, including welding work to the jacking points and a service. The car is finished in the classic combination of Guards Red with black cookie cutter-style wheels. The exterior is highly original, including the original decals. The seller notes some areas of imperfections in the paintwork, including peeling lacquer on the left rear quarter and a scratch in the paintwork around the left headlight. Inside, the interior is smart and has been fitted with replacement seats. The seller notes that there is a split in the dashboard and the rev-counter is not working. They also report a leak in the boot due to a defective seal around the boot lid. The seller says that the car “ drives extremely well ” and notes that its recent MOT showed no advisories. With some further work, it could be brought up to a fine standard while delivering the finely balanced driving experience that the Porsche 944 is rightly renowned for.
