thanks.

i dont know a lot about them, but the 944 S2 is one of my favorite porsche's, a mate had a S2 turbo a few years ago, i think it was 250bhp standard, it was a quick car.

get a turbo, everything else is pants

err nope ?????


S2 3.0l 4 pots a good one, 200ks no problem for them, i'd try and find a leathered up one, as the cloth/cord interiors are very dated unless your into the 80s thing

thanks for the comments but im kinda on a budget for the 944lux £2500/£3500 the turbo and 3ltr are a little out of my price league

Fil

theres 6 3.0s on autotrader £3500 or less, worth a look?

mattbibs

my fave porsche too! crossed my mind getting one as well!

dunno why - maybe cos i loads of model car 944's when a nipper!

im a bit picky though its got to be the right car,fsh reasonable milage e.t.c,mustbe either white or black,i had my eye on this one but would have to work on the price a little

On trackday they are always the mobile chicanes!

There is a white one at the end of my road that is for sale, the owner is 1 of only 4 i think and has been owned by him forever and a day

Its £3250 and well worth looking at if thats the car your after.

Truth is i have no experiance with the 944 but when i looked under the hood it all looked in good condition etc..

I dont know how far away you are but the car is near UpminsterBridge station.

If you want a umber or picture ill sort it out for ya.

I always liked the 944 but a pal of mine just bought one (not sure how old as he has a private plate on) and he's getting the piss ripped about a mid-life crisis - seems like he's hit the male equivalent of the menopause....









MENOPORSCHE!!!!

steveapop

funny you should say that coz my other half is saying the same thing and im only 33.....maybe a early mid life crisis

I've had a 944 Turbo, quick car. I think the disadvantages are that they are starting to look dated now and the parts cost a fortune! I had to replace the front spot/foglight and it was £220 (and that wasn't straight from Porsche either) and I had to fit it myself, which was also a nightmare job.
