PORSCHE CLASSIC COAST TOUR
Three of our regular hardcore crews made the short hop to the Belgian seaside resort of De Haan for the Porsche Classic Coast Tour in mid-August, organised by the Belgian Porsche Club. Steve Winter, John Liles and David and Jenny Lever were amongst 40 356s that enjoyed the weekend event.

The feedback reported a great couple of days with a competitive roadbook tackled by a friendly crowd. We can see this becoming a regular jaunt for the Brit crews, particularly when the International Meeting is more ‘local’, as in 2026.

GOODWOOD REVIVAL
Next up is the Goodwood Revival, where the 356 posse will likely meet informally at 11am on both days. The usual gathering at the Champagne tent will move to Steve Harker’s memorial bench which was installed at the circuit in early August. Thank you very much to everyone who donated - in addition to a lovely teak bench, your donations raised over £1,400 for MacMillan Cancer Research.
ARDENNEN RENNEN
Promptly following the Revival there are at least three cars tackling the Ardennen Rennen, again in Belgium. Marcus Carlton, Phil Parry and Graham Kerr are all booked on at the time of writing.
