Walter Röhrl's unique private cars and selected racing cars in a high-quality collector's edition in 1:43 & 1:18 scale. This is the Charity Collection by Walter Röhrl and car.tima.
Walter Röhrl's idea:
To offer collectors unique and high-quality miniatures and at the same time do something good. For each of the limited and individually numbered models in the Charity Collection, Main Lichtblick e.V. receives a donation of 5 euros. The association fulfills the personal wishes of seriously ill, physically impaired and traumatized children and young people.
The story of the 356/930 project:
Viktor Grahser, a skilled aircraft engineer from Austria, emigrated to Australia as a young man in the 1960s. In his luggage: his love for sports cars from Zuffenhausen. Soon after, he bought his first Porsche and had a dream: the 356/930 project. He put his thoughts on paper, bought another Porsche and parts, and began to work. Years passed, Grahser and friends founded Australia Porsche 356 Register Inc. and the project developed laboriously. In the 1990s, Viktor Grahser went back to Austria after 31 years. With him: a sea container with the project, two more cars. After returning to his home in Lower Austria, he sits in the container every day to be close to the cars. The relationship with his 356/930 was to become even more intimate. He breaks a huge hole out of the wall of his house, pushes the Porsche through it into the sparsely furnished living room, and bricks up the wall again. From now on, the introverted man lives with his car and makes the relationship between man and machine his most important purpose in life. Viktor Grahser was unable to complete his life's project. He dies in May 2008, leaving behind his house, property, his three beloved Porsches and an extraordinary life story.
Happy end of the project:
Via detours, the cars came to Rafael Diez, owner of Diez-Classic. He fulfilled Viktor's dream and completed the project. In 2018, Rafael Diez tells his acquaintance and Porsche brand ambassador Walter Röhrl about the Roadster and asks him to test drive the 356/930. "I'm a friend of old cars, they still give you the feeling of having to be skilled", says Walter Röhrl. I approached the rebuilt 356 Roadster with turbo technology very cautiously; too much had apparently been changed. So I was really surprised at how perfectly balanced it felt on the first try. The low lip in the front, the heavy engine in the rear, 260 hp, it drives smoothly, precisely and is really fun. So much fun that Walter immediately took over the car, which Rafael Diez then named "Porsche 356 3000 RR". 3000 because of the cubic capacity, and "RR" stands for Röhrl Roadster. Slate gray on the outside, the interior in red. Walter's four winning badges from the Monte-Carlo Rally are enthroned on the hood, the world champion's famous signature is on the dashboard, the car is steered with a 911 steering wheel with a 356-rim, and the instruments are reminiscent of an 911. Rafael Diez fulfilled Viktor Grahser's dream which is surely happy about the prominent owner: Walter Röhrl.
