It's my video diary of our 2023 9WERKS Road Trip Spectacular from the UK to beautiful Norway! This eight-day adventure saw seven cars from 9WERKS members take in 3,500 miles through seven countries to join our friends from Porsche Club Norway's Sunnmore region at the stunning Geirangerfjord.
I was chuffed to have my dad join me for this trip in Little Irish, my Porsche 996. This video brings highlights from an epic 9WERKS road trip, with memorable stop-offs at some of Norway's best driving roads including the majestic 'Trollstigen', as well as notable visits to Porsche Centre Gelderland, Heritage Parts Centre in Bremen, 911 Motorsport in Belgium, as well as an impromptu tug from German police!
I hope you enjoy the video, thanks to the 9WERKS legends who came along on the trip and joined in the fun of making great memories with these awesome cars. Thanks also to Porsche Club Norway for the continued friendship!

This video just proves that all you need are your favorite people and the right car to have an epic road trip.
Yep, great to share a road trip father with son. Something I have experienced with great satisfaction many a time. Your excursion to Norway with friends / 6 other Porsches and a Yaris (if I got this right) seems to have been an epic moment. And to top this unforgettable journey, the snoring sessions, without which surely this whole adventure wouldn’t have been half of what is was 😅👍
‘Lee, steady on, Christ!’ 😂😂😂 Awesome trip 👍🏼
Hahahaha!
Lee, this would have to be one of your best videos. I loved hearing some of your Dad's stories. You are very lucky that you still have him in your life...I wish my Father was still here 🙏.
Keep up the great work. Life is beautiful, especially in a Porsche 😉. Take care, Paul from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks Paul. It's certainly my most cherished video on the channel, without a doubt. I hope you have some great memories to look back on with your dad, too.
Can we have that on a 9Werks T-shirt please " steady on Lee " . I had a damp left eye watching that.
Hahahaha, that's a great idea!!
This video has inspired me to do a road trip with my father in my 996. Thank you so much for sharing
Brilliant. Your dad snoring cracked me up. Good to create memories like that for you both.
What a fantastic trip. Something to look back on when that sad day comes and Dad departs to that great Porsche Factory in the sky. Great to see someone actually using their Porsche for its intended purpose too. I'm sure Ferry Porsche is looking down and smiling on you both. Cheers
Cheers Darren! Yes a great trip, and special for us both I think. Another great memory made around cars!
Well done! Memories of a lifetime!
Love that bit... Steady on Lee! 😂
Treasure these times. I was blessed to share driving trips with my son and I know the value of this bonding❤
Hey Fred, thanks for the comment, indeed these are memories to treasure. Nobody is promised tomorrow so time spent with family and friends is never time wasted.
'And what did you used to say..... Lend me such and such!'..😂😂😂. Great video Lee and a wonderful trip to take with your dad. Thanks for all the great content, keep it up.
Hahaha, he was quick to throw me under the bus there!! Thank you for the kind words - very glad you enjoyed.
Something really charming about this. The car is brilliant of course (Always loved the 996) but going away with your dad - Precious!
Awesome
Great video on what looked like an amazing journey!
The snoring 🤣
Cheers Phil. Jesus Christ, the snoring… I considered renting a tent outside at one stage!
Excellent seeing father and son enthusiasm for cars, mainly Porsches!
Haha yes, and not so much E-Types clearly!
Thank you for allowing us to be part of this fantastic road trip, also a big hello to dad 👍🏼
That's our pleasure, thanks for watching.
@@9WERKSTV I know someone who is making the trip with his young son. Could you recommend an hotel reasonably near the museum please? Thank you in advance. David
This is fabulous! Back in 2001 my Dad bought his dream car an 88 911 Carerra he shared that with me for 16 years before getting a Golf R DSG as it was easier in his advancing years! We loved that car and so many happy memories. Fathers and sons, share those car experiences. Lee I share your pain as he snored like a chainsaw through 3 days at Goodwood Revival and 1 night at Castle Coombe! I'm now working hard to get a 997 to share with my son!
Brilliant
Good video, and beautiful experience👏🏻👍🏻
Haha thank you, I can laugh about it now but at the time I thought a murder was going to be committed!
😂😂😂
Brilliant story telling! I just wish it was longer! Your poor Dad's snoring!
What an absolutely super video 💥
Well done guys! 🤓
Just lovely, parents won’t always be there and moments like that stay with you. Keep them coming 👍
Thanks Jon.
