1995 | Porsche 968

According to Silverstone auctions, up until 2024, this 968 Sport led a fairly quiet life, after which it gained numerous enhancements including its instantly recognisable Rothmans Livery.

Purchased by us in 2023 with the intention of participating in Track and Test days, it has sat in our store ever since and due to the rigors of running a Classic Car Business, it has not seen the light of day. It appears to be very reliable as it starts easily and below is the Silverstone auctions description on which I based our purchase.

They say that improvements to the specification of the 968 Sport, already equipped with a 3.0 litre 4 cylinder light alloy engine, coupled to a 6 speed manual gearbox, included a Wiechers torsion bar for improved rigidity with lowered suspension all round, a competition steering rack, Porsche 993 Turbo front brakes, 968 17” Cup alloys shod with Nangkang semi-slick, road legal tyres, and Poly-bushed adjustable Koni shock absorbers for a stiffer ride. It was professionally repainted in Gran-Prix white with the addition of the very recognisable Porsche Rothmans Graphics, making it stand out from the crowd. It is an ideal candidate as a fast road car of perfect for track days and Club competition.

Not expensive at £15,500
