Trail Rated – Porsche 911 Safari

Trail Rated – Porsche 911 Safari

There's nothing worse than a try-hard. You know the type - perfectly distressed jeans, immaculate bolt-on over-fenders, sticker bombed panels that took 18 hours and a committee to create. They start by trying to portray an image of ‘no care’, but fly right past that...
