1 of 918 worldwide, this particular 918 Spyder is very special indeed being a 1 owner UK supplied car which is presented in arguably the most desirable paint Liquid Metal Silver, a nine-layer paint which was a €48,000 option and gives the paint a remarkable 'Liquid Metal' appearance rather than a more traditional metallic or pearlescent finish. As part of an impressive car collection this 918 Spyder has been used and enjoyed by its sole custodian which has now covered just over 9k miles and it boasts both an exemplary service record and a condition that is virtually indistinguishable from new.
Serviced annually rather than the expected bi-annually, each time at Porsche Reading including a recent service in April 2024, this car has been fastidiously maintained with the added benefit that during the larger services whilst a significant proportion of the car is dismantled, the car has been extensively detailed at the request of the owner. There is a library of photos to back this up showing the meticulous care and attention that has gone into ensuring every inch of the car is to an exceptional standard. Furthermore this example includes both the 1 of 918 Limited Edition Porsche Design Timepiece as well as the Full Luggage Set adding to both its provenance and collectability.
We believe this to be one of the very best examples for sale anywhere in the world, which will appeal to those who plan to drive their 918 Spyder without the worry of significantly affecting its value but also those who like to preserve and maintain a car of such importance to the highest standards possible.
As part of the holy trinity the Porsche 918 Spyder alongside the LaFerrari and the McLaren P1 have re-written the hypercar rulebook with each of them becoming true trailblazers in their own right. Utilising hybrid technology these hypercars changed the game and 10 years on from their release it's been remarkable to see them withstand the test of time and actually increase in desirability in recent years. Collectors have realised the importance of having one or even all three in the collection and investors are seeing the potential upside in their long term value and with all three cars being left hand drive they have huge global appeal.
The Porsche 918 Spyder has been widely praised to be the most usable of the holy trinity. Producing a staggering 887bhp and 944 lb ft of torque from its naturally aspirated 4.6 litre V8 engine together with two electric motors. This resulted in the fastest road-going Porsche ever made. The 918 accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 214mph. Furthermore, this astonishing car can lap the famous Nurburgring race track in under 7 minutes. The 918 Spyder is truly a masterpiece of engineering that combines the best of hybrid technology with motorsport heritage creating one of the most important cars of the modern era.

WHAT THE JOURNALISTS SAY

- Beautifully understated and beautifully built. What makes the car special, however, weren't the Top Trumps numbers, but the overall completeness of the package.
- The 918 Spyder seems to be on the rise as of late with examples achieving record-breaking figures at auction, so now could be the perfect time to add Porsche’s hybrid hypercar to your stable.
