Scotland North

The Scotland North Region (R2) is the Club’s largest in area, spanning from Perth to the Shetlands, and Aberdeen to the Outer Hebrides. The Region has large clusters of members in Tayside, Aberdeenshire, and Inverness, but has members across the whole of the North of Scotland including the islands.
 
Region 2 is home to perhaps the most spectacular scenery and driving roads in the UK, including the Snow Roads route through the Cairngorms and the now legendary North Coast 500. The Region makes good use of all the fantastic country available to us and puts on many events throughout the year.
 
As part of the regular monthly calendar, we host both a Breakfast Meeting and day runs out to interesting locations. Additionally, we host two social evenings each month – the first in the Aberdeenshire area and the second in Tayside.
 
We also host several special events throughout the year, including attending a selection of the best car shows across Scotland. These special events include a Summer Solstice late night run on the longest Saturday of the year, and overnight adventures to places like Assynt, Cape Wrath and the Isles.
 
The highlight of the R2 calendar is our annual Weekend-of-the-Year, held each year in October on the weekend the clocks go back. Known as the ‘Gain-an-Hour Weekend’ this four-day event is the best adventure for fans of Porsche. Typically, we take over sole occupancy of a hotel in a spectacular area, with members doing drives in groups or solo. You meet Porsches out on the road everywhere you stop! On the last night we gather for a climactic party that lasts into the wee hours – that’s where the gained hour comes in handy!
 
Region 2 is very diverse with members of all ages, ethnicities and backgrounds. The organisers, Caitlin and George, are the youngest in the club at 25 and 26 years old respectively, enjoying Porsches alongside active members who are 80+. The Region is also home to all manner of Porsches, from classics like air-cooled 911’s and 986 Boxsters, modern cars like Cayennes and Panameras, and including several unusual models such as Porsche Tractors and 918 Spyders. All members will be made very welcome regardless of who they are or which car they drive.
