It’s fair to say that some cars really are beautiful. And it’s also fair to say that some locations are too – so put them together, and what do you get? This collection celebrates Porsche, not merely as a car, but also a complete lifestyle.
Put together by Derk Hoberg, former member of the editorial board of Porsche Club Germany magazine, it’s clear that there’s plenty of stunning locations, routes and events to choose from when it comes to choosing a collection.
From majestic Alpine passes, such as the Grossglockner High Alpine Road and the notorious and legendary Nürburgring “Green Hell” all the way to the stunning coastal roads of California, not only are the pictures stunning, but the expert insight offered alongside it also extremely illuminating.
This is a book which will sit very nicely on a coffee table, or on the shelf of a car enthusiast, but also landscape and travel lovers will also very much appreciate it.
I myself have no particular affinity to cars – of any brand – but even I couldn’t help but fall in love with the lifestyle presented on these pages. It’s also a book that you can come back to every now and then when you fancy a bit of armchair travel, or perhaps to fantasise about a luxurious lifestyle that is likely out of reach for many of us.
With its softcover, the price is kept fairly affordable – even if the escapes within it are not – so it’s worth considering as a lovely present for a car fan in your life, too.
Porsche Escapes: From Mountain Passes to Coastal Highways by Derk Hoberg is published by teNeues and is available to buy now.
