Superb looking car Andy! I have never seen that colour combination. I assume the seats are custom?


Cheers Alex :D

Me either - I think the seats are custom yeah, the interior all matches in blue and white with red piping. The carpets could do with a revamp at some point though!


Nice looking car abd very eye catching colour scheme. I like the seat design as well. Looks well looked after and good nick. ))

My first post on the forum, so hello!

I've previously owned a series of three 924s, but here's my current car, a 1988 944S which I've owned for about five years. Its pretty much all original apart from the stereo. It was rather neglected by by the previous owner, but I'm getting it sorted one bit at a time as money allows. I've had the engine rebuilt, new wheel bearings, brakes, rear half-shafts and a lot of the wiring, plus numerous other bit and pieces. The next big job is the upholstery and that damned leaky sunroof.

yes she is rare, there are only half a dozen to be converted in the UK.
Of which there are only 2 Turbos!
my conversion is a Lainwather & Blazek the other is a Beiber, Both TUV approved Kits. :D

cracking car, i nearly bought a 924 cab 2 yrs ago also red from a dealer in the new forest.
needed loads of work unfortunately. tbh i thought that was a one off. it was a 2.0 n/a on an x reg. kinda wish i'd bought it now.

just found these pics of the car i mentioned. pics did it too much justice, it needed windows, paintwork, engine rebuild, poss. new hood and fittings etc. was too much to take on sadly. very pretty though :D
