1982 Porsche 930 Canadian Car Euro Spec Excellent Driver Well Maintained on 2040-cars
Upper Tantallon, Nova Scotia, Canada
1982 Porsche 930 (911 Turbo) Vin WP0JA0935CS050089 Mileage is in kilometres In 1982 eighty nine 930s were imported to Canada, so this
particular car was the last one for that year.
They made less than a thousand in 1982 overall, and the Canadian cars
are Euro spec – 300 hp with a nice stance.
Paint to sample, limited slip, sports seats. Car was sold new in Toronto, Ontario. Particulars on the first two owners are in
the original owner’s manual and service booklet, which are in new condition. The third owner purchased the car in April of
1988 at 59.3K kms, and I have the invoice.
The original build sheet and service records from 1982 to 1988 are not
available, but the third owner maintained good records and plenty of regular
maintenance was performed, with most of the maintenance performed by Riegel
Tuning in Calgary, Alberta. In 1996 the
car was inspected by the owner’s insurance company and was showing 129.4k
Kms. There is an invoice on file dated
2000 for a windows out repaint - $6300 at 131K kms. The condition of the paint and panels is excellent,
with the usual stone chips on the hood and mirrors after 35K kms of
travel. I spoke with the owner who paid
for this work, and he has advised that it was done to spruce the car up for
sale, and not to repair damage or rust. There
are absolutely no rust, dents, dings. The
underside is solid with original undercoating and no corrosion. In 2002 the car changed hands at 136.3K kms and in April,
2005 an engine out service and reseal was performed at 141,416 kms – cost was
$6,892.51. Among the most significant
service items were a new clutch, new flywheel, and upgraded chain tensioner
kit. Compression was 130 in all 6
cylinders, and leakdown results were 3% for 1, 2, 3, 2% for 4, 5% for 5,
6. In 2006 the car was sold to the fellow I purchased it
from, and there are spotty records for the occasional service and minor
maintenance. Brake master and alternator
were replaced. When he had it appraised
in 2011 there were 155K Kms on the odometer, which was the mileage when I took
delivery in March, 2012. I interviewed 3 of the previous 5 owners who had owned
the car since 1988. This 930 has been
stored in garages during winters. The
car has an expensive Alpine period correct stereo system that includes a multiple
CD changer, amplifier, digital receiver, and 4 speakers. All
glass is perfect, and the front windshield was recently replaced. I have a detailed summary of the service I’ve performed
since taking possession (receipts are available) and have been fastidious about
the basic maintenance (new rear brake rotors and pads, fuel injectors, plugs
and wires, adjust valves, change all filters, cap, rotor, O rings, wheel
alignment, new tires, adjust clutch, etc….).
I keep the car in a heated garage
and have not driven it in the rain or on the track. All electrical and mechanical items work as
they should except for the power antenna.
The AC hasn’t been charged since before the last owner bought it in
2006, but all parts are intact. This car runs strong and quite remarkably, does not leak
one drop of oil. I may add up to 200 mls
between oil changes (I change the oil every 1500 miles), which for a 166K km
turbo motor (100K miles) is noteworthy – the motor does not smoke, even on
boost. If it sits for a week + there may
be a puff of smoke on start up. The car
pulls well through the entire rev range, the 4 speed shifts as it should with
no binding or grinding. I note in the
service history that the syncros have received work in the past. No mods – this car is bone stock except for
the stereo. The interior is in excellent condition for the age and
miles, although the bolster in the driver seat is getting tired. It is not torn, but the piping is frayed and
faded. Carpets are excellent. Two of the wheels have a smearing of minor
curb rash, and the tires are almost new.
Interior has a rich leather smell. The car includes the original tool kit and air pump, and
the spare. Includes Porsche 930 service manual on CD, as
well as all records, owners, and warranty manuals. I would not hesitate to drive this across
the Continent, it has been that reliable.
Don’t let the mileage dissuade you – this car has been driven an average
of 5K Kms per year over it’s life, and has been well maintained. I reserve the right to end the auction early. For the successful bidder a $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of auction closing. Payment is full is due within 5 days of closing. Local pickup preferred, and I will work with the buyer to arrange for transportation or shipping at the buyer's expense. |

