Are there any free Porsche owners clubs?

I tried to signup for Purely Porsche Club but it seems to be broken and an email to the admin bounced so not sure if it is still functioning.

The only reason I ask is because as part of my insurance it stipulates that I need to be a member of an owners club but I'm not too keen to pay £70 to be a member of what seems to be the main one when I don't think i'll use any of the benefits of being a member.

I found them also, think that was £45 for a years membership.

PCGB is well worth the fee £70 (reducing to £50 in subsequent years) as it has a decent monthly magazine, gets you 10% discount on parts at all OPC`s, discount on your car insurance, access to the national/regional club events, track days and more...

TIPEC is similar and also has a large membership...

TIPEC members get a £60 + VAT per hour labour rate at Bristol OPC. The saving on one hour's labour would cover two years of TIPEC membership!
