Coupe has a stable mate!

[Lee]

Well, I didn’t mean to buy another car nor a car that’s not zed related. I’ve bought my first Porsche! I’m scared and mega excited all at the same time, specially when I accidentally bought it

Now the Porsche is 35 years old, those of you that know me know that’s quite a bit older than me

I’ve bought this totally unseen and I don’t know anything about Porsche’s. So the last 48 hours I’ve been in talks with a restoration specialist so I now feel confident I can spot a lemon if it’s in front of me.

Now onto the car. Admittedly I have been looking on the quiet as an addition to the fleet. She’s a 1983 944 2.5 Lux. I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

Wish me luck. I collect Saturday.

I can see this being a rather fun adventure for a variety of reasons...

Restoring or track.

More restore mate. Will see how it drives over the weekend. If it’s a bit long in the tooth I might just track it.

Check the jacking points I know it’s galvanised but they still get rusty. I used to have a 924 turbo that was also galvanised but still got crusty rear jacking points.

Nice one Lee. Very underrated little car. Got the proper Porsche engine ( its the 928 v8 cut in half if i remember) . Ive a known a couple people have these over the years. Mechanical bullet proof if looked after but sills rot from inside out.
Alot of fun what ever.
