Here comes the Summer: 1974 Porsche 911S Targa

January 29, 2010

Not too long ago, a 2.7 911S Targa from the mid ’70s was amongst the lowest of the low: a 911 that often sold for less than a 944 in good condition. Thanks to the ungalvanised chassis, many of the cars well used from an early age have caught the rust bug and – due [...]

Safari sorts the Men from the Boys

November 27, 2009

It’s the end of day 5 in Kenya: half-way stage of the 2009 East African Safari Classic Rally. Tuthill Porsche’s efforts have not gone entirely according to plan but then, this is a marathon – not a sprint.
