I have the "Jeremy Clarkson" 944 in my garage and due to my personal circumstances it must go. I have bought a leather interior, a spare engine, plugs, air and oil filter. I have just put a new fuel filter on it along with a new fuel pump relay. It was running but spluttered to a halt. If you are seriously interested call me on 01594 822734 or 07783 957381. It is free and you must have everything, I will not split.

Charity auction on ebay. Go for it. Just sold an old record player I was going to take to the tip. Made £155 for Overgate Hospice. :shock:

He featured it on his Thriller DVD a few years ago, as one of the most thrilling cars to drive, ever.

Are we saying it's the actual car he drove, or one like it...?

I've not seen that it's priceless. Like the German bit at the end. :lol:

Meant to add. Is the bird leaning on the bonnet included.???

It’s not actually from that film. Clarkson needed a 944 for that film and the production office bought him this car. He wanted a Turbo for the film, so this car was sold on. Nobby369 wrote a wee report on it for All Torque: Issue 84 (October 2010), page 11. You can view it online here.

The Turbo that was used in the film was eventually given away by The Sun as a competition prize, if I remember rightly.
