About 2911
The Traditional Values of the Porsche Brand
Delivered with expertise, integrity, and genuine human care.
Why This Business Exists
The PLC model that dominates modern automotive retail has abandoned the values that made the Porsche brand extraordinary in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. 2911 exists to restore those values: patience, honesty, expertise, and the belief that buying a Porsche should be as memorable as driving one.
"Nobody needs a Porsche. People buy them because they want them. It's a lifelong passion obsession. They've saved up. The buying experience should be as lovely as the car itself."

By Choice.
This is not a business trying to become the biggest. It is a business committed to being the best: the most knowledgeable, the most attentive, and the most trusted in the Porsche sphere.
"I want to be the leading specialist in the UK - but I do not want to be the biggest. I'm very proud of that."
The Five Pillars
What We Actually Stand For
02
Radical Transparency
Every service book is scanned. Every MOT record is shared. Every known issue is disclosed. We prep every car to Porsche's own 111-point standard.
"Some dealerships don't like to show you what they've spent or what's happened in the background. We do."
03
Experience as Product
The buying journey is treated as part of the product. Personalised video walkthroughs. Lunch at handover. Direct, personal access.
"On the handover day, I want to take that person to lunch - because it makes a nice, memorable moment of the day they collected their Porsche."
04
Community & Belonging
The founder is embedded in the Porsche community at every level - clubs, publications, consultancy, dealer networks. Buying through 2911 means joining that world, not completing a transaction.
05
The Anti-PLC Stance
Traditional values, in an industry that forgot them.
"The PLC model has forgotten the core values of what buying a Porsche was in the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. I want to restore the approach my brand took then - customer experience first, integrity, honesty."
The Showroom
A Space Built Around the Cars, Not the Sales Board
Every car sits here while it is prepared, inspected, and filed. It is not a forecourt. It is a quiet space where the work happens before the handover - and where you can see exactly what we are about before any conversation starts.
Capacity
2-10 cars per month

Preparation & handover
The Process
What Actually Happens
Before a Car Reaches You
Not "we prepare every car to the highest standard". Here's what that phrase actually means at 2911.
- 01
Curation
We take a call on a car before it becomes stock. Provenance, ownership pattern, service record, story. If any of it feels wrong, we don't buy it. That's most of the work.
- 02
111-Point Inspection
The same standard Porsche themselves use - mechanical, electrical, cosmetic, structural. Documented finding by finding, not summarised.
- 03
Preparation
Whatever the inspection finds gets fixed with genuine or specification-matched parts. Where we choose not to fix something - a fair-wear item, a disclosed history mark - we say so, in writing.
- 04
The File
Every service book scanned. Every MOT. Every receipt we can find, from every previous owner. Assembled before the car is listed, not on request.
- 05
Personal Walkthrough & Warranty
A personal video walkthrough of the file and the car, recorded before you commit. 3-month statutory warranty as standard. Handover in person, whenever you'd like.
