1966 Porsche 912 (est. 50,000–60,000 euros) 

“The longest, most difficult, and most perilous motorcycle journey ever attempted,” is how The Bicycling World and Motorcycle Review described New Yorker Carl Steams Clancy’s circumnavigation of the world in 1912. Clancy’s steed was a Henderson Four, and if there was any doubt that the Detroit-based manufacturer built the fastest and most robust motorcycles, his 19,000-mile feat of endurance dispelled it. 

As the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland and its French colleagues were preparing for an exceptional season-opener during the 24 Hours of Le Mans weekend, the new safety car for the series, a Porsche Taycan, was poised to hit the road from the Porsche Experience Centre in Hockenheim to the Circuit de la Sarthe via Reims and Paris.⁣⁣ 

Aston Martin’s DB6 might play second fiddle to the DB5 in terms of value, perceived desirability and cinematic fame, but no one can argue with the fact that is has garnered a level of royal approval in a way that its predecessor never managed.

Everybody knows that when it comes to limited-edition modern-era Porsches from Zuffenhausen, rarity and originality are king of the value drivers. The fact that this 968 Turbo RS, which has just emerged for sale in the Classic Driver Market with Messina Classics in Germany, is one of just four produced and the sole road-registered example will no doubt be music to collectors’ ears.
