Our example, delivered new to its first owner in July 1974, is no more and no less than the penultimate car in this very exclusive series of 54 cars; it quickly changed hands in 1975, when it was bought by the German driver Leo Eigner, who had his new acquisition followed by the dealer and tuner Hahn, the same company that looks after the Porsches entered in the highly competitive German ADAC championship
Eigner raced this 3.0 RS until 1977, taking the start of no fewer than 30 races, with 10 wins, nine 2nd places, six 3rd places, and so on. This impressive list of achievements was completed in 1978 by another German driver, Alfred Spaeh, the new owner of #9108, who sold it in 1979 to the Swiss collector Sidney Ho
The car, which had been in storage since 1988, was bought in 2000 by the British Porsche specialist Edmond Harris, who undertook a total restoration of the car, before selling it to a Greek enthusiast, who in turn entrusted it to the unmissable Porsche dealer Le Maxted Page in 2014; it was at this point that the current owner acquired it, driving and maintaining #9108 on a regular basis thereafter, which will be seen in particular at the start of the 2017 Tour Auto, driven by Derek Bell and Carlos Beltran
– This extremely rare 3.0 RS, matching colours (Guards Red) and numbers, perfectly documented (invoice from the 1980s onwards, Porsche archives, Jurgen Barth’s report, etc.) and boasting a solid track record in periods spent on the most legendary German and Dutch circuits (Hockenheim, Avus, Zandvoort, Zolder, etc.), will appeal to all Porsche enthusiasts; with its Historic Technical Passport (HTP valid until 2027), it will also delight those who want to take part in the Le Mans Classic or the Tour Auto with a car that is easy to drive, reliable, high-performance and versatile… Wouldn’t that be the definition of the grail?
