More than 150 passionate enthusiasts descended on the stunning new facilities of Porsche Centre Bournemouth for 9WERKS inaugural cars & coffee on Sunday, 24th October.
Nearly 100 Porsche sports cars, both old and new, filled the two-acre site, as Porsche Bournemouth threw open its doors for the first time and invited 9WERKS Members into its world-class home.
Inside the Centre's main showroom, modern machinery made way for a special 'Classic Legends' display, with an array of cars provided by 9WERKS Members to showcase the evolution of Porsche sports cars. Enthusiasts were given an access-all-areas look around the multi-million-pound new premises situated on England's south coast, which has become only the fifth OPC in the UK to be granted Porsche Classic Partner status. The dealership itself celebrates its 45th birthday next year.

Building on the popular 'Fried Eggs' cars and coffee dedicated to iterations of Porsche 996, 'Fried Eggs & Friends' opened the occasion up to all Porsche models, including air- and water-cooled 911s, Caymans, Boxsters and transaxle cars all commonly found within the enthusiast sphere. Tickets for the event sold out within 24 hours and enthusiasts were commended for their commitment to following additional COVID-19 measures prior to and on the day of the event to ensure the safety of all in attendance.
