WHY THE PORSCHE 924'S TIME HAS COME

Porsche 924 Turbo

Porsche styling tends to run in parallel to motoring fashion, so ageing models look less dated than rivals. That’s great for buyers of ‘previously enjoyed’ modern cars who like the world to think that they’ve bought new, but it also delays the onset of classic appreciation. I remember being refused entry to a classic car gathering because my 27-year-old 911 Carrera 3.0 was ‘not a classic’. 

The clean, slippery shape of the 924 also held it back, along with its VW associations and a vice-free driving experience that was considered a bit characterless. Now, at last, its virtues of faithful chuckability, tough usability and, yes, its period looks are starting to draw new admirers. Perfect timing for a detailed buying guide in the latest issue of Classic Cars magazine, which shows how to buy a good example for less than £3k and something very smart for just £4k. Tempting, isn’t it?

Buying advice and market analysis is part of 16 pages of buying information in every issue of Classic Cars magazine, including Quentin Willson’s Smart Buys, Russ Smith’s Market Watch, in-depth buying guides and Ads on Test.
