Unveiled at the Geneva Salon in 1977 and voted Car of the Year for 1978, the 928 was intended as an upmarket replacement for the long-running 911, but in the event Porsche's rear-engined classic would outlive its younger sibling. The front-engined 928's stylish hatchback body used aluminium for the doors, bonnet and front wings, while ingenious impact-resistant 'bumpers' made of colour-matched plastic were incorporated in the nose and tail. The V8 engine - Porsche's first - displaced 4.5 litres and produced 234bhp. A five-speed transaxle gearbox or three-speed automatic were the transmission options. In 1979 the 928 'S' with 4.6-litre engine arrived and then in 1986 the model was further revised and restyled, becoming the 928 'S4'. Today this underrated modern classic is increasingly seen as offering exceptional value for money.

Finished in maroon with tan interior, this automatic transmission Porsche 928 was purchased from New South Wales, Australia in May 2021 and imported into the UK. The previous owner had the car for over seven years and in 2014 it won the Porsche Club of NSW Concours d'Elegance. The car has just had new brake discs, pads and handbrake shoes fitted, and is described as in fine running order and in great condition both inside and out. However, it is seldom used and thus is offered for sale. The car comes with a V5C document and current MoT.
