Porsche Classic Life at the Flywheel Festival

26/6/2018

Porsche Centre Swindon attended the Bicester Heritage Flywheel Festival on the weekend of 23 June to promote their new partnership with Porsche Classic Life. Our team welcomed visitors to explore the first standalone official Porsche Classic facility and learn about the rich history of Porsche.

The Flywheel Festival was well attended, with crowds enjoying a vast display of classic cars and motorcycles both with and without racing histories, as well as an exhibition of vehicles which have appeared in films.

The line-up for the air displays included Spitfires, a Lancaster bomber and a Tiger Moth and also saw two World War II veterans return to the skies. On the ground, Derek Bell MBE treated the crowds to a demonstration of a 2-litre 1965 Porsche 911 powering around the race track.

Porsche Classic Life, located in the old fire station, displayed a number of restored classics including a 930 Turbo, the 924 GTP Le Mans race car, Peter Lovett’s 911 2-litre race car, a 993 Carrera 4 with bodykit and a 924 Turbo. Porsche Centre Swindon’s restored 986 Boxster, currently taking part in the Classic Restoracing Competition, was also on show.

Porsche Classic Life buys and sells classic models, supplies parts and offers a complete maintenance, repair and restoration service. To find out more, call 01793 398 533 and a member of our team would be delighted to help you.
