THE CLASSIC CAR GURUS: TUTHILLS

摘要

Maybe I'm having my leg pulled, but the Tuthills say their greenhouse is a listed building. It might be that Victorian horticulturists once slaved over hyacinths in the ramshackle building, but today it is crammed full of bits of Porsche. Tuthill Porsche, or Francis Tuthill, or simply Tuthills (I was a customer for several years, but I've never worked out the official company name) is a place of great contrast. Based on a farm, of course, there is the aforementioned ramshackle greenhouse, but there is also an immaculate engine shop and the newest building on the site: the workshop in which Tuthills builds its historic 911 rally cars.
