A Porsche 935 that's covered zero miles is up for auction

Is there enough money in the world to buy this brand-new, Martini-liveried 935?

Published: 28 May 2020

Did you miss the chance to grab one of the 77 Porsche 935s last year? Are you still kicking yourself about it? Rest thine foot for a moment. The Martini-liveried example you see above is set to cross the virtual auction block at the RM Sotheby’s European Sale next month.

The only issue? The track-only Moby Dick tribute cost £750,000 when new (just a few months ago) and having been driven a grand total of ZERO miles, this particular one is estimated to go for between £1,145,300 and £1,235,300. And even that seems conservative.

Yes, you read that correctly. This particular modern-day 935 (the second ever built by Porsche) hasn’t been driven once since it was delivered – instead spending its time amongst what is presumably a rather large collection of cars garaged in Monaco. Heck, the wrapping paper hasn’t even been taken off the iconic laminated wood gear knob.

Someone, anyone, please buy this thing and drive it. That 991.2 GT2 RS ClubSport flat six needs running in, and with 700bhp and 553lb ft of torque on tap it shouldn’t be too much of an arduous process.