Do we finally know which hybrid hypercar is fastest?
Sun, Oct 11 2015In order to properly compare and contrast the performance characteristics of competitive automobiles, a number of variables have to be sorted out. For instance, to diminish the human component, the same driver must be used for each lap, that driver has to be capable of wringing the maximum level of performance from each vehicle, and they should all be checked and prepared to make sure they are within manufacturer specs before hitting the track. Speaking of which, the conditions at the track – and, of course, it goes without saying that the cars have to be tested at the same location, on the same day – have to be as similar as possible. Naturally, arranging all of these variables is difficult, if not impossible, and that's especially true when the contenders are the Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1, and Porsche 918 Spyder. As range-topping models from well-established performance players, these three hybrid hypercars are often lumped into the same category. But which one is fastest? Well, that's been a tough nut to crack, in part because the manufacturers themselves haven't always been willing to play along when it comes time to test these machines head-to-head-to-head. And so, with all that (probably unnecessary) preamble out of the way, we present to you the video above, in which this particular vehicular pedestal is toppled. All three cars are owned by a man named Paul Bailey, they were tested on the same day at the Silverstone circuit in England, and each had British Touring Car driver Mat Jackson at the helm. We're not going to spoil the results, other than to say that all three vehicles were incredibly fast and within spitting distance of one another at the finish line, as you would expect. Intriguingly, this video is said to be part one in a three-part series, so we have more Ferrari vs. McLaren vs. Porsche action to look forward to.

The hottest modern sports cars rendered as rally racers
Thu, Jan 14 2016The modern-day World Rally Championship a monumental amount of fun to watch – I should know, as I recently was lucky enough to head to the UK to watch WRC Wales Rally GB – but even the most monstrous of the current WRC cars are based on fairly pedestrian European hatchbacks. Back in the heyday of rally, the Group B era in the 1980s, much hotter cars were the basis of even more incredible competition machines, for the most part. Take the exotic Ford RS200, or the Lancia Delta S4 with its twin-charged engine. And the hatchback-based Group B cars were bonkers, too. So what would some of our favorite modern cars look like if Group B had never ended? A British site named CarWow hired an artist to reimagine everything from the Rolls-Royce Wraith to the Porsche 911 as a retro-inspired rally car, and they were kind enough to let us share the results in the gallery above. The gallery features an Alfa Romeo Giulia in Martini livery, an Audi TT in classic Ur-Quattro colors, a Fiat 500 Abarth sporting massive flares and a hood blister full of auxiliary lights, a new Ford Mustang in RS200 livery, a Lancia Delta in Alitalia colors, a Porsche 911 in Rothmans livery, a Renault-Alpine in classic blue, a Rolls-Royce Wraith tribute to the Jules cologne Corniche Coupe, and a relatively modern-looking VW Touran. So far, the favorite around the office is the incredible Mercedes-Benz S-Class that is an homage to the wonderful 300 SEL 6.8 AMG "Red Pig" that essentially put AMG on the map. Check out the gallery above and see which one you like the best. Related Video:

Enter to win this giveaway or any other Omaze experience now through April 23, 2021 and receive 500 extra entries into any campaign plus a chance to win $10K with code GOGREEN500. Simply add the discount at checkout. Whether you like it or not, there will come a day when most, if not all of us, will be driving electric cars. For some of us that day can't come soon enough, and in honor of Earth Day we've put together a list of our favorite car giveaways so you can save some green while being green. Win a 2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S and $20,000 - Enter Here If there’s one thing Porsche is good at, itÂ’s making fast, beautiful cars, and the Taycan Turbo S is no exception. Making 750 horsepower, 774 lb-ft of torque and a top speed of 161 miles per hour, punching the accelerator will surely throw you back in your seat. In fact, its 0-60 time of 2.6 seconds matches that of the quickest Porsche 911 ever made, the Turbo S. The difference between this Taycan Turbo S and that 911 Turbo S, of course, is that the only reason youÂ’ll ever need to stop off at a gas station is to fill up on snacks. That and the fact the Taycan doesn't actually have a turbo anywhere in the car. We wouldnÂ’t be reaching for a bag of FlaminÂ’ Hot Cheetos, though, because this incredibly comfortable leather interior is immaculate, and weÂ’d hope to keep it that way. Enter here for a chance to win this prize worth $220,000. Win a Himalaya Land Rover Defender 110 EV and $20,000 - Enter Here The Land Rover Defender is an icon: an intense, luxurious off-roader that turns heads and can crawl up nearly anything. The problem? For the past 20+ years it hasn't been available in the United States and it's never been what youÂ’d call environmentally friendly. But this Defender is different. ItÂ’s vintage, restored by Himalaya and itÂ’s all-electric. At 275 horsepower, you wonÂ’t be thrown back in your seat, but the 406 lb-ft of torque helps make this an incredibly capable rock crawler.
