Link to the e-bay listing in the comments
1984 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am | First Registered 1987 | V8 Manual | Historic Vehicle
Well, this is an advert I never thought I'd be writing!
After several wonderful years of owning my very own KITT from the iconic 1980s television series *Knight Rider*, the time has unfortunately come for me to say goodbye.
This is genuinely a very reluctant sale. KITT has been an absolute pleasure to own, but with other cars and commitments, I'm simply not getting the opportunity to enjoy him as much as he deserves.
For anyone who knows their Knight Rider cars, this really is something special.
The car was lovingly built and maintained by someone I know personally, who is extremely knowledgeable and well respected within the Knight Rider community. The attention to detail throughout is absolutely fantastic, and it's clear that an enormous amount of time, effort and money has gone into creating this wonderful machine.
**Specification and features**
- 1984 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, first registered in 1987.
- V8 engine with manual gearbox.
- Iconic KITT front nose cone with working red scanner.
- Fully illuminated Knight Rider dashboard and digital instrumentation.
- Twin dashboard monitors and overhead console.
- Talking KITT system with Turbo Boost, turbine noises and various other iconic Knight Rider sound effects.
- Correct-style PMD seats with matching upholstery and materials.
- Detachable KITT steering wheel, with a conventional steering wheel also included for easier driving.
- Remote-control and keypad immobiliser.
- Beautifully maintained interior in exceptional condition.
- Superb black bodywork, recently refreshed and repainted approximately six months ago.
- Two substantial ring-binder folders of paperwork, receipts, servicing records and conversion history.
**Condition and history**
I cannot emphasise enough just how well loved and maintained this car has been.
The bodywork is absolutely stunning, especially considering the car is over 40 years old. The interior is equally impressive, and the attention to detail throughout the conversion is fantastic.
Mechanically, KITT runs and drives absolutely superbly. Everything operates as it should, and to the best of my knowledge, the car requires nothing.
The electronics, illuminated dashboard, sound effects and various KITT functions are all working beautifully.
**Historic vehicle status**
The car is currently registered in the historic vehicle taxation class and benefits from zero-rated vehicle tax and MOT exemption.
The new owner will still need to ensure the vehicle is taxed annually, even though the tax is free. MOT exemption does not remove the requirement to keep the vehicle in a roadworthy condition.
**A very special car**
This isn't simply an old Pontiac with a flashing red light on the front. It's a beautifully executed Knight Rider replica that has been built, maintained and cherished by genuine enthusiasts.
Whether you're a lifelong Knight Rider fan, a collector of iconic television cars or simply someone who appreciates something completely different, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a truly special machine.
Everywhere KITT goes, he attracts attention, smiles and conversations. It's one of those cars that brings back childhood memories for so many people.
I've had several fantastic years with him, and although I'll be genuinely sad to see him go, I'd much rather he went to another enthusiast who will continue to enjoy and appreciate him than have him sitting in my collection.
**KITT deserves to be driven, enjoyed and shown off.**
Serious enquiries are very welcome. I'm more than happy to discuss the car, its history and the conversion in further detail with genuinely interested buyers.
Thank you for looking.
