42 incredible Porsches will head to auction at the Porsche Sale 2018 in association with Porsche Club GB, taking place for the first time ever at Dallas Burston Polo Club this coming Friday, 28th September.

Now in its fourth year, Silverstone Auctions’ annual Porsche Sale offers a wide and inclusive range of models from early 356s to the latest 911 GT3. Headlining the marque specific sale is a 1963 Porsche 356 C Carrera 2 2000 GS, one of only six right-hand drive coupes of its type, finished in the special order colour Bali Blue with a black leather interior and sunroof. First owned by successful 1960's Ferrari privateer racing driver Chris Kerrison, it will be offered at the auction estimated at £550,000 to £650,000.

Extremely rare 911s also feature, including a 1998 Porsche 911 (993) Turbo S finished in Pastel Yellow with a black leather interior, one of only 26 UK-supplied cars, guided at £165,000 to £185,000. A limited edition 1989 Porsche 911 (930) Turbo LE, one of only 53 UK right-hand drive examples made estimated at £130,000 to £150,000 and reading just over 30,000 miles, is also expected to draw collectors to the sale.

Two RUF examples will also be at the auction, with a one of five, UK right-hand drive 1998 RUF BTR2 993 Turbo coming from single ownership and estimated at £150,000 to £200,000, and the 2002 RUF RTurbo featured in the famous Nurburgring press video, guided at £180,000 to £220,000.

A 2018 Porsche 911(991.2) GT3 Touring 6-speed manual reading less than 1,000 miles is the youngest car in the sale, offering Porsche fans the chance to jump the waiting list, guided at £150,000 to £175,000.

Joe Watts, classic car specialist at Silverstone Auctions, comments; “This year we’ve moved this sale to a new venue, the stunning and award winning Dallas Burston Polo Club, and we’re extremely excited. Not only do we have a terrific selection of collectible and desirable cars for sale, but we’ll also have polo displays as well as the presence of Porsche Club GB, which I’m certain will make for a truly memorable experience.”
