1954 Porsche 356 Pre-A 1500 Cabriolet Reutter for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1954 Porsche 356 Pre-A 1500 Cabriolet Reutter is a used car showing 1,212 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Ivory with a Chocolate Brown interior.

One of the early, pre-A cabriolets, it was bodied by Reutter in Stuttgart before the 356 A arrived in late 1955. In November 1952 Road & Track had called the new Porsche the car of tomorrow, and cars of this generation are the ones that built its name.

It was restored to a very high standard a few years ago by Serge Heitz in France: the body was stripped to bare metal and rebuilt, then painted in ivory, a shade Porsche offered in the fifties, over chocolate-brown leather. The odometer reading is the distance covered since that work. The seller finds no flaw in the body, rates the car excellent both cosmetically and mechanically, and supplies documentation on its past.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Porsche 356 1500 uses the 1,488 cc air-cooled flat-four, mounted behind the rear axle, rated at 55 PS (40 kW), with a four-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. The pre-A 356 ran until the autumn of 1955, when the 356 A replaced it; the one-piece bent windscreen came in 1952, and the steel bodies were built by Reutter in Stuttgart.

FAQ

This Porsche 356 in the European market

Is this Porsche 356 priced above or below the European market?

At €259,500, it sits at the median of €259,500 for the 7 Porsche 356 advertised in Europe in 2026. 43% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Porsche 356 be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Porsche 356 cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €7,516 in Germany, excluding options. This car is advertised at €259,500, 3353% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1954 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Porsche 356 compare?

1,212 km recorded, against a median of 51,898 km across the Porsche 356 advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Which other Porsche 356 are priced closest to this one?

a 1955 car in Italy at €270,000, and a 1953 car in Italy at €288,850. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.

Can this Porsche 356 be inspected before purchase?
