HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 28th April 1990 by Official Porsche Centre, Heddell & Deeks in Dorset, this vehicle has a fully traceable ownership record. Detailed notes on each owner make interesting reading with the first, Mr Duncan, buying the car for his wife who only covered 650 miles in two years due to a skiing accident and preferring her automatic Mercedes. Long-term and penultimate sixth owner of 15 years, Mr Robert Gall, bought the car in 1999 from Porsche Dealers, Paragon. The vehicle invoice reveals a purchase price of £32,995 when the car had covered 44,013 miles. Used regularly by him with 11 service entries documented until 2003 and 53,755 when business commitments put the car into careful storage. In 2014 Mr Gall entrusted Porsche Specialists, AMB of Nottingham, to completely go through the car with the intention of putting it back into recreational weekend use. The bill for this work amounts to £6,158.83 replacing all fluids, brakes, belts, tyres and service items broken down on an itemised bill. With only 54,962 miles now covered rather than extended storage and minimal use the decision was made to sell the car.

All handbooks, spare keys, remotes, invoices and MOT certificates along with hand written ownership details are included.

A Porsche 550 Spyder Martin & Walker replica professionally built

HISTORY
The limited number Porsche 550 Spyder was introduced at the 1953 Paris Auto Show and was quickly recognised wherever it appeared due to outstanding race success.  It dominated the US and European championship circuit even against more powerful cars not even in its class and was the race choice of privateers earning a reputation as the Giant Killer.  The beauty of the 550 was that it could be driven to the track, raced and then driven home, which showed the flexibility of being both a road and track car.  Perhaps the most famous Porsche 550 built was James Dean’s “Little Bastard” which Dean fatally crashed into Donald Turnupseed’s 1950 Ford Custom on the 30th September 1955.  Original examples rarely appear on the market and always make headline prices when they do.

EQUIPMENT
GRP bodyshell, tubular steel chassis with steel rear bulkhead, De Dion axle located with four trailing arms and a Panhard rod, adjustable coilspring damper units, aluminium fuel tank, aluminium floor, perspex wind deflector, headrest fairing, Spyder and Porsche emblems, bonnet catches, wing mirror, wooden Nardi steering wheel, Willans seatbelts, passenger grab handle, passenger foot brace, push button start, rev counter and combined fuel/temperature gauge, dash mounted rear view mirror, kill switch, moulded door pockets, horn, tonneau cover.

EXTERIOR
Finished in vibrant period Porsche Blue there is absolutely no hiding in this incredible machine.  The sleek low slung appearance is gorgeous at any angle drawing much admiration from onlookers who marvel over the flowing yet purposeful lines.  The light weight bodyshell is free from stress fractures and has a deep gloss coat.  The gumballs positioned front and rear and on the doors just like the originals are blank.  The gold Porsche and Spyder lettering reveals the heritage and the stainless rear grilles and headrest faring leave no doubt of the fun lying ahead.  A must.

INTERIOR
Once in situ the Speedster style seats trimmed in black vinyl offer amazing support and looking over the wooden Nardi steering to the replica instrument set will start the pulse racing.  Securely fastened by the Willans racing seatbelts the driving position is near perfect and lack of creature comforts is soon forgotten once the starter button is pressed!

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Rear mounted and running a VW Type 4 engine displacing 2 litres built by Microgiant this power plant had been on the rolling road at BD Engineering and produces 110bhp and 122lbft of torque.  Sucking fuel through twin 40 Delorto carbs and barking through a custom stainless steel exhaust built by Aldens the sound is like no other!  A 4-speed rebuilt gearbox is controlled by an expensive American Janmar Shifter kit to utilise the power.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Authentic Porsche 550 reproduction steel wheels are shod in quality Yokohama A539 195/65 R15 tyres. Front discs and rear drums on a dual circuit with a master cylinder provide ample stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
Martin and Walker offer a Spyder Replica both as kit for self-assembly or as turnkey vehicle individually built to customer’s specifications. The Technic 550 Spyder as witnessed here is a true mid-engine replica of the original car and has been produced by M&W since 1987.  This example is number six of a run of 11 built by highly respected Paul Foreman in Kent.  Correctly registered as an historic vehicle on the registration document it passed to its current owner, John Litherland from Paul in 2007.  Known as Sacrebleu and even supplied with matching clothing this example has been enjoyed for local rallies and European trips to Le Mans and to Spa in Belgium.  Sacrebleu is reluctantly offered for sale due the owner’s arthritis.  A collection of invoices and old MOT certificates breaks down the 3,544 miles since being built.  A real motoring icon guaranteed to excite the fun loving petrol head or the 1950’s appreciating classic sports car fan.

