70 YEARS OF PORSCHE…

Porsche is one of the most important and iconic automotive manufacturers in history. From its first 356 to today’s technical tour de force, the 918, Porsche has advanced from strength to strength for nearly seven decades.

In Porsche 70 Years: There is No Substitute, author Randy Leffingwell offers a richly illustrated and detailed book that captures the full story of one of the world’s leading automotive companies. Beautiful contemporary photos and rare historical images accompany in-depth analyses of milestone cars and events.

Created with Porsche’s cooperation, the book brings to light the engineering and design stories behind Stuttgart’s most famous cars – such as the 356, 904, 917, 911, 928, 935, 956 and others – as well as its key players.

There’s something for every Porsche enthusiast, whether rear-engine 911 loyalist, race fan, or follower of contemporary vehicles, such as the Cayman and Boxster. Comprising the most comprehensive overview of the company’s entire history, this book truly has no substitute, say the publishers. Price: £45. www.quartoknows.com
