The entry
The Porsche 959.
The 959 paired a twin-sequentially-turbocharged flat-six with a computer-controlled all-wheel-drive system that could vary its front-to-rear torque split, previewing technology Porsche later used across the 911 Carrera 4 range.
Group B road rallying was cancelled before the car's intended category existed, but 959-based cars still finished first and second at the 1986 Paris-Dakar rally.
We review your Porsche 959 on the engineering behind it, its own history and its condition, not against a generic pricing model.
What we look for
What we weigh in a Porsche 959.
Every Porsche 959 is reviewed on the same four things as any other entry in the Index. Gaps are normal; tell us what you have. Neither a modification nor outstanding finance rules a car out on its own.
- 01
Documented history: service records and provenance for a Porsche 959, however complete.
- 02
Originality and modifications: what has changed, and why.
- 03
Condition, honestly described, including anything outstanding.
- 04
Paperwork and finance still to sort.

Footnotes
º1Do you buy the Porsche 959?
Porsche 959 entries are considered case by case, filed under Porsche GT & Track as entry Nº 140 / 168. Availability and purchase appetite depend on provenance, specification, history and seller expectations. Submit the details or call, and a senior specialist comes back to you directly.
º2Do you need to see my Porsche 959 before making an offer?
Not for the offer itself. A specialist reviews what you tell us about your Porsche 959 first. Inspection follows once you accept a direct purchase offer, before anything is finalised.
º3How does selling my Porsche 959 to MotorSignet work?
Send the registration or the details of your Porsche 959. A specialist reviews it personally and, if it fits what we buy, makes a direct purchase offer. If you accept, inspection and collection are arranged. Paid in full by bank transfer before your vehicle leaves. We aim to complete within 7 days where checks and paperwork are ready.
º4Do you buy 959s in Komfort or Sport specification?
Both. Tell us the exact specification your car has and we'll review it accordingly.
This page describes a type of car we buy and source directly, not a specific example currently held or for sale.
