In the early '70s, Porsche had designs on racing a turbocharged version of the 911, in support of which they planned to create a homologation special along the lines of the Carrera 2.7 RS. A rule change negated the need to sell a precise number of street legal race vehicles, but the company continued the project anyway and the 911 Turbo or 930 was born. Introduced at the Paris Motor Show of 1974 and produced from 1975 to 1989, the 930 was the fastest production car available on the German market. It was based around the Carrera RS 3.0, the engine from which was modified courtesy of turbo technology originally developed for the 917/30 CAN-AM cars. Initially, power output was 260bhp but from 1978 it was increased to 300bhp by raising the engine capacity to 3.3-litres. To accommodate the extra performance, the 930 sported revised suspension, larger brakes and a wider rear wheel/tyre package was squeezed under specially flared arches. Adding this level of power to the already oversteer-prone handling of the 911 created a car that was not for the faint hearted. In skilled hands, however, a 930 will show a clean pair of heels to most rivals.

This rare slant nose UK righthand drive ‘Flachbau’ Turbo Cabriolet was first registered on 21 April 1983, carrying at the time the highly appropriate number plate ‘TUR80W’. Now displaying the non-transferable mark JBW 91Y, it has had eight former keepers and features a Kremer style rear spoiler. Fitted with a tracker, the car is offered with two sets of keys and benefits from the fitment of a new hood cover. Finished in red with red / white leather seats piped white complimented by red carpets it currently registers some 72,000 miles and is offered with Swansea V5c and current MoT to February 2021.
