Where to get a Turbo rear spoiler for a Porsche 997

I’ve just had an email from someone looking for a Turbo-style rear spoiler for a 2005 Porsche 997 Carrera. Well, one option would be source a genuine Turbo engine lid and spoiler, new or used, but what won’t be cheap and I’m not sure how easy it would be to get the electrics working (the [...]

Sometimes it’s best not to sell your Porsche

I’ve just had a phone conversation with a chap wanting to know what his early Porsche 997 Carrera S was worth. It’s hard to give a figure over the phone but I suggested a market value from about £25,000 to £30,000. He agreed that this was the figure he’d had in mind and we then [...]

Porsche 993 Carrera S and Carrera 4S

I’m lucky enough to have two very special – and rare – Porsches in stock at the moment. A 1997 993 Carrera S and a 1998 993 Carrera 4S. Both boast the wide Turbo bodyshell and look simply wonderful. The S is Tiptronic and the 4S is manual. The key visual difference between the two [...]

1998 Porsche 993 Carrera 4S is stunningly good!

Here’s a car I’ve just taken on. A Porsche 993 Carrera 4S that’s in astonishing condition. It really is faultless! The car was registered in February 1998 so I assumed it would have a 1997 build date but, no – the VIN shows that a 1998 manufacture date. That means it’s one of the last ever [...]

Porsche 934 recreation looks like fun

I’ve just spotted this Porsche, which is coming up for sale at  at the Silverstone Auction’s Race Retro sale on 24th-26th February. It’s a replica Porsche 934 ‘Jagermeister’ racing car and, apparently, is an accurate reproduction of the real thing. I like these recreations as they’re an affordable way to own something that looks very special, and it’s not [...]

Porsche 964 Turbo is back!

It looks like I spoke too soon with regard to selling this Porsche 964 Turbo. I’ve just had an email from the buyer saying his work situation has changed and he’s reluctantly having to pull out. This happens – a buyer for the same car just before Christmas had family issues and had to retract [...]

New Official Porsche Centre opening in Portsmouth

A new Porsche Centre is opening in Portsmouth. This is great news for me, as Portsmouth is my nearest city – it’s only about 15 miles away. I’ve long thought that the central south coast of England has been poorly served by Porsche. At present, there’s an OPC in Bournemouth and at Mid Sussex (north [...]

Porsche 964 Turbo should have sold quicker

It’s a strange business selling Porsches. I took on this 964 Turbo almost a year ago and I thought it was have been snapped up very quickly. Priced at just £25,000 it was one of the cheapest 964 Turbos in the UK yet was far from a dog. The price was low because the car [...]
