Porsche’s Winter Options

Put the Porsche to bed and get on the sled


Porsche Kinderbob

As temperatures drop around the country the chance of snow seems ever more likely, and when there is snow, there is sledging.

So if your kid’s first words were Porsche instead of Mummy or Daddy then this may be the ideal present, the Porsche Kinderbob.

The gravity propelled Porsche is fitted with metal runners to gain that extra speed and a working horn to shift the slower old school wooden sleds out of the way.

Porsche Aluminiumschlitten

Porsche haven’t left out the big kids either, with the Porsche Aluminiumschlitten. This sled’s frame is made completely of aluminium, with high grade steel skids. It also folds up into its own carrying bag so you can easily carry it to your local “Cresta Run”.

If you head to the German version of the Porsche website you can pick the Kinderbob up for €65 (around £47), and the Aluminiumthingy for a cool €250 (£180).

Though there is no news on the options list.

Hmmm...

Can't help but notice that the Kinderbob looks familiar.

Do they work in drizzle? - like the Kinderbob but I prefer power sliding my 190e 16v round a supermarket car park in the snow more

I dunno, as Nissan seem to throw every conceivable gismo in their products, it could include a compact snow making device?

Or a 4-ski version, the Kinderbob Carrera 4.

Or one with a big hairdryer on the back - the Kinderbob Turbo

Or one with loads of extra overpriced Christmas tinsel stuck to it - the Kinderbob 4S Tiptronic Cabriolet biggrin

No wonder all Porsche's cars all look the same. Their designers are too busy knocking this stuff out......

Can imagine it lined up alongside a load of 911s and Caymans, 'here's your vehicle sir', then trying to push it along with your feet out of the doors, down the road, onto the autobahn...
