1969 Porsche 908 for Sale in Germany

This 1969 Porsche 908 for sale in Germany is a works 908 in long-tail form, the flat-eight prototype with which Porsche went after outright wins at Daytona, Le Mans and the Targa Florio before the 917 arrived.

This used Porsche 908 is finished in White. Its petrol engine produces 370 hp and is paired with a manual transmission. The long-tail coupé body extends the 908's rear deck into a tapering tail with fins and a movable flap, a shape drawn for the straights of Le Mans and Daytona rather than for the Targa's corners.

The 908 is the car that turned Porsche from a class winner into a contender for overall victory, and the works long-tails are the rarest survivors of the programme. It is collected by owners who campaign the great historic meetings, and a factory chassis with a Daytona pole and a Le Mans entry in its file is as significant as the type gets.

The dealer highlights Daytona 24h pole position 1969, Le Mans 24h entrant 1975, Targa Florio entrant 1970, One of 18 built & approx. 5 surviving 908 Lontail, Porsche works car, Le Mans Classic & Goodwood 2023 and Fully restored.

FAQ

This Porsche 908 in the European market

Can this Porsche be bought in Germany and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Pleidelsheim, Germany. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or 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.

Who is selling this Porsche 908, and how does a purchase work?

Mechatronik GmbH, a professional dealer in Pleidelsheim, Germany. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Porsche 908 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Pleidelsheim, Germany, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history: LUSSO does not publish these and cannot confirm them.

Is this Porsche 908 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Mechatronik GmbH before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in Germany?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.

Where can I see the wider Porsche market?

LUSSO publishes a market overview for the 908, covering current asking prices in Europe, availability by country, why prices differ, how VAT works on a cross-border purchase and what to compare between two cars.
