The ultimate Porsche Christmas party

We would like to say a huge thank you to our Club members and Porsche enthusiasts who braved the extreme cold yesterday to join us for our biggest ever Porsche Christmas at Bicester! It was great to be back at the classic car hub for the first time since 2019 and get into the festive spirit while also admiring so many fantastic Porsches on display.
 
The large hangar was the focal point for the event with visitors greeted by the smell of freshly roasted chestnuts and the view of a gift wrapped 992 Cabriolet GTS filled with presents and surrounded by brightly lit Christmas trees. Thanks to volunteers from Region 31, themed displays of turbos, targas and RS models filled the centre of the hangar with some incredible examples of Porsches through the years.
 
For anyone needing to make a dent in their Christmas shopping or looking to treat themselves, the outer edges were lined with independent traders selling everything from automotive art, artisanal spirits, Christmas decorations and all kinds of delicious delicacies. Performances from the Bicester Military Wives Choir and the Hotsie Totsies filled the air while the world’s tallest grinch patrolled the floor and kept everyone in line.
 
Back outside, as the Porsches kept rolling in throughout the day, we were even treated to a flurry of snow for that authentic festive feeling! Hidden away under hats, scarves and hoods, friendly and familiar faces emerged as people slowly recognised one another for one last catch-up at our end of season finale.
 
As with previous years, visitors were invited to bring donations for The Trussell Trust food bank and we were absolutely overwhelmed with the incredible response this year. The flatbed of the Porsche Classic VW “Doka” was used as the donation point, but became so full that throughout the day, bags and boxes of donations had to be carried across to our own work van, until that too was full.
 
A big thank you must go to the small team of volunteers not only for staying out in the cold and getting everyone parked up in the appropriate areas so smoothly, but for helping out across the event to make it such a success.
 
Keep your eye peeled for a video recap later this week, but until then, enjoy a gallery of photos from the link below.
