EXTERIOR
An all together more simple and humble design exercise over it’s bigger brother, the 912 demonstrates that less is indeed more. The profile and proportions are hard to beat and with an incredible colour, Slate Grey in this case. The result is something that comes incredibly close to achieving classic car perfection.
Restored some 10 years ago the quality of the craftmanship is second-to-none; as to be expected when esteemed Porsche expert Robin Dalwood has been involved. With chrome accents aplenty, your eye moves across the car to pick out numerous details that contribute to a sophisticated style and stunning design.
Having been carefully finessed by our in-house team the car presents quite beautifully.
INTERIOR
Opening the low slung lightweight door you are met by a stunning cabin space, which is an experience in itself, before that first turn of the key and that fantastic flat four warble.
The dark grey leather seats are immaculate front and back, complimented by a beautiful aluminium trim with 912 dash inscription and wooden rimmed steering wheel. Trimmed by Gabbat & Brown of Lancashire the interior looks just as it did in the 60’s – wholly original allied with carpets, mats and belts as new.
Instantly recognisable, the classic green dials and dash set the tone for a well designed interior focused around the driver; setting the standard for many generations to come.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Thanks to a full engine and gearbox rebuild courtesy of Chicane Classics in 2012, the flat 4 not only presents in immaculate condition but performs admirably on test. With adjustments made to the heater boxes and exchanger flaps, as well as an oil and plugs service just a handful of miles ago, the car is in rude health.
Where it may lack in performance against it’s flat 6 counterpart, the character of the 4 cylinder is quite unique with all together more sensible running costs.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
With an abundance of bright accents throughout, the crested chrome wheels look just right against the dark bodywork.
This stunning 912 was originally specified with these wheels – now accompanied by period correct Michelin XZX rubber on all four corners.
With disc brakes all round the car the car slows down with a minimum of fuss.
