More details:

The vehicle is presented in part-restored condition, with a number of major items of work having been completed, some smaller / cosmetic issues remaining. I’ve greatly enjoyed having this 944, but a house move means sadly it has to go now. I have owned the car for just over three years. Some maintenance and modifications have been completed myself, and the car has featured a couple of times on Youtube channel Pedalbox.show. Larger jobs, MOTs, servicing and repairs have been completed by Porsche Specialist GT-One.

Tyres – Matched set of Toyo Proxes with good tread all round. (205/55/16 front, 225/50/16 rear)

Brakes – Newly fitted EBC Yellowstuff pads and EBC grooved and slotted discs on front, rears standard, handbrake system caused MOT fail last year and was extensively refurbished by GT-One.

Oil – Last changed less than 5k miles ago.

Bodywork / paintwork – Gulf colour scheme is paint rather than a wrap, was completed prior to my purchase of the car. Gulf and other decals. The underlying colour is a metallic bronze. Some cracking and discolouration in places as visible in pictures.
