Porsche 924 | 1983 Highlights: – 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, petrol, manual transmission – 82596 km on the odometer – Brown metallic paintwork with Porsche side lettering – Patterned fabric sport seats with brown leather trim The private seller offers for sale this 1983 Porsche 924, powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, paired with a manual transmission. Finished in brown metallic with Porsche lettering along the flanks, this 924 has covered 82596 km. The interior combines a brown dashboard and carpets with patterned fabric sport seats trimmed in brown leather, and the door sills carry Limited Edition plates. As the seller points out, the dashboard shows small cracks caused by exposure to the sun. The large glass tailgate opens onto a practical luggage area behind the two rear seats, a reminder that the 924 was conceived as a sports car for everyday use. With its period colour combination and classic proportions, the car captures the spirit of early-1980s Porsche design. The Porsche 924 was introduced in 1976 as the company’s new entry-level model. Originally developed as a joint project with Volkswagen, it became the first production Porsche with a front-mounted, water-cooled engine, and its commercial success helped secure the company’s finances in the late 1970s. More than 150,000 examples were built until 1988, and the 924 laid the foundations for the 944, the 968 and later front-engined Porsche models. Its transaxle layout, with the engine at the front and the gearbox at the rear axle, gives the 924 near-ideal weight distribution and the balanced, communicative handling for which it is still praised. The 2.0-litre engine delivers 125 hp, enough for lively performance in a light and aerodynamic body, while the long bonnet, pop-up headlights and large wraparound rear window give the car its unmistakable profile. Today the 924 is increasingly recognised as an accessible and rewarding way into classic Porsche ownership. Condition of the bodywork & paint 4 — Very Good.
