Hi Guys thought I'd join up and show you mine lol. After looking long and hard I came across this 1986 944 turbo that had been fully restored and feel in love with her I have posted a picture and write up that was with the car when it was advertised will hope fully get some better pictures when the weather improves. Would love to hear your comments and any advice you can give would be greatly received . Also thinking of showing her so again any advice would be great.
thanks Greg

Absoloutely stunning 1986 944 Turbo. This car has been meticulously restored from an uncrashed ( HPI checked ) example by a dedicated 944 Turbo enthusiast. Meticulously restored over a 3 year period in spare time with absoloutely no expense spared and only sensible updates. Huge file of reciepts, thousands spent. Only a few hundred dry miles covered since rebuild. Some spares also available if required
Succesful bidder must view car and BOTH parties be in full agreement before final sale documents are signed or the car stays with me.
Arrival of ( expensive ) new wife and wallet eating house restoration forces extremely reluctant sale of what is probably the best 944 Turbo in the UK.
