1990 Porsche 944 S2 Convertible Original Superb Condition Massive Service History 70,000 Genuine Miles An Appreciating Model To Treasure Water cooled is on the move, the Porsche used car market is as hot as this car looks and it is very rare to find a Cabrio in such fine fettle, amongst the most genuine 944s ever to pass through our hands, condition is everything. For the last 6 years this car has belonged to dedicated Tipec owners (husband & wife) who were both also regional organisers, to say it has been loved would be an understatement. Both the history and care is nothing short of splendid. First registered 12.10.1990 by AFN Porsche in Surrey and specified in timeless classic Guards Red the colour is fantastic and for me is the iconic Porsche shade. The service records make very good reading being maintained by OPC and other independents. Accompanying the stamped service book is a rather impressive folder of bills together with an tabulated document itemising all the monies spent (pictured). The most recent keepers have been lifelong Porsche enthusiasts and the car has attended regular shows as an entrant, Silverstone Classic, OPC events and a drive to Classic Le Mans. You will not find a cleaner more original Cabriolet anywhere with mainly original paint throughout. Chassis : WPOZZZ94ZLN431667 Engine : 42L06390 Paint Code : LM3A Options - Guards Red - Comfort Black leather - Headlight washers - Bosch anti-lock braking system - Anti theft device - Automatic heating control - Headlight aim control - Windshield green graduated tint - Fog light protective casings Recent Maintenance The car wants for nothing looking and driving exactly as it should thanks to knowledgeable enthusiastic owners and those that are prepared to spend. The engine power is very impressive and this is a sharp S2 to drive with quick pick up, not surprising as the engine bay is superbly detailed and starts quickly and is amongst the quietest smoothest running 3.0s I have seen or heard about. The all important cam belt and balance belt were changed last by Porsche centre Bristol as detailed. Within the last few years I have set out below just some of the more major points covered, this being the tip of the iceberg. On a regular basis the owner has been visiting Porsche centre Bristol to have a full inspection carried out addressing any points raised, proper preventative care. - 12.04.16 Mot Dick Lovett Bristol OPC 70087 miles - 12.03.16 Full Inspection Dick Lovett Bristol OPC 70015 miles - 25.04.15 Oil & filter change 68015 miles - 03.04.15 Handbrake checked and adjusted, pads cleaned and backs greased, new offside pad wear indicator - 27.03.15 Mot 68006 miles - 06.05.14 Car inspection Dick Lovett Bristol OPC nothing to report 66752 miles - 11.04.14 Mot 66736 miles - 15.03.14 O/S rear back plate changed, brake fluid changed, boot lock grommet changed 66655 miles - 13.04.13 Full inspection Dick Lovett Bristol OPC, steering shaft play adjusted gearbox oil checked 64500 miles - 05.04.13 Mot 64313 miles - 30.03.13 Door operating rods changed (both) 64250 miles - 18.03.13 Major service, oil & filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, distributor cap, air filter, both bonnet struts, Dick Lovett Bristol OPC 64210 miles - 18.03.13 Cam & balance belt replacement, cam belt rollers & tensioner replaced balance shaft seals replaced, coolant change Dick Lovett Bristol OPC 64210 miles - 19.07.12 Oil & filter change, rear shock absorbers replaced 63217 miles - 13.04.12 Mot 62465 miles Other more historic work that has been carried out is detailed below, literally too much to list however here is a brief summary. - DME relay replaced - Tracking set - Water pump flange changed, bottom radiator hose, coolant change, cam & balance belts checked, 62100 miles - Steering shaft replaced, exhaust tip replaced - New power steering pipe, PAS & alternator belt changed - Gearbox oil changed, new brake flexi pipes 52889 miles - Flasher unit replaced - Exhaust mountings refitted - Cooling fan switch replaced - New spats - Cam & balance belt change & gear linkage checked 26.01.04 This all backed up with original invoicing. As such this 944 is rather well set up and is a turn key ready to perform Sports car that will fit into any collection or be the main focal point of classic ownership. Condition The paintwork is truly stunning with little to no imperfections appearing all original. A light detailing session reveals a truly immaculate example with quality finish and no disappointing cosmetics. The alloys refinished recently are flawless and beautifully diamond cut by Lepsons substantially adding to the appeal, in the flesh the contrasting Black cut rims really compliment the Black hood. All the black work and seals that can perish over time are in fine order. The interior carpets to boot and floor are as new. The dash is in perfect condition and all switchgear works as intended. The leather is well fed and again in excellent condition having being well preserved. The engine bay is extremely impressive and show worthy which is the general theme with the whole car. Peeling the carpet away in the boot reveals how original it truly is as the images all suggest. I have inspected the underside and was amazed at how clean and dry it is with no corrosion and needless to say, no leaks. Anyone would struggle to source a better 944 and one that is properly set up ready to be enjoyed. This car will pass any inspection and reckon having handled literally hundreds of 944s this will suit even the fussiest of standards.
