FOR SALE: 1984 Porsche 928S

Ignored by Porsche purists and general classic car enthusiasts for many years, the 928 has finally started to gain traction in recent times. This 928S represents an affordable entry into classic Porsche motoring.

FAST FACTS

Year and Make/Model: 1984 Porsche 928S

Engine: 4.7L V8 petrol

Transmission: 4-speed Automatic

Mileage: 202 352km

Colour: White

Location: Johannesburg

PRICE: R175 000

Originally conceived to replace the 911, Porsche's bold 928 was an engineering marvel when it was first unveiled in 1978. It had a very long model life, lasting until 1995, but ultimately the 911 outlived it. 

The 928 represented a break with many Porsche traditions, sporting a V8 under its long hood and a transaxle to achieve the optimum 50/50 weight distribution. Even with the 4.7L V8 (as fitted to this car), the 928 was more of a fast GT than an edgy sportscar.

This white example dates from 1984 and features a blue leather interior. With just over 200 000km on the odo it needs some cosmetic TLC, but the engine purrs smoothly and it rides well.  

Interesting trade-ins will be considered.
