Offered here is a lovely, UK-supplied, right-hand drive 930 Turbo with just two owners and less than 22,000 miles from new that was supplied new by Dick Lovett Specialist Cars, Official Porsche centre and first registered on 1st August 1985. Our vendor purchased this example on 28th February 1987 from the supplying dealer and the purchase invoice details "a used 911 Turbo with 3,200 miles, finished in black, equipped with sports seats, rear air ducts, skirts and a deep front spoiler". The Turbo has clearly been well cared for with the original service book showing 21 years of servicing at the supplying official Porsche centre and further regular maintenance with other Porsche specialists.

Accompanying this spectacular 911 is a history file containing the original book pack, with the aforementioned service book stamped up to date, our vendors purchase invoice from Dick Lovett, 20 MOT Certificates and a wealth of invoices for other specialist maintenance including a new Sachs clutch fitted at 21,000 miles. Also within the file are old registration papers and a current V5c indicating a return to 'C478 HMW' after our vendor's private number had been removed.

Prior to the 911 arriving with us, the owner decided to have the car fully checked over at a Porsche specialist with a new MOT and, once complete, the Turbo was treated to deep clean and full paint correction at a multi-award winning detailer. The sparkling results speak for themselves and the Porsche is now mechanically and cosmetically spot-on and ready for a lucky new owner.

In summary, this is a fabulous opportunity to take ownership of a superb example of the ‘original’ Turbo, a true '80s icon with just two owners from new, less than 22,000 miles and offered from 35 years caring ownership.
