It’s fair time in Paris. So let’s go to the beautiful city on the Seine. Retromobil 2023 is calling. And this time I have the opportunity to go to the fair with a Porsche legend. A ride with Le Mans winner Jürgen Barth himself at the wheel of a Porsche. With just over 24 hours to get there and back and a visit to the fair, it will be a trip into the glorious past of the great Porsche racing era in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Numerous Stuttgart Porsche racing car legends will be on show at Retromobil 2023 in Paris. From the 550 Spyder to the Porsche 907, a Gulf-Porsche 917 to the first built 956 showed up at the fair. Under the light of the exhibition halls, the racing cars, all of which are for sale, invite numerous detailed photos. It is sometimes the small details that tell the stories of the racing cars, and it is precisely such details that Jürgen Barth can tell on the journey from Stuttgart to Paris and back again. The fair shows unique racing cars and cars for collectors and Jürgen Barth knows almost all the stories about these racing cars. In this year 2023, I can’t decide exactly what was more interesting, the ride as Jürgen Barth’s co-driver or the trade fair. It is probably the intersection that makes this short trip to Paris unforgettable.
