Mark Harrison, co-founder of ‘**Total Headturners’, **shared with Robb Report that the idea of a Retro-modern 356 Speedster replica came from clients who had bought 356 Replicas, but didn’t mind the idea of modern amenities. This Iconic Autobody (387) is the perfect blend of ‘classic looks with usability’ that comes with a more modern drivetrain. Just remind yourself that an original 356 Speedster is slower, doesn’t drive as well, is less usable and can cost close to $1.0 million?

R13 CSM is a truly, one off, show-winning, Porsche Speedster/Spyder that, literally, ‘drops Jaws’ wherever it appears and regularly upsets many a modern ‘*Supercar’ *at traffic lights!

R13 CSM - Genuine Reason for Sale

Once I discovered* ‘Iconic Autobody Porsche’* I was looking to buy ever since. £100K New? However, was out of my reach. Only a handful of pre-owned Autobody Porsche have been sold these past 3/5 years. All were low(er) specification: 2.5 & 2.7, Automatics, 386 models.

It was the later Autobody 387 Spyder Spyder Turrets that clinched the deal for me! My heart was set on a 387 Speedster/Spyder, manual transmission. The car I would be replacing, was a 911 996 turbo, my Spyder had to have a 3.2s Power Unit with manual transmission!

Unfortunately, fully Loaded (3.2 Manual). pre-owned, 387 Porsche Iconic Autobody are like hens teeth! If they pop up, they, quickly, disappear. This is a rare car that I am reluctantly selling due to worsening, incurable, health conditions. Quite simply, I do not want to leave the responsibility of selling my beautiful Green Jeanie with my wife.

Investment

*Rare, unusual *cars tend to increase in value? Pre-used, Autobody Porsche, represent excellent value for money, a, £ for £, future proof investment? When compared with, Singer Porsche or Starke Speedster? Autobody Porsche are incredible value for an, affordable, investment?

Driving a performance Spyder is pure joy! Roof down driving is spectacular, an incredible engine/exhaust note under load and with a fully electric roof, no need to worry about unpredictable, British weather. Spectacularly presented, inside and out a, true, *‘drivers’ *Porsche. Light-weight, balanced & Agile. Bullet proof, six speed, manual transmission, significantly weight reduced, that squeezes the very best out of the Porsche 3.2s six cylinder bullet proof power unit.

R13 CSM is definitely not a museum piece. Regularly driven & enjoyed, there are, consummate with age and use, minor chips & blemishes. Every effort has been made to keep maintenance at the very top of the tree - *June 24 Major Service, Maintenance & Performance Enhancements by Porsche Autohaus UK *that included; IMS, Main Rear Oil Seal Replaced, New, Custom, Performance Manifolds fitted.
