Volkswagen's decision not to proceed with their designed-by-Porsche 914 replacement led to the latter taking on the project themselves. Launched in November 1975, the resulting 924 drew heavily on Volkswagen/Audi components: the two-litre, four-cylinder, overhead-camshaft engine being a development of the Audi 100's, and the four-speed transaxle a VW unit. A five-speed Porsche-designed gearbox and improvements to the suspension were early developments, and in 1978 came the first truly high-performance 924 - the Turbo. The latter's extra 45bhp raised top speed to around 150mph.

First registered on 1st July 1980, this 924 had travelled some 96, 000 miles when the car was selected to participate in a nationwide competition run by Porsche. This well-documented concours level restoration was carried out in-house at the official Porsche centre to compete against the country's other official dealers. There was an edge to this friendly competition with each official workshop keen to show the nation they were superior!

Three main philosophies drove Porsche Centre Bournemouth's publicised account of the restoration: to find a car that needed the most attention in all areas, to find a rare model and to retain the integrity of the original car. They state that to achieve their third objective, it was imperative to approach the restoration methodically, beginning with a complete vehicle strip-down and assessment of the interior, bodywork and mechanical work required.

With a comprehensive bare metal repaint in the original Guards Red and a subsequent complete nut/bolt rebuild restoration, documented photographically and together with corresponding Porsche invoices included within its history file. An understated 550+ man-hours, this Porsche 924 Turbo must be the best example in the world. Should anyone look to replicate and use official Porsche workshop labour complete with all genuine Porsche-supplied parts, this restoration would have an estimated cost more than £150,000.

After completion, Porsche recreated the original 1979 advert using this car and a framed copy of each sits neatly with the full photographic restoration folder and extensive invoice file on display. The car remained the property of the Official Porsche Centre Bournemouth until 2021, proudly displayed in their state-of-the-art showroom before moving to a private collection from which it is offered today. Having only covered minimal miles since the restoration, this rare 924 remains in exemplary condition and would fit into any serious Porsche collection. Consigned by Mathew Priddy
