Hit or miss: the £1.3m Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer

Ollie Kew: “These creations deserve hypercar theatre”

Pop-up headlights. That’s what it basically comes down to here. All Singers are impossibly exquisite dream cars. And every time you think it has definitely run out of original ways to reimagine the 911, the Singer team comes up with another historically sympathetic variant that’s even more perfectly stanced.

But this one will be remembered for the electronic whack a mole lights. The original 1980s 911 didn’t have them. And there’s no bootspace any more.

But these creations are hypercar money, so they deserve hypercar theatre.

Jack Rix: “My gripe isn’t with the level of want, but the level of spend”

To be honest I may have gone a little bit giddy when I saw one of these in baby blue with a pink corduroy interior at Goodwood, but my gripe isn’t with the level of want. It’s with the level of spend.

I naively thought this was a replacement for the Singer ‘Classic’, a new entry point... but no, it actually sits somewhere between the Turbo and the DLS – with prices starting from around £1.3m, before slathering options on top of that.

I’m stunned, shocked and deeply jealous that I’m £1.29m short.
