Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3 WLS

Le véhicule en détail

Car magazine wrote, “In 1986, the band Judas Priest released Turbo, a heavy metal album inspired by the Porsche of the same name. Guitarists Glenn Tipton and KK Downing had each bought a 930 Turbo LE after visiting the Zuffenhausen factory, and the record – including songs such as Turbo Lover and Reckless – was tailor-made for adrenalized drives in a hot-headed 911.”  They continued…“The air-cooled six churns into life with an industrial hum. The boost gauge, located front-and-centre inside the rev-counter, lies dormant – but not for long. As soon as the road opens, I go for it. There’s lag, plenty of it, but beyond 3,500rpm the hounds are unleashed. An invisible hand shoves me between the shoulders, the engine note becoming a guttural howl as it romps to the 6,700rpm redline. This is old-school turbo boost: raw, uncouth and addictive. It’s less frisky than a narrow-bodied 911 of the same era, perhaps, but still alive with abundant feedback. Turn in with your fingertips, keep the throttle rock-steady, then feel the rear squat as you accelerate away. Ultimately, the Turbo doesn’t have the dynamic acuity of an RS, or the simple purity of a Carrera. It’s something else again: a larger-than-life super-GT equally at home on the Autobahn as the B1024. And it’s still the coolest looking 911 ever made.”

Our car was supplied new by Monarch Porsche, Aston, in September 1989, this collectable car has been kept and stored meticulously, with a very impressive history file to match that includes service invoices, historic tax discs and MOT certificates and Touring Pass.  With a recent major service including spark plugs, brake fluid change, air conditioning service, and new N-rated tyre set, the Turbo LE is now all set for its new owner to recreate the analogue turbocharged thrills of 1980’s Porsche driving.   Available to view at our London showrooms.
