It is the archetypal sports car for everyday driving, and a style icon that is unmis- takable as both the face and heart of the Porsche brand: the 911. In Zuffenhausen today, the one-millionth model rolled off the production line – a Carrera S in the special colour “Irish Green”, with numerous exclusive features following the original 911 from 1963.

  • PRESS RELEASE Page 1 of 3
    PRESS RELEASE Page 1 of 3 50 years of the ŠKODA 1203: Reliable all-round van with cult status › The ŠKODA 1203 with front cab-over body was introduced half a century ago › Compact van was manufactured at the Czech plant in Vrchlabí and at Trnava in Slovakia › Independently designed packhorse is deeply embedded in homeland pop culture thanks to numerous appearances in popular Czechoslovak films and TV series Mladá Boleslav, 14 September 2018 – The ŠKODA 1203, the most widely used Czechoslovak commercial vehicle of the 20th century, is celebrating its 50th birthday. The van, which was designed as a forward-control pickup, premiered on 14 September 1968 at an engineering fair in Brno. The ŠKODA 1203 was omnipresent in its day and literally accompanied Czechs and Slovaks from cradle to grave – because ambulance and hearse versions were available, as well as countless other variants including microbuses, delivery vans and trucks, workshop vehicles and many more. The history of the ŠKODA 1203 reflects many peculiarities of the centrally controlled planned economy in post-war Czechoslovakia. The development of a light commercial vehicle with an advanced self-supporting body in a practical one-box design had begun in Vrchlabí in the second half of the 1950s – but production was not launched until 1968. The ŠKODA 1203 celebrated its premiere on Saturday, September 14 1968 at the International Engineering Fair in Brno. However, the debut was overshadowed by the occupation of Czechoslovakia by the armies of five Warsaw Pact countries who invaded on 21 August 1968 in response to the ‘Prague Spring’ freedom movement.
