A New Home for Classic Porsche Restoration in Germany
The new Porsche Classic Centre was inaugurated in early April 2025 in partnership with the Glinicke Group, a respected name in the German automotive sector. Located in Senden, this state-of-the-art facility is specifically designed to service, restore, and preserve Porsche models that have been out of production for over 10 years.
From the iconic Porsche 911 Carrera RS to the timeless 356 Speedster and the often-overlooked Porsche 928, the Classic Centre is equipped to handle full restorations, genuine parts replacements, and meticulous detailing, all using Porsche-approved techniques and factory-trained technicians.
The facility holds access to over 80,000 genuine Porsche Classic parts, ensuring authenticity and quality throughout every restoration project. Whether it’s a full nut-and-bolt rebuild or routine servicing of a 1990s 993, Porsche owners now have a trusted destination right in the heart of the brand’s home country.
