The Wheel Deal

Fixing you up with life in the fast lane.
Posted: August 3rd, 2012 | By Thomas Falkiner


Driving trials of the Porsche 918 Spyder are stepping up to the next level. This means that one of the prototypes can now be found blitzing around the challenging 20.8-kilometer Nürburgring-Nordschleife race circuit. And if you’re lucky enough to spot the 770hp supercar in question, you’ll notice that Porsche have treated it to the legendary Martini Racing colour scheme from the 1970s.

Perhaps one of the most iconic racing liveries of all time, Porsches licked with the famous blue and white stripes racked up victories at the 1973 Targa-Florio, the Sports Car World Championship in 1976 and overall victories at the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1976 and 1977. Now making a comeback, I think you’ll agree that the retro-penned 918 wears them rather well.
