"Classic red Porsche 944S in top condition. Few owners who have taken good care of it. Suitable for both museums and collectors."

Description

A low-mileage, Swedish-sold car with known history and few users. According to the vehicle registry, the car has had 8 registered owners, including dealers. However, information from the national archives indicates that the number of actual users is significantly fewer. The Porsche was imported to Sweden by the general agent V.A.G Sweden AB, which applied for registration on 1987-08-04. The car was assigned registration number HWP203. On 1988-03-11, the car was transferred to Scania Bilar in Gothenburg. The next registered owner, as of 1988-06-29, was the dealer Atteviks Personvagnar in Jönköping AB. A few days later, the car was purchased by Miss A. Svensson, who lived in Jönköping. Miss Svensson kept the Porsche until 1994, when it was bought by Mr. Emanuelsson, who lived in Kinna. The car remained in the family until 2019, when it was sold to Johns Garage AB in Borås. Shortly thereafter, it was purchased by the current owner. The reason for the purchase was pure nostalgia, as he had owned a similar Porsche 944 at the age of 19.

In summary, the car has had two primary users: Miss Svensson and the Emanuelsson family. A binder with documents from the national archives is included, allowing you to trace the entire history of the car (see images for a selection).

The current owner has only driven a few miles, as the car has mainly been a display/collector’s car. The Porsche alarm, which is activated by a key in a special lock behind the driver's door, has not been tested (see image). The car comes with the owner’s manual, an unused spare tire, a tool kit, and the targa top cover. It is recommended to service the car and replace the timing belt as a precaution, given that the car has been driven very little in recent years.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Equipped with a 2.5-liter 16-valve engine with a stated output of 190 horsepower. Additionally, it has a five-speed manual transmission. Starts without any issues and runs as smoothly as a sewing machine. The timing belt was replaced in the year 2000 at 20,000 kilometers, and the engine has now covered 45,000 kilometers. It is time to change the timing belt again, not due to mileage but due to age. No other technical remarks.

  • Interior condition:

    Stylish interior. No remarks.

  • Exterior condition:

    Classic sports car red in brilliant condition. It is evident that the car has had careful owners. See the pictures.

  • General condition:

Owner's comment

When I was 19, I owned a Porsche 944S. Many years later, in 2019, I saw an identical one for sale at Johns Garage in Borås. I went to take a look, and it was in such incredibly fine and well-maintained condition that I decided to buy it. After the purchase, I took the car to the legendary Lasse Jönsson here in Karlstad for a service check. They said they had rarely seen such a pristine and untouched 944S as this one. Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to use it, so now it's time for the next enthusiast to take over the car.

Facts about the model

Performance: 0-100 km/h in approximately 8 seconds, with a top speed of 230 km/h. The 944S features a 16-valve engine, unlike the standard Porsche 944, which has an 8-valve engine and thus only 163 horsepower.

Between 1982 and 1991, over 163,000 units of the Porsche 944 were produced. The 944S was manufactured from 1987 to 1989.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
