The Cayenne Hybrid ……an all weather Porsche. The Hybrid Cayenne was something new to us and initially we were not sure where it sat with regard to the more conventional models. The opportunity to properly try one for ourselves rather than [...]
I tell customers all sorts of things….and mostly I believe them myself. One customer who must have believed enough of what I tell him about Porsche, enough that he has bought a few, asked if we could arrange a little [...]
For Enthusiasts, by Enthusiasts. Occasionally we come across something that is so good that we should let you know. One such Company offer the most wonderful driving holidays in our favourite car, when the owner of the business contacted me, [...]
I have enthused about Porsche ever since my first drive. Not a big drive, just a few meters across the forecourt but even then , over 30 years ago, I knew it was special. I wasn’t the only one. Since [...]
The tale of two Porsche 911 SC. If this seems like a rant then maybe it is and I apologise! The 911 SC was the car that I started my Porsche business, ‘way back when’ it was the 911 I [...]
Whilst at the beautiful Bruno race track int he Chezk republic last year (see previous post) I captured some great images which I almost forgot to post and thought you might enjoy. Porsche happened to be unloading about 40 cars [...]
I was discussing this with a customer , he had come in to buy a Porsche with no clear idea of what he wanted other than he wanted something to keep and pass on to his children. I was wondering [...]
For those of you of a certain age you must remember Anneka Rice and ‘Challenge Anneka’. From what I recall she zoomed around in her beach buggy and every week she and her team were given some sort of challenge [...]
New beginnings. You may have noticed the name change on our site from Adrian Crawford to Williams Crawford, this is our big news for the year! We guarantee that the service will change in only one way, it will be [...]
Found…..a NEW / OLD Porsche. This 968 Cabriolet is a rare car in its own right, not so many were built and in the period, 92-94 Porsche were struggling with sales, both in Europe and here in the UK although some markets [...]
I always get a thrill to see a Porsche as close to the way it rolled of the production line and love the thought of experiencing a Porsche exactly as the way it was intended to be when it was new. Clearly this [...]
Porsche Museum II. Following from my previous Porsche Museum post, I thought I ought to share some more pictures. This time of Porsche road cars. The trip to the Museum was so good. I could spend days in there so if [...]
Midsummer Porsche Review 2012. Far from doom and gloom, my customers are generally an optimistic bunch who are still making ends meet and having enough overlap with those ends to support buying a Porsche of some sort. One thing good [...]
John O Groats to Lands End. On a bicycle. Even though I only went to the local comprehensive I knew it was a bad idea. My wife has completed the 900 mile journey taking nine days. With my basic maths I [...]
John O Groats to Lands end Charity Cycle ride? How hard can that be? My wife Lisa is cycling the 900 miles from JOG to LE in 9 days, that’s approximately 100 miles a day assuming no ‘breakdowns’ [...]
Prior to sale I always like to actually drive every Porsche that passes through my hands, ‘I bet you do’ is the usual reply, but honestly it can be quite difficult to find the time and occasion to use them. [...]
In a previous blog I mentioned that we had been asked to renovate a 1979 Porsche 911 3.0Sc for a client in Ireland. I thought you might like to see the end result, here she is. It takes such a time [...]
Porsche 911 seem to invoke strong opinions wherever you are. None more so that asking your mates in the pub. Everyone knows ‘they go through hedges backwards’, ‘ a 911 must be red’, ’it’s got to be manual’, ‘they must be coupe’. [...]
Its unbelievable. It fell into my lap. A new 993 Carrera 4S . Although my typing isnt the best this is no mistake, it had been used for only 5900 mile. I have done more in a whole month than this Porsche had [...]
Brief Details of the very latest Interesting Porsche that may be (or are) coming my way. Should you have an interest in any of these please get in touch. Sorry for the scant detail . 991. New Cars available. 997. [...]
You get a lot of it…Passion for Porsche that is and this superb 993 Turbo told a superb story. There is no doubt that you must have the bug pretty bad to be buying a turbo 911. When new these hand built [...]
I get lots of different requests from all over the World asking me to find a specific Porsche, their ‘dream’ Porsche and let me tell you that can range from a 924 through to a Carrera GT. So when I [...]
The Porsche Museum has so many jems. I couldnt pick my favourite. However this Polizei porsche 993 sparked a memory way back when I must have been barely into double digits. I had a white and green Polizei Beetle from [...]
This is where I post the latest classic or collectable Porsche that may be available. They are not generally in my stock but may become so if I have an interested client so please call for further detail. 930 Turbo [...]
In the beginning it was a 911 no one would want. The chap that brought it to me had promised a lovely clean and original 911, just the sort of thing I like. When it rolled up the reality [...]
Even for a hardened car dealer selling this 911 almost brought a tear to my eye. It was one I should have kept and of the 100′s of superb Porsche I have had, this would be the one that I [...]
Adrian tells of his visit to the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart last month.
I had the unusual opportunity to compare the original Boxster to the modern 987 back to back. It was a rush job….travelling from the UK 1200km to Stuttgart, leaving on the Plymouth to Roscoff ferry, then travelling through France, via [...]
It is one of the pleasures of this business to be able to sample special Porsche like this. With only 13000 miles from new, I imagine the experience is much the same as it would have been leaving Stuttgart in 1993. Before you get [...]
One of the characteristics of a Porsche that I like most is the ability to use them for, (within reason), any purpose at all.
