PORSCHE 356 B/C CARRERA 2

Coupè.

Bigger fuel tank than standard models and the four-cam engine and dry-sump lubrication again. Early 1600s, however, have drum brakes, so watch it. All-disc brakes and C specification from 1963; 2-litre engine available from 1961. These quoted to do 125mph, 0-60mph in 9 secs, and 21 mpg as against 30/35 mpg for a good pushrod specimen. The ultimate in old-school Porsches.
