Thank you very much for your interest in our Porsche Diesel Master 409 408.

As experts have already seen, this is the rarest Porsche example!, with the well-known 7-speed gearbox and the double seats one behind the other.

The 408 Master was actually intended for the American market, and there are a few original European ones delivered. This is also one of the rarest original European ones delivered with hydraulics and lifting gear!

This Master is in very good condition. A few years ago completely rebuilt and beautifully restored.

The 4 cylinder 50HP engine starts immediately and drives fantastic. Engine is equipped with numerous new parts and recently 3-2024 the cylinder heads were newly planed and pressurized.
Engine is also smoke and oil consumption free!
Steering box completely overhauled and also equipped with new quality parts so that this Master can be steered with 2 fingers!
Complete with the rare wheel weights and the 2 original front weights.

The chassis and bodywork were blasted and resprayed at a car body shop in the original Porsche colour.
New wiring, lighting, fuses and battery.
New seats, seat springs and new mudguard seats with cushions.

The 7 gears shift perfectly without any background noise! Brakes work well including the handbrake.
4 new tires.
Lifting device, front and rear PTO working well.

But of course what it's all about is that this Porsche is matching numbers! Engine and chassis number match.

Porsche is equipped with complete German papers, we can help and organize transport worldwide.

TOP investment and only a few of the small editions are known to still exist.

After restoration it has been kept dry and warm in the collection and has occasionally attended small meetings.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
