Porsche Opens Its Third Classic Centre, in Norway
State-of-the-art facility provides maintenance and restoration services.
One of the most incredible statistics about Porsche vehicles is that 70% of all Porsches are still on the road today. With that many vehicles on the road, and so many of them being older models, Porsche is starting to expand its service centers worldwide. The newest expansion is the Porsche Classic Centre in Son, Norway.
Porsche Classic Centre Son is the third Porsche service center dedicated solely to classic vehicles. With the capacity to repair, restore and service six vehicles at a time, the Son location is sure to be a popular spot for the over 5,000 “classic” Porsches in Norway. There are five highly-trained mechanics at the 2,000 square-meter Classic Centre in Son. These technicians received additional training specifically for classic vehicles from Porsche Classic in Stuttgart.
“The level of motivation of the workforce at the Porsche Classic Centre Son and the trust the classic customers place in their expertise is impressive”, says Alexander Fabig, Director Porsche Classic at Porsche AG.

The Porsche Classic Centre Son is the third Classic Center in the world. In addition to Son, the first Classic Centre was opened in Gelderland in the Netherlands. After the huge success and expansion of that location, Porsche opened their second one in France, in the city of Rouen. Customers and enthusiasts have taken their vehicles to these three locations where the Classic Centres have provided a full range of services, including supplying classic vehicles with 52,000 genuine spare parts, complete and partial restorations and repair and maintenance work.
Alongside the continual expansion of our Classic range of genuine parts, the Porsche Classic Partners and Porsche Classic Centres around the world represent a crucial part of our strategy. Our top priorities are to engage in personal contact with our customers and provide support befitting of the brand,” says Fabig.
For those around the world not lucky enough to be able to take their vehicles to the Porsche Classic Centres, there are other options. There are Porsche Classic Partners who are able to provide high-quality service in over 15 countries around the world, including Germany and the U.S. So, no matter where you’re located, you can find a partner that will ensure your Porsche stays on the road.
