PorscheCooled Owner Stories #70 - Al (Witty924) 996.2 Turbo S X50 and ’84 Porsche 924

In today’s PorscheCooled Podcast Michael presents episode 70 of owner stories with Al (@Witty924) from Hampshire in the UK. Al grew up in the age of the poster with the three iconic cars – Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche. Iconic cars that he and his childhood friends would chat and dream about. Al worked in the motor industry starting with Audi, but Porsches, Audi and the like were out of reach. When Al was growing up in the UK it was more about fast Fords and fast Vauxhalls. These were the cars that were prominent and obtainable. Working in the motor trade allowed Al to experience different cars without the cost. Al quickly became a fan of the German brands and has owned E30 and E36 BMWs. Al’s entry into Porsche happened later in life. In his words when it did happen, he ‘went all in’ and purchased two. The first was a well-documented 1984 Porsche 924 with the 2.0 litre engine, optioned in Copenhagen Blue. Al wanted something that would give him a hands-on experience with Porsche. A Porsche he could learn and work on. Al thought the 924 was the perfect platform for this project and loves the story of the how the 924 came to fruition. Not long after Al bought his first 911, a rare 2003 996 generation 911 turbo S with the X50 package and full carbon pack. Al couldn’t be happier with his 911. The 996 Turbo S gives Al the ‘wow factor’ - just what he wanted.   Welcome back to the PorscheCooled podcast.
