1986 PORSCHE 924 S

KEY FACTS

• An unmodified modern classic sports car, which presents in very good overall condition.
• It is powered by the 148bhp 2.5-litre inline-four, coupled to a five-speed manual transmission.
• A solid maintenance history is on file, comprising a raft of main dealer and independent services.
• The V5C shows three previous keepers, but the vendor states there are just two prior owners.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• The 924 S features upgraded suspension and 944-style brakes, but retains the early 924’s interior.
• Black vinyl upholstery with pinstripe velour centre panels and door cards.
• Factory equipment includes an electrically operated sunroof, boot release, wing mirrors and windows.
• An aftermarket Kenwood stereo has been installed.
• Its original owner’s manuals and service book will be included, along with two keys and an excellent record of MOT certificates.

CONDITION

• The sills were replaced two years ago, though there is no known prior accident damage.
• Its white paintwork is in good condition, though has some scratches and stone chips on the front bumper, bonnet and wing mirrors.
• Some light fading can be seen on the edge of the rear wing.
• Inside, its pinstripe velour upholstery is slightly faded, and two small tears have been reported in the leather outer driver’s bolster.
• The gear knob trim is worn and has begun to flake.
• No electrical faults have been detected.
• The most recent MOT test was on 8 April 2021 at 91,606 miles, which was a pass with advisories to monitor a deteriorated fuel hose, a slightly corroded fuel pipe, corrosion to the offside front lower suspension arm, and wear to the tyres.

SERVICE HISTORY

• Its most recent service was undertaken by technicians at Uphill Motor Company in Weston-super-Mare, who changed the engine oil and filter.
• Prior to this, the brake fluid was changed at Backwell Motors in Bristol at 81,261 miles.

SUMMARY

This Porsche 924 S is a solid example of a very usable sports car, remaining unmodified and highly original. While the most recent MOT highlighted some minor items needing attention in the future, it would be a great companion for weekend B-road jaunts as-is, and also straightforward to improve.
