Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo has been extensively converted into a track-focused weapon, featuring custom bodywork, a stripped interior with a roll cage, and significant engine enhancements. While presented with a unique "dazzle camouflage" paint job, it exhibits several cosmetic flaws including paint cracks, rust, and a delaminating rear screen, alongside mechanical notes like a stuck odometer and the absence of a current MOT, positioning it as a project or enthusiast vehicle.
Condition
5
The car has undergone significant modifications for track use, including a stripped interior, roll cage, and custom bodywork. While the paintwork has a unique finish and the exterior has no major dents, there are cosmetic issues like paint cracking, rust around the tailgate, and a delaminating rear screen. The interior has rust in the driver's footwell and a broken boot lock cable. Mechanically, it has been upgraded but the odometer is stuck and it lacks a current MOT.

Description
Some of you may remember this Porsche 944 Turbo from the Discovery TV show when Goblin Works Garage * is rumoured to have spent £17,000 in turning it into a dedicate track weapon.
Probably best known for its WW1-inspired dazzle camouflage, which will destroy your enemy’s, competitor’s ability to judge how fast you’re closing in on them, the seller bought ‘E278 FRO’ from us around four-and-a-half years ago.
Clearly a man for whom the best isn’t quite good enough, he invested a further £10,000+ in making it road legal with a set of Porsche alloy wheels and more appropriate tyres, a pair of BB racing seats, adjustments to the roll cage, and reinstalling the lights.
Now slightly tamer and fully road-registered, he’s only selling it because he isn’t able to use it as much as he’d hoped.