A beautiful and extremely rare UK Porsche 911 M491 Supersport Coupe.

MODEL HISTORY
Offered by Porsche in 1984 as a factory option, the Supersport Edition option code M491, essentially provided the showcase looks of a 930 Turbo, but natural aspiration and more palatable running costs were attractive to some, along with the added rarity.  Whilst sharing most features with the turbo, including the wide body, rear aerodynamic ‘tea tray’ spoiler and Turbo brakes, some features of the Supersport including the G50 5-speed gearbox and stiffer suspension were deemed more desirable.  The M491 option was particularly popular in the US within the first two years of launch as the 930 Turbo was not available.  Just 75 cars were produced for the UK market, 35 of which were coupe bodied.

EQUIPMENT
Supersport equipment, front and rear aero-dynamic spoilers, flared wheel arches, halogen headlamps, headlamp washers, heavy duty windscreen cleaning system, recoil bumpers, integrated fog lamps, power locks, electric window lifters, power sunroof, oil level gauge, oil temperature, oil pressure, electrically adjustable sports seats, seat heaters, leather trimmed steering wheel, 3 point rear seat belts, cassette holder, velour carpet in luggage compartment.  Dealer accessories; Porsche dealer fitted Anti-Theft System.

EXTERIOR
This beautiful genuine Supersport edition is finished in stunning Porsche Nougat Brown Metallic (code F4FA).  The paintwork boasts a lustrous shine being nothing short of breath taking and encapsulates the true magic of the 911 perfectly.  All panels are straight and free from damage with only the tiniest of imperfections commensurate with a used but cherished example.  All trim sections including the trademark rear wing and aerodynamic front bumper are spotless.  The ultimate 1980’s object of desire.

INTERIOR
The splendid interior of this 911 Supersport is a delightful throwback to 1980’s supercar glamour.  The seats are finished in beautifully clean Linen and Mahogany Leatherette with Linen interior inlays.  Matching door cards and tailor-made carpet mats complete the look and the colour scheme dashboard and matching steering wheel resonate with 1980’s exuberance!  Only tiny age related veins to the seat leather is visible upon very close inspection.  The dashboard and associated switchgear is perfect with all functions and controls operating exactly as Porsche intended.  The front luggage compartment still displays the important original factory build sticker under the bonnet which matches that inside the service booklet, and the Porsche ground sheet remains unused along with all other tools.  The cockpit of a ground breaking automotive hero.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
This air cooled rear mounted engine is the 3,164cc 154KW variant or technically known as the M930/20 Type.  Naturally aspirated, a top speed of 152mph and 0-62 time of 6.1 seconds is only marginally slower than the 3.3 930 Turbo.  The engine bay is beautifully clean, unmolested and displays factory stickers and markings clearly.  More desirable than the unit fitted to the Turbo, the Supersport has the Getrag (model G50) five speed gearbox which is light and direct.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Ultimate forged alloy 16inch Fuchs wheels with unique colour coded Nougat Brown centres  correct for the Supersport are taken from the 930 Turbo.  The wheels are in outstanding condition with only miniscule surface markings visible upon close scrutiny.   Quality matching Continental ContiSport Contact tyres 205/55 ZR16 front and 245/45 ZR16 rear have masses of tread remaining and were fitted new in 2015.  Powerful ventilated and perforated discs all round with four piston callipers are standard and taken from the 930 Turbo.

HISTORY FILE
Supplied originally by Parker & Parker Ltd, Official Porsche Centre in Cumbria, this genuine UK M491 Supersport was registered new on 17th February 1987.  A Certificate of Authenticity issued by Porsche Cars Great Britain Limited confirms the correct model, colour and specification, including the all-important Supersport Equipment package.  The original Porsche leatherette wallet contains all handbooks and guides as well as the service record displaying 21 entries, the first 14 stamps being the supplying dealer Parker & Parker.  Thereafter the entries are Porsche specialists with the most recent being 2015 at TWG Sport of Peterborough with less than 2,000 miles covered since.  An invoice dated August 2015 for £1,744.98 from The Porsche Centre Cambridge details maintenance work undertaken.

Completing the fantastic history record is a large file of MOT certificates and invoices as well as three sets of keys including the original master.  Altogether a beautifully presented, very special and exclusive model of this iconic motoring legend.
