Let’s start at the beginning, a 1977 Porsche 911 Turbo in gold, or Gazelle/Comet Diamond Metallic to be precise, a PTS colour no less. Just 53,000 miles and matching numbers on this 930 that is waiting for you to force some air through that single KKK turbocharger! 260bhp is still plenty to get you in to trouble with this unbalanced beast. With almost three times the power but plenty more grip with it, the Ruf CTR3. Wider, lower and a longer wheelbase the CTR3 platform is not borrowed from Porsche but specifically designed by the same people who built Ford’s Le Mans winning GT race car. There’s two KKK turbochargers, 682bhp and a six-speed sequential gearbox all waiting to be used as this pristine example has covered less than 1700 miles from new, what a crime! Finally, a limited edition 2019 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet. Part of the exclusive series - of which there were just 200 cabriolets built. This Golden Yellow Metallic 911, will hit 0-60 in under 3 seconds and go on beyond 200mph.
