Porsche 944 Coupe Turbo SE FH 2d (1989/G) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Fiesta purchase, Porsche maintenance.
Costs
Budget a couple of grand a year, and you will have money left over, and a stupid grin.

On the road
Driving
Sharp, fast, informative.
Performance
250Bhp, Monster boost, huuuge big fat tyres. Six months on, and its more than capable of leaving me literally breathless from a quick minihoon along ""private roads"".
-
Living with it
Reliability
Snapped ARB, and loose hose as bad as it gets so far( but the loose hose diagnosed EXACTLY like a blown Turbo, so lots of nervous peeks un der the bonnet)
Image
Its a Porsche, so you get the hedgehog jokes, and the boot dated wayyyy before 82, but the nose and flared rear arches still give me shivers
Comfort
Sports seats, and hardcore suspension. It's not a Roller…
-
Security and Service
Security
Its nearly 20 years old, so most people don't know what it is, and the other half see the red LED, and walk away.
Service
Massively knowledgeable indy network, value varies, but avoid OPC like plague....
