This year will see one of our dreams come to fruition, that dream was seeing our wide body Porsche GT3R for the 997 chassis as a road going conversion on UK roads, we have seen a few road creations come to life around the world from aero kits we have supplied, but there is nothing like a home grown build and collaboration with our friend Iby from speedwells has seen that dream come to life, seeing the build stage by stage has been exciting, but being based on the Turbo model it was always going to be a bit of a challenge, but huge credit to Iby as he has been very methodical in his thinking for this build, with some lovely touches, which is what a build like this needs.

Supplying our aero parts around the world we get to meet and link up with like-minded people through our social media network and that’s just what happened with Joe AKA #997turbocab, to say Joe is a Porsche fan is a little bit of an understatement, check out his Instagram, our personal Favorite is his 997.2 GT3 4.0LTR build by the BBI team, and now he has commissioned them to build his latest Porsche, The 991 GT3R in road going form, and yes you read that correct, Joe has ordered and had delivered every carbon fibre “R” panel for his street going 991 GT3 and boy oh boy are we excited to see this one come together.

We don’t think BBI need any introduction, they are known throughout the world building some pretty special Porsche's, and this build I'm sure will be up there as one of the best, what we do know is this is the first of its kind globally, and Joe will be using on the road as much as he can, in his own words, this is going to be his grocery getter, its one build we are really exciting thinking about, we think BBI Autosport are going to break the Internet with this one.

This year has seen us part company with various wheel brands, companies we have worked a long side for a long time, but quality along with business ethics is something we feel very strongly about, we are old school at VAD, where standards and decent morals mean everything, we don’t think that is a lot to ask for, if you use our name and brand to help your own brand we expect a bit of loyalty in return, as we are extremely loyal to the cause and the people and brands we work with, unfortunately this year it hasn't quite worked out the way we planned, but it’s a huge market with some great companies that make some great products, all you have to do is go and look and do your research, which is what we did, things happen for a reason and as we aren't the kind of company that wallows in pity feeling sorry for ourselves and things have a great way of coming full circle.

During our search for new products we came across Litespeed racing who we are working with on a couple of projects, the Mercedes Edition one with a set of full carbon and magnesium Monoblock wheels and our up and coming magnesium 3 piece wheels for our good friend Mark Poxton and his amazing McLaren F1, which we can’t wait to start.
