Last week, the Clayton Classics team was delighted to attend a Porsche Club GB Region 9 West Midlands meet at The Bear Inn, Berkswell, where we had the opportunity to discuss and showcase our bespoke air conditioning and climate control solutions with fellow Porsche enthusiasts.

It was a fantastic evening meeting owners, talking through the benefits of modern climate control in classic cars, and sharing how our systems are designed to enhance comfort while preserving originality and character.

A big thank you to everyone who came along and made us feel so welcome - we’re already looking forward to the next event.
