looking at this on ebay...rear wheels don't seem to fill the arches properly? Any views?

looks like they have took the wheel-spacers off, it sits a bit higher than my 82.
or maybe skinny tyres.

Looks about right on width.
Wrong profile tyre at a guess

No wheel spacers fitted,I had no spacers when I first bought my 944 and the wheels were lost in the arches.
I ended up fitting spacers...and replacing the wheels too.

I have a red (pink) 924S 1986 with around 125K miles (certified clock change at 62K and now has around 62K) MOT till next Sept taxed till next Feb.
Paintwork needs either a good cut or preferably re-painting as 22years taken its toll. O/S wing has gone where it connects to the sill and front spoiler but I have a good red steel wing to go on.
Excellent interior with Porsche Logo seats no rips or tears but dash has usual cracking,Sony radio CD unit with new front speakers.
Runs on 924 turbo 5 stud (cobweb) alloys with 4 nearly new Dunlops, spare never used.
Belts done about 20K miles ago.
Had all new brake pipes around 2 years ago new front discs and pads last year and new rears in September for MOT, oil and filter changed about 3K miles ago with new Distributor cap/rotor arm plugs and Beru leads. STST exhaust not yet 1 year old. New sunroof seals inner & outer, new hatch seal, pins and pin seals, new battery last year huge history file.
Usual 924S stuff like power steering, electric windows/mirrors, sunroof.

The only thing letting it down is the bodywork which always comes up nice after a polish but as I said should realy be re-painted to make it stand out (someone also went down the passenger side with a key when I got it I don't notice it any more and not down to metal but another reason to re-paint).
I have been letting my MIL use it since Feb but she is not driving it much so its probably only done 2K miles this year.

I am not sure what it is worth probably more in parts but cant bear to break it as I actually like it more than my S2 but common sense says sell it so if you want a reliable one for £1200 then its yours.

thanks for the offer but I think you're a little far away.
