DESCRIPTION
The word 'Tuthill' when combined with a Porsche 911 means a serious rally car prepared to the very highest of standards. A father and son long established and highly respected family business, based near Banbury, that has specialised in building rally specification Porsche 911's to compete and win at both National and International level throughout the world. Over the last 30 years they have now built over 200 winning cars!
This car was re-built by Tuthill in 2012/13 and has been maintained by them since and used in several high profile International rallies, including the 'Midnight Sun Rally' in Sweden, where the car was driven by ex World Rally Champions, Stig Blomqvist, and Bjorn Waldegard, to 3rd and 5th overall.
The re-build included stripping the shell completely, re-painting and the fitting of a new wiring harness and new fuel and brake lines. At the same time the 2.9 litre engine, which is running mechanical injection and low butterfly manifolds, was given a comprehensive top end re-build.
Since then the car has been used as a reserve car at the Tuthill Ice Driving school (see www.belowzeroicedriving.com), with very limited use and is now ready for further competition use.
It can be supplied with FIA or MSA papers subject to further discussion with Tuthills on final chosen spec.
This car has cost a significant six figure sum to build and is thus offered today as serious value for money in this price bracket.
