DESCRIPTION

One of just 73 UK registered 1992 models left in the UK...For a car designed as a stopgap model between the outgoing Porsche 944 and the forthcoming Boxster, the Porsche 968 was quite an achievement. Voted by Performance Car magazine the best handling car of 1993, the 968 had a lot going for it. Despite its excellence, the four-cylinder Porsche was launched at a problem time, with recession hit Britain largely turning its back on the marque, associated as it was with eighties excess. This makes it quite a rare sight on Britain's roads, and coupled with the fact that it was only produced for three years, used examples are less than commonplace. If you're a fan of the marque you'll know about the 968's driver appeal, its reliability, and general quality.

This rare manual 968, has been owned by our conscientious vendor since July 2010, and was used lightly but regularly. Beautifully presented and having recently enjoyed a ""big"" service, cambelt renewal and an MoT test, this very pretty 968 is looking for a new owner.
