Porsche 911 R at Silverstone: Time for Coffee?

Worried all the 911 Rs were in air-conditioned collections? This PHer proves otherwise!



Is the Porsche 911 R the most discussed and debated car of 2016? Perhaps. But in the furore around availability and dodgy deals, it's largely been forgotten that it's rather good as 911s go...

So look away now if you don't like rear-engined Porsches, and the R in particular. But if you do like them and you want to see one being driven well by an enthusiast, see below. PHer 'footsoldier' got his R on track as soon as possible, enjoying his car on a great circuit as well like to do with a new performance car. The noise is sublime even through a GoPro, it looks really fast and props to this PHer for doing his own heel and toe as well.

With so many apparently being bought as investments, to see a 911 R being thrashed around a circuit is really heartening. That's what they were made for after all! Thanks footsoldier for sending it over, hopefully there's plenty more to come.

Watch the video here.

Good to see one being used.
