944S2, 1990 G reg (01/02/90). 80,800 miles with 23 stamps (not all Porsche) in original service book. Eight previous owners. Crystal silver with rare Studio check interior & 968 CS steering wheel. Immaculate inside, out & underneath. My local Porsche specialist, Tom Fergusson, remarked it was the best 944S2 he had seen in years, it's that good. The body work is flawless except for some minor stonechips (touched in of course) & underwent a minor restoration of the sills & bottom of the front wings to make perfect in the Spring of 2013 at a specialist bodyshop. The interior is perfect. I replaced the drivers seat up right cover with new one to make perfect. Also replaced the gear knob with a genuine Porsche item. Not cheap! Mechanically the car is excellent. The belts & clutch were replaced in 2012 along with the calipers being refurbished for plate lift. New steering shaft & alternator refurbished. In 2013 the fuel lines were replaced, new rear brake lines, new distributor cap & rotor arm. Also receipts for numerous other work carried out. Wheels perfect with matching Continental tyres. Standard exhaust with different tail pipe only, which I think suits the car. Kenwood CD/radio. All hand books present, two keys (including immobiliser) spare wheel, compressor etc.The car starts, drives & handles perfectly.

I bought this car from a PCGB member & it had won Concours awards at regional level & is even better now. The car is sub 100k miles, excellent history, has no issues & wants for nothing. I doubt you would find a better one. Agreed valuation, two years ago of £7,500. I'm looking for no less than £6,750.

The car originates from the South coast of England, where it spent all of it's life until I bought it in 2013. Which explains it's exceptional condition. MOT October 2014 with no advisories. Currently on SORN for Winter.

Only for sale as I want another Corrado VR6! If anyone requires any further information or pictures then please do not hesitate to ask. My mobile is 07881 631870.

Disaster! The guy buying the car has been made redundant today. Poor lad is devastated.

The car is still for sale.

Cheers,

Steve

That's very subjective!
