In today’s PorscheCooled Podcast Michael presents episode 77 of Owner Stories with Mick from Hampshire in the UK. Mick has fond memories of attending Brands Hatch Circuit in the UK with his dad and brother. One time in the ‘80s, the Porsche 917K lemans cars were brought to the Circuit. This is where Mick fell in love with the Steve McQueen long tail 917K. A memory he will never forget, seeing and hearing the Porsche 917 on track. After getting his license Mick said a lot cars along the way were ‘shit boxes’. Although, there were a couple of memorable cars, these included a MK2 VW Golf – ‘not the best example but a fun car to drive’. Another was the black with gold wheels ‘02 Subaru WRX STI Impreza, a car his dad previously owned. During lockdown in the UK the WRX was sold and couple of electric cars followed. These included a VW ID3 and his current electric the Hyundai Ioniq 5. So, when did Mick buy his first Porsche? Well, that was in 2015, when he purchased a 997.2 Carrera S in manual. Mick was introduced to a car and community that he really enjoyed, he loved his 997 and thought it was a keeper. That was until early 2020 when he found out that Porsche East London had two cancelled GT4 orders, The one Mick was interested in was a very well optioned black GT4 manual with ceramic brakes, buckets, and the very cool Arun gold wheels. Reminiscent of his dads WRX (and a colour combination he loved) the decision was easily made. Mick's 997 is now gone and the GT4 sits in his garage, he couldn’t be happier.
