porsche clubs

[Roadrunner]

Is it worth joining any of the porsche clubs, like the main gb one? I might join if the mag was good quality and you save money on stuff, but not otherwise.

R/R,
Yeah, I think its worth joining Porsche Club G.B.The Magazine is very good,and the people in my local group very friendly(Surrey).There are various discounts available ie tyres,insurance.

Great adverts in the mag too - just about anything and everything you could possibly want. The club has a forum up and running now.

I joined up when I got the car. As McNab said: the ads in the mag are handy. Its also a good source of information about almost everything Porsche related in the UK.

The club does lots of national events (I haven't been a meeting-goer although they do monthly meets) which have been fun. They also have at least a couple of touring hols/short breaks a year featuring closed-road runs, dinners etc if you're into that sort of thing.

Its a bit pricey at £60 for the wife and I but I reckon its worth it.

Why does your wife need to be a member too?

Oops. I meant for the wife and I. "Family" membership. Means she can participate in any events as she is covered by the club insurance as well. etc

I think it pretty good value, as everyone is saying the magazine alone makes it worth the money.(The June issue has 125 pages)

You also get a good discount on the Club's Trackdays and on Michelin Sport Cup tyres (the improved successor to the PzeroC)
