Another Ebay find

That could be quite a good buy.
There was a company that did 944 Estate conversions as a standard product. They would also tweak the engines and suspension. If this is from the same stable it is far more than a bodge in a lock up, although I can't remember if they had TUV approval and the like.
I would think the 2 ltr engine is a miss print.

Literally translated:
The carriage has originally still driven none 25,000 km, and is not therefore also in a situation of new distinguish. He is provide with 2.0 the turbo engine with 177 PK, and is possible therefore best in the daily movement. He has been at present registered in Belgium, and can in the Netherlands be therefore also registered. Next year is these carriage 25 years old and can then as a oldtimer branch-favourable drive, ideal therefore as second car, loses never more in value.
And this got me Googling.......

I'm fairly sure thats a DP Motorsport conversion http://www.dp-motorsport.de/prototypes.htm
They do quite a bit of 944 customisation http://www.dp-motorsport.de/new_products944.htm
(including the splitter on John Sims car [
])
The Ebay car has already had 24 bids in the first day!

DP Motorsport then, thanks Mel. Not that seven versions in 10+ years can be called a standard product, but I like the bit about the estate being stiffer than the standard car [8D]
And they must be good 'cos they made my front splitter. [

Mel,
I saw a Ferrari Venice driving around Regent's Park a couple of weeks ago. Didn't really think much of it as I thought it was probably a conversion job 'a la Jag Shooting Break' before I realised where it must have come from and who owned it !! Looked very nice, if ever so slightly like a Peugeot 306 Estate !!!!

Mk2 turbo certainly did..........and PK is the abbreviation for PfederKraft.....or HorsePower.
I'd be interested in it as a tow car but I suspect I would end up with no car to go home in after cannibalising it for a race [

Melv,
I was going to comment about PS, but decided against it, didn't want to get too technical, plus I couldn't remember if the 177hp was SAE or DIN in the first place & couldn't be bothered looking it up[]
I don't think the PK is a spelling mistake.
My second language is Swedish & in Swedish it's HP is HK for HästKraft. Don't forget that the page is on ebay Netherlands and is in Dutch, not German.
Standing back & waiting for a native speaker to correct me
Tot ziens
Corrected because I was lost & thought I was in Flanders instead of The Netherlands []
Corrected again because Genk is in Belgium, so I was right in the first place

I knew having to learn Afrikaans at school would one day have a use, like learning to throw peanuts in the air and catching them in your mouth... takes many hours to master and only impresses drunk people....
It is almost identical save for the spelling and a couple of other bits... I understand more Flemmish than Dutch so it may be either..
Here goes...
The car has not yet reached 25 000km and is its condition is indistiguishable from new. It is equiped with a 2.0 litre turbo motor with 177 'PK' and can be used daily. It is in Belguim at the moment and can also be delivered in the Netherlands. Next year the car will be 25 years old and can be used in oldtimers 'no idea' driven, ideal as second car and will not devalue....
Not a million miles away from the net translation...

Oh well, I knew what the K was but assumed the P, and mispellt the K[]
Melv, you made me go all the way upstairs & get my Dutch dictionary out []..........and the correct translation is in fact Paardekracht, PK
I tend to use Google for translation, but Dutch grammar is harder for computers to understand that even German, hence the lack of Dutch translation facilities on the net. Thanks for the link to Dictionary.com
