Afternoon guys
popped in to my OPC today to sort our some problem keys; while the parts guys were running around trying to fix my problem I had a mouch around the showroom and came across this....
Got chatting to the sales guy who pointed out its a Club Coupe and one of just 13 ever made. There's 1 in a Porsche museum and 11 others around the world; this was the only one that came to the UK and the only right hand drive Club Coupe.
The sales guy said that you had to be invited by Porsche to own one of these - even then you were entered into a lottery to see if you'd be the luck one to own one.
This car is so rare that its insured for £1/2m....
He was also telling me that they're all the same colour and all had the cocoa hide interior and that each of the 13 cars made had the opening handle of the glove box engraved with the owners name on it. Sadly the owner of this one, Mike Windsor, passed away a month or so ago...
Apparently Mike had driven this quite regularly - the car has just 6,000 mile on the clock.
Have to say it looked fairly plane yet stunning in its own unique way...
please forgive the poor quality piccies - taken on my smartphone.
