Description from the seller
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Iconic Porsche Junior tractor from 1959
• Single-cylinder diesel engine in excellent preserved condition and running order
• Kept under roof in a exhibition hall
• Aesthetics well cared for in red with white accents
HISTORY/GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The Porsche Junior is one of the most iconic agricultural tractors produced by Porsche-Diesel Motorenbau GmbH between the late 1950s and early 1960s. Designed originally in the 1930s as the "People's Tractor" (Volksschlepper) by Ferdinand Porsche, this model features an air-cooled single-cylinder diesel engine. This 1959 unit is in excellent preserved condition and cared for, kept in a closed hall as part of an exhibition alongside other vehicles. The tractor is located in Jumilla (Murcia, Spain).
EXTERIOR:
The bodywork is in excellent condition, with no scratches or dents. The paint finish is bright red with the characteristic white decorative stripe on the hood and the logo "Porsche Diesel / Junior" on the sides. The front grille, the fenders, and the chassis structures are well preserved and free of visible corrosion.
INTERIOR:
The cockpit features a rigid single-seat in a classic style finished in white, in very good condition. The three-spoke steering wheel and the steering column are in good condition. The exposed controls and instrumentation appear in their original factory configuration.
MECHANICS:
The tractor is powered by its single-cylinder diesel engine, which starts and runs correctly. All electrical installation is complete and in perfect working order. The agricultural tires are mounted on white wheels with red hubs and are in very good preserved condition, retaining a deep tread.
DOCUMENTS:
The tractor does not have documentation (it is sold without registration papers).
It is recommended to inspect the vehicle in person in Jumilla (Murcia, Spain) before bidding. The buyer is responsible for pickup and transportation. Transportation costs and any possible export processing are to be borne by the buyer.

Disclaimer
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.
