PorscheMeirion starts our events season in style

Our first anniversary event of the year was held in the picturesque village of Portmeirion  

Thank you to everyone who attend our first national event of the year and joined us for an unforgettable day at the stunning picturesque village of Portmeirion. Hundreds of Club members were welcomed to the grade II-listed fantasy village, surrounded by mountains, woodlands and spectacular views.
 
The village was overtaken with a selection of truly magnificent Porsches that were displayed throughout the village for everyone to enjoy. Despite a few very dark clouds in the sky, the threat of rain held off and we even got to see glimpses of sunshine creating perfect photo opportunities.
 
With Club members travelling from across the UK, Hercules Hall provided a “pit stop” to take a well earned comfort break as well as catching a Q&A session with esteemed British Motor Racing driver and Le Mans winner Richard Attwood. Outside of the main hall there were plenty of roaming entertainment for everyone to enjoy, including a walking history tour of the village, Penkhull Brass Band performed on the Piazza and “Lightdraw” hosted a number of photo workshops. Also in attendance were Porsche Centre Chester, while Club partners Pirelli attracted visitors with plenty of competitions throughout the day in their F1 simulator.
 
As the day drew to a close, the village was treated to an unforgettable experience as the narrow streets were filled with Porsches of all ages for the “Farewell Grand Parade”, led by Gerard Collins, who won the ‘Car of the Day’ award for his 1958 356A.


 
Thank you again to everyone who came along and we very much look forward to seeing you again at a Club event in the near future. “Wings and Wheels” in Scotland is now less than four weeks away, so if you haven’t already done so, now is the perfect time to book your ticket!
