The Porsche 968 embodies a great combination of speed, practicality and small production numbers, and as a result has established a unique position in the world of classic Porsche enthusiasts. Clean, low mileage examples have become both rare and expensive. It is essentially the successor to the 944, with a classic GT layout of front engine and rear wheel drive, and almost perfect weight distribution. It is a real head-turner, with a classic body shape incorporating a low nose line and wide wheel arches.
The engine is a sophisticated version of the 3-litre, four-cylinder, 16-valve unit first introduced on the Porsche 944 S2 - it is all-alloy, with VarioCam for maximum power throughout its speed range. It generates 240 bhp at 6200 rpm, and at the time of its production had the highest displacement per cylinder of any car engine and the highest torque output of any unblown 3-litre. Porsche spent a lot of time and money in the development of this engine, and it definitely shows.
The car also has all-round independent suspension, using McPherson struts at the front end and semi-trailing aluminium arms at the rear with torsion-bar springs and separate dampers. This, in combination with the perfectly-balanced weight distribution, leads to magnificent handling.
This 1993 'K'-registration Cabriolet is finished in Slate Grey metallic, with grey leather interior and 4-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. The vendor advises that it runs and drives extremely well, and has full service history with many receipts. With Porsche 911 prices going through the roof, it represents a good opportunity to get into a rare and classic Porsche at a relatively affordable price. It will be supplied with a year's MOT and a full service.
