HONDA car dealer Kevin Adams has saved an immaculate Porsche from being destroyed under the scrappage scheme.

The Brayley Honda sales manager rescued the 70,000-mile coupe from the crusher and has added it to his classic fleet.

It was just in the nick of time too, he explained. It was only by chance that he spotted it on the company stock list – and had to get in quick to strike a deal that benefitted all parties, in order to stop the car being condemned.

‘For such an iconic 80s Porsche to be in this condition with full service history is a rare piece of history and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to save it from being scrapped,’ said Adams.

‘Its former owner is also delighted that it will be looked after instead of meeting a sorry end.’

Mind you, it looks like there could be plenty more to tempt Adams in the coming few months. Brayley Honda has introduced a ‘scrap club’, guaranteeing a minimum £2k part-exchange against any new Honda Civic…

MD Paul Brayley said ‘our new ‘scrap club’ initiative aims to continue the momentum for new car sales this year, which we believe will be equally tough for all car dealers..’

Car Dealer Magazine will keep you posted if Adams succumbs to temptation again.
