1992 Porsche 968 3.0 Manual Coupe Rhd 27 Stamp Service Record Former Porsche Press Car Outstanding Condition First registered in UK by AFN Porsche cars GB on 01.08.1992 making this one of the earliest 968 models possible. The car remained at the dealership for 2 years being used by management and as an ambassador for the then new model. It also appeared on the stand at the London motor show in that year and was rather a well known example in Porsche circles at the time. The service record makes extremely good reading being maintained by OPC and other quality independents consistently never missing a service schedule. As such the engine appears to be free from any stress and despite the modest mileage remains rather box fresh to drive. Only 5 owners in 25 years and the most recent keeper owned for over 10 years, its has truly been a loved car, and in this instance the principle of buying on the strength of condition, not mileage, has never been more apt.

As such this 968 is very well set up and is a turn key ready to perform sports car. Upon a sale I will have a fresh MOT carried out so it has the fullest of tests for the new owner. Interior features includes full electric pack with windows mirrors and sunroof that also doubles up as a terga as it pulls out. Climate control, CD player, central locking and 4 way electric seats. Highly original with spec as it left the factory. Note all the correct amber lenses and side repeaters, the cup mirrors, the Cup 1 smaller 16 " alloys that the car handles best on, the correct spec size and rating of tyres, total toolkit, red spare wheel, leather owners wallet with all handbooks, and the luggage blind. All factory labels correct to the boot, b post, petrol flap, under engine, etc. Condition The metallic paint work is truly stunning with no imperfections. A light detailing session reveals a truly original car with quality finish and no disappointing cosmetics. The alloys refinished recently by the wheel specialist have coloured centres. All the black work and seals that can perish over time is equally fresh. The interior carpets to boot and floor are excellent. The dash is in excellent condition and all switchgear works as intended. The leather is well fed and again in excellent condition having being well treated. The engine bay is truly immaculate. 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 welding or dodgy repairs and no leaks. Anyone would struggle to source a better 968 and one that is properly set up ready to be enjoyed. This car will pass any inspection and reckon it to suit even the fussiest of standards. An Appreciating Model To Keep The pinnacle of Porsche's continuous development of its original 4cyl water cooled front engine, even today for the purist driver it remains a sensation almost unequalled in any other Sports car. The 968 is the ultimate evolution of that classic formula that had been refined since the late 70s. There is no substitute for condition, or a flawless service record. Granted you may buy one cheaper however the quality of this example will remain long after the price has been forgotten, the miles are higher than many but honestly looks and drives like one third of them, with value of all cars only ever going to go up, this will become less important with time, condition is everything.
