A little background information for our International members on Carlos Fandango

Ah but don't forget the bespoke valve tuning and who can fail to be swooned by circles and triangles

I always thought it would be a great name for a race team. Carlos Fandango Racing.The picture you have is a local farmer from Cardigan collecting his eggs quite common down these parts. through gateway hanbrake 90 left checkpoint pickup the eggs back for breakfast. The french have a boring 2cv we have an anglebox with a 1500gt motor with the standard carlos fandago wheels...... Em

I find it amazing that folk are still taken in by whole 'limited edition' thing.
Hopefully the 15 lucky guinea pigs have infinite amounts of patience to go with their sizeable bank balance.

I'd forgotten about the Carlos Fandango wheels, brilliant....!

"Capsule"

A limited edition of one is rarer than fifteen.

Calling it a Club Sport and not fitting it with a roll bar, whilst referencing the "sporting personality" seems incongruous to me.

Furthermore, the following just seems to be marketing speak for 'we are trying to justify what makes this a limited edition and the associated price uplift.'

"The 115 Clubsport mark’s use of circles and triangles in its design references a strength in engineering and motorsport.
The Clubsport word mark is one of the first official uses of the new Morgan font, named ‘H.F.S’, designed in-house at Morgan to
reflect the letter forms used in the Morgan Wings brand mark.
‘115’ not only restates that this is our 115th year of manufacture, but also represents 1 of 15 cars to be produced within this capsule."

I remember a beautifully executed Club Sport - the Pork 968CS.

£8000 cheaper despite upgrades to wheels, tyres, brakes, shockers and a set of wonderful Recaro one piece seats.

All the changes made it a way better drivers experience for less money.

Loved that car.

I don't think the Plus Four Club Sport will be cheaper... Mazda are great at bringing out limited edition MX5s and adding a few thousand quid on the price. It remains to be seen is the addition of a roll bar and different shocks justifies then increased price.

If I am not mistaken, the 968CS was the last lightened/track focused Porsche that cost less than the standard model on which it was based.
