OTR Car Tours

04/11/2024

We welcome our customers who have already booked their 2025 tours with us. Would you like to join them?

🛣️Legendary roads, breath-taking landscapes, and iconic destinations.

⛰️Choose the challenging mountains of Wales, the hairpin turns of the Alps, the otherworldly vistas of the Scottish Highlands, or the sweeping curves of northern Spain.

😊Friendship and camaraderie are high on our agenda.

➡️We welcome experienced tourers and first timers – couples, friends, and solo drivers of sports and supercars.

“The choice of hotels was perfect, and the roads, well they are just epic, over every crest and round every bend is another vista of rugged perfection, where one just runs out of superlatives. The roads vary hugely from fast sweeping well sighted A roads, where you can push on, to tight twisting mountain passes, all of which are an utter joy to drive.” Steve & Maria

An incredible 911 Turbo, for those that can afford its £853k price tag.

The 930 Turbo has remained somewhat off limits to the restomod scene, until now. Richard Meaden tests the Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer – Classic Turbo

A useful article if you’re looking for the best all round performance tyres for the road. Many of our customers prefer the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 - which wasn’t included in this test, or the Pilot Sport 4S, which came second.

Want to fit the very best tyres to your performance car? The annual evo Tyre Test identifies the cream of the current crop

It’s a wrap. A few initial pics from our outstanding Alps tour last week.

“What can I say, thank you for an incredible trip and experience. I really appreciate all the effort, planning, and places we have been. A real bucket-list tick for me. I’ll be back next year. Again, thanks the trip really was epic - it’s been good to meet some new people.”

An interesting dilemma tonight - sports car tour or a cruise? Which would you choose?

Well, if you’re going to replace a Porsche GT4, why not replace it with a McLaren Artura?!

Congratulations to our customer Andy M on this fantastic rival to the Ferrari 296 GTB. He’s already booked it on to the OTR 2025 Alps Tour.
