I was at Pinewood studios the other week and found this tucked away behind the 007 stage. It was a bit tricky getting a proper picture cos it was surrounded by other cars. I'll be back there in the next few weeks and try to get a better one.

Those bendy buses take up too much parking space obviously. Still, clever lad got his Porsche in that tight spot!
 
Actually, this is a rare example of the extremely rare Porsche 911 SC Targa Turbo Shooting Brake, or the Porsche Real Fast Station Wagon as it was to be known for the North American Market. They tried to disguise it for driving around Stutgart by removing the badge, but it obviously takes more to fool experts like us!

As we now of course know, this idea was abandoned as it was clearly silly in favour of the Cayenne project which is errr... not. Note the Porsche Design wing mirror extensions. Brilliant.
 
One could be forgiven for thinking the back addition bears a strong resemblance to Postman Pat's van. Maybe they're upgrading him to some kind of Bond super-villian for the next 007 epic: Latino Royale Mail, or On Her Majesty's Postal Service?

Of course, an old Targa would be a great foil to Bond's anodyne modern Astons
