I would be much more inclined to mount a small triler hitch on an intact 944 and tow a 4'x6' utility trailer when more capacity is needed.
Not very usefull? It probably saves the owner more than what the car is worth each year in taxes. If you use it as a fun car to drive yourself and possibly a friend around, a few extra $K in your pocket each year becomes worth it.

"Drivers purchasing second-hand cars will need to be particularly wary because what could seem a bargain could become a tax liability as HMRC charges car benefits on the list price; the amount the vehicle would be purchased for if new. "

Welcome to the ridiculous world of trying to put extra tax the rich to pay for government programs...By listing it as a commercial "light truck", it avoids a lot of various taxes. If its your daily driver to get around with, that is huge.
