1982 Porsche 911 Turbo

The Porsche 930 Turbo was a genuine 'Supercar' that defined the Seventies and Eighties. It was one of the fastest production cars available at the time. It was first seen at the 1973 Paris Auto Show and full production commenced two years later. The basic engine underpinnings came from the Carrera 2.7RS which was increased to 3.0Litres and, of course, turbocharged with technology gained from Porsche's 917/30 Can-Am programme. The bodywork received special treatment to produce one of the most aggressive looking Porsches ever made with its wide arches and impressive rear whale-tail. The brakes came directly from the Porsche 917 race car. The final evolution of the 930 Turbo saw the engine capacity increased to 3299cc, with improved upgrades on the intercooler and fitment of the G50 transmission. By 1989, the final year of production, the power had risen to 330bhp.

Registered in 1982, this 930 Turbo represents a great investment opportunity as prices continue to climb for these undervalued modern-classics. Described by the meticulous vendor as in great condition throughout and driving very well, this car is supplied with a good history file. All of the original service books, some old MoTs, spare key and recent bills can be found in the history file. More recently, ARR 450Y has been the subject of significant expenditure. Over £3,000 worth of parts alone have contributed to a significant overhaul of numerous mechanical components. In the last couple of months it has had new heat exchangers, heater pipes, new turbo, turbo pipes, o-rings, wastegate rebuild, brake lines, brake pads and a drive shaft overhaul. Furthermore, having received a large service the car is reported to be very fast and ready for extended use.

With a full year's MoT and presented in arguably the best colour combination of red bodywork with black leather interior, this stunning example has covered a mere 105,000 miles from new. This iconic Porsche remains one of the most recognised of all 911s with evocative bodywork and performance that became a benchmark. A true 'Supercar'.
