Note on the use of winter tyres
Summer t yres provide optimum perfor -

distances are increased. We therefore
recommend that you fit winter t yres during
the colder months of the year so that you

Did you expect our transport and
car-care accessories to offer anything
less than supreme performance?
The 911 and roof at tachments? That may
sound like a contradiction, but it isn't.
Not when our favourite pastime is recon -
ciling seemingly contradictory notions.
You can drive your Porsche and bring
your second favourite mode of transport
along for the ride. Bicycles, skis and
snowboards, for example, are easily
accommodated.
After some heav y lifting, your Porsche
deserves a rest and some care and
at tention. The following pages will show
you every thing we have to offer, from
car covers to microfibre cleaning cloths.
