Classic car insurance news: 1963 Porsche up for grabs

Fans of classic Porsche's may be interested to learn that a restored 1963 Porsche 356B Cabriolet will go under the hammer at the COYS True Greats auction.

The motor will comprise part of the line-up at the Royal Horticultural Halls extravaganza in London on December 1st.

In celebration of the 90th anniversary of COYS, about 60 iconic cars will be up for grabs – which could potentially attract investors with cash to splash.

Also, those with a fondness for the late Diana, princess of Wales, might want to make a bid for the D1ANA numberplate – which is expected to fetch approximately £100,000.

What's more, the array of motors on offer will also include a 2004 Ferrari Enzo and a 2005 Koenigsegg CCR.

Recently, Porsche announced details of a competition, where motor enthusiasts can win an Evolution 911 driving experience at Silverstone if they can correctly identify a 911 model on the basis of its engine sound.
