The Porsche 928 was a sports-GT sold by Porsche AG of Germany from 1978 to 1995. Originally intended to replace the company's iconic 911, the 928 attempted to combine the power, poise, and handling of a sports car with the refinement, comfort, and equipment of a luxury sedan to create what some Porsche executives thought would be a vehicle with wider appeal than the compact, quirky and sometimes difficult 911. The body, styled by Wolfgang Möbius under guidance of Anatole Lapine, was mainly galvanized steel, but the doors, front fenders, hood, and roof were aluminum in order to make the car more lightweight. It had a substantial luggage area accessed via a large hatchback with new polyurethane elastic bumpers were integrated into the nose and tail and covered in body-coloured plastic; an unusual feature for the time that aided the car visually and reduced its drag. The 928 qualified as a 2+2, having two small seats in the rear. Both rear seats could be folded down to enlarge the luggage area, and both the front and rear seats had sun visors for occupants. Porsche's design and development efforts paid off during the 1978 European Car of the Year competition where the 928 won ahead of the BMW 7-series and the Ford Granada. The 928 is the only sports car so far to have won this competition, where the usual winners are mainstream hatchbacks and saloons from major European manufacturers. This is regarded as proof of how advanced the 928 was compared to its contemporaries. Presented in arctic white with a contrasting dark blue leather interior and white piping , this lefthand drive grand tourer is equipped with a factory spoiler and Carrera Cup alloy wheels. The up-rated stereo is a Kenwood unit with an additional JVC CD autochanger and Clifford alarm. Supplied with an valid MoT test and road tax, this example is offered at no reserve.
