1995 Porsche 968

Background & information

The car was purchased in 2004 by the seller's father, racing driver Boo Brasta, who fixed it up in the 2000s (2004 onwards), when it had been crash damaged (sheet metal damage). The previous owner was English and worked for Volvo Cars' design department. The car is originally a standard968, but has some upgrades such as the M030 sports chassis. The car also has the removable sunroof which is easily put in the luggage. The car was delivered to its first owner in England on December 19, 1994, and is a 1995 model year. Only 258 Porsche 968 Coupes were built that year (worth noting that more than twice as many 968 CSs were built that year), making the car very rare. In total (ie production years 1992-1995) just over 12,780 were built in total - to compare with over 170,000 of the model 944 during its lifetime. The car is originally from England, but registered as left-hand drive (LHD English registration number: M905T0C)

The equipment specification of this particular car is very similar to the Porsche 968 Sport which was first released in the UK in January 1994 with the same standard chassis as the Club Sport. For the Sport model included, central locking, electric tailgate, electric windows, electric mirrors, cloth rear seats. The main difference between the CS and Sport is that the Sport has the larger wiring harness and battery - for the extra electrics that have been put in, electric windows ,tailgate release, central locking, etc. It also has rear seats, unlike the CS, which has front seats with more comfort.
