Porsche 911S/912E pre-production test vehicle
Ladies and Gentlemen
At this point we are proud to show you the only existing pre-series test vehicle from the Porsche testing department in Weissach, which was delivered to Weissach as the 911 S directly on the Zuffenhausen assembly line to be equipped with the 912 E 4-cylinder boxer engine developed for the American market to be equipped with the specially designed 5-speed gearbox. A strong year and almost 90,000 km later, which were mainly covered on the factory test bench, the vehicle came into factory sales and was made private by Mr. Hellmuth Bott (then head of development at Porsche and the main person responsible for the later 959 super sports car). According to the original vehicle registration document, the only one! Halters since 1976!

The son of the original owner, who has probably now died, gave the vehicle to the Hamburg Automobile Museum “Prototyp” for exhibition for several years, where the vehicle remained until a few years ago.
Please enjoy reading the complete history of the test vehicle in the photos provided. We have also made photos of the official statement from Porsche AG, the birth certificate back to the original purchase agreement between PAG and the buyer at the time.
One of the “highlights” of our bulging folder is the letter of thanks from Mr. Hellmuth Bott, in which he wrote to thank him for the bouquet of flowers that the buyer gave him as a small gift for arranging the sale between PAG and him.
It is this incredibly complete history that has such a lasting impact on us, also because it leaves not the slightest doubt that this special Porsche is absolutely unique.
We will add more information to this description shortly. Please give us some time because this vehicle deserves our full attention.
If you have any questions about the “Zwölfer”, we will be happy to help you with anything. All documents and the vehicle itself can be viewed by appointment.
We are looking forward to your visit
