The 15-inch Tele-dial alloy wheels are in superb un-marked condition and set the car off perfectly. Standard period features of the 944 are the large electrically operated tilting sunroof panel which can also be removed for a ‘targa’ style open air experience, the large rear spoiler and of course, Pop-Up headlights. , Internally, the black light-grey pin-stripe cloth works well with the dark blue exterior and makes for a very light, airy and comfortable cabin. The interior trim remains in very nice condition with no major wear and just a light age-related patina to show for its 36 years. All electrical items and switches including sunroof and rear hatch release all work as they should, including the digital clock (which is a rarity in a 944 these days)!, The car is has been fitted with a later Pioneer Radio / CD head-unit offering DAB radio, USB & iPhone input and Bluetooth Connectivity for a slightly more up-to-date media experience than available in 1988. , One of the 944’s best features is its real world practicality. The rear offers 2+2 seating (ideal for small children) and a rear luggage area which allows plenty of room for a trip away or even the weekly shopping trip. The rear seat back also folds flat to increase the luggage area even more for those longer trips. Under the luggage area carpet you’ll find the space saver spare wheel, jack and tool-kit roll. , At the front of the car, the engine bay is clean, tidy and in good order with original factory stickers still in place. The engine starts at the first turn of the key and idles smoothly. , On the road the car drives really well and with a smoothness more associated with a straight 6 than a straight 4. The non-power assisted steering feeling light and accurate on the move returns all the road surface feedback a driver could want. The 5 speed rear mounted gearbox is a joy to operate with a light clutch and a positive gear change. Brakes are good and pull the car up in a straight line with little fuss. , The power delivery is smooth and progressive as you change up through the 5 speed rear mounted gearbox and the car offers the perfect balance of an old-school 1980’s coupe with modern day ride comfort and handling. Once on the move, the 944’s legendary 50/50 weight distribution makes for a great driving experience on the open road. , SPECIFICATION:, Registered: 21st April 1989, Colour: LY5Z Ocean Blue, Interior: Light Grey Pin-stripe cloth, VIN No: WP0ZZZ94ZJN421864 , Engine No: 46J07410, , UK Specification (C16), Electric Windows, Electric Mirrors, Electric Tilting Sunroof (Removable), Power Steering, Central Locking, 15 inch ‘Tele-dial’ Alloy Wheels, Folding Rear Seats, , PERFORMANCE:, Engine: 2.5 4 cylinder, Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive, Power: 163BHP, Acceleration 0-62mph: 8.4 seconds, Top Speed (where legal): 137mph, , HISTORY:, The car was first registered on 9th August 1988 at Dick Lovett Porsche in Swindon to the original owner from Oxon who owned the 944 for 32 years and 50,000 miles until May 2020 when it was sold to the second owner from Evesham who went through the car replacing parts and refreshing the 944 whilst putting less than 1000 additional miles on the car over their 3 years of ownership. , Refresh work between May 2020 and April 2023 included:-, , Major Service Items, Replacement Rubber Seals, Wheel Bearings, Replacement Door Speakers (Alpine), Timing Belt, Ancillary Belt, Upgraded Radio Head Unit, Wheel Refurbishment, Brake Fluid, Discs & Pads , New Stone Guard Set, Water Pump & Thermostat, New Windscreen, New Battery, General Paintwork Improvements, , The current and 3rd owner purchased the car in April 23 but has now had to reluctantly re-home the 944 due to losing the cars garaging arrangement following retirement and their decision to down-size property. , The service book shows servicing and maintenance by the supplying Porsche Dealership Dick Lovett from new until April 1997 at 37,000 miles, with the following service by Porsche Centre Bristol at 40,600 miles. , Servicing and maintenance were then carried out as part of the cars refresh with the 2nd owner from 2020 onwards.
