Porsche 944 Coupe S FH 2+2 2d (1986/D) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
A lot of car for not a lot of money…
Costs
Keep maintaining as often as possible to avoid big bills. Join a Porsche club (PGB) and use the facilities and contacts available that the club provides.

On the road
Driving
Very comfortable to sit in, but big blind spots caused by wing mirrors and boot spoiler.
Performance
Very quick and a lot of fun. Can feel light at speed (148 mph in a 16v S) and still more on the pedal.

Living with it
Reliability
I have never had a problem in a year now. Total maintenance cost has been servicing at £200.
Image
I like the look. It's amazing how many passers by and other drivers look. Will always be shadowed by the 911 and Boxster, leaving you wishing you had more money!
Comfort
Fantastic… in fact so comfortable that I fell asleep in mine and wrote it off... Oops!