Fantastic trip what an experience to share with your Dad.
Thank you for this one Lee. I was excited to watch and it did not disappoint! A smorgasbord of Porsche cars and human experiences which I am sure will stay with you for a lifetime.
Thank you Omar, I'm glad you enjoyed watching as much as we did putting it all together. Great fun and fantastic memories made.
17:45. Brilliant emote I can relate to
Really good vid that was Lee loved the old man snoring 👍
Thank you! It was great fun, the snoring I can laugh about now, but at the time I was going mental!!
God bless you and your dad bro!!👊🏾
What great memories you will have of this trip. What is evident is that these 'old' 996's are more than capable of what they were built for, twisty roads requiring agile handling. The newer 911's, while undoubtedly more refined, can't possibly be as engaging.
I have been savoring this episode and what a magnificent episode it was. Would very much like to do such a trip with my dad one day. Fathers are awesome❤ Hope to be able to meet up one day on a future trip of yours to Norway. Next time, maybe come up north of the Arctic Circle and join us at the Arctic Circle Raceway and then traveling to the magnificent Lofoten archipelago🤩
Thanks! Love the Arctic Circle Raceway, last time I was there it was a bike day, would love to drive it in a car!
What a great time you must have had. I hope to do the same thing with my daughter one day. Happy Motoring!
You too, William!
Love that gear knob on the 996..❤
Nice !
Lee, I just wanted to say I absolutely loved the video it was heartwarming to see one of the best guys I’ve ever worked with having the time of his life with his son. It was a joy to watch thanks for the video guys it made my day 👍👍
What kind words, Bruce! Thanks mate, will pass your comment on. Hope all is well with you and the family up north!
Honor thy Father well done
Lee, great video!! Your dad needs to be on more videos.
Love this Lee 👍🏻
Cracking trip and Video with your Dad.... I laughed so hard at the snoring... my Dad used to snore like that... the two of them would put an old Grizzly to shame! I'm popping over for a cheeky visit to Norway this summer ( you and Harry are great inspiration!).... the first three days will mirror your journey up... thanks for the idea of stopping off at the Porsche Garage... Keep the road trips content coming!
Cheers Sunny! Glad you enjoyed the vid, you'll have a top time driving through Norway too, enjoy!
I love this video. Did a similar route on my bike reminisced when I watched u drive down towards Gerhinger fjord. I know that hotel.
Cheers Alex!
Lee, this took me right back to my 996 Norway trip! And you doing it as a father and son trip made me think I've got to do the the same, but the other way round - a bit of father and son time on a similar trip with my son Tom. A great video as usual - well done Lee.
Cheers Chris! Highly recommended with your son too!
👏👏👏👏👏
What a fantastic video. Absolutely fantastic.
Such a special thing to do 👌
I've taken my son on three road trips in my VW Splitscreen bus to Spa Francorchamps circuit when he was between the ages of 10 and 15, he's now 19 and we are planning a couple of road trips in my 997.
What an inspiration this video has been.
Thank you 👌
That's our pleasure, Mike. Sounds like great adventures already secured with your son, I hope you can do many more too - special times.
Quality stuff!
Cheers Min, you ledge x
Great video Lee 👍
Cheers Ian!
Top Job Lee! 👍🤙👏
Thank you!
Brilliant content as always, along with an amazing Dad 👍👍👍
Thanks John! Agreed on the latter.
Great trip buddy! Just watched your video and became even more desparate for an upcoming trip to Nurburgring with my dad in my base 987 boxster.
Very interested to talk about anything that porsche is producing and has produced in general, they are truly special cars that hold time of their own. My journey has bagan from a 986 S and I am privileged to have a porsche specialist who is also my friend who looked after my cars.
Lee… I’m 2 minutes in, luv it already. This video is the equivalent of a family Sunday roast…. In a good way lol.
Shame there’s not an East Coast fellowship - we need road-trips too…
That looks amazing. My dad gets a kick out of it when I rip the turbo down an on ramp😂
Norway is my traveling place for years . Also in my older 911. It's a dream to drive , especially in good conditions ... Also nice to see the hospitality of Porsche Gelderland & the collection in Belgium. And by the way , the sleeping part with your father is hilarious .
Glad you enjoyed, Steven. Clearly you know what Norway is all about, so I can fully imagine you have great fun on those roads in an older 911. Perfection.
Great video, your car looks awesome. 👌
Thanks! 👍
As always, another great video Lee. Stunning scenery and brilliant stop-offs along the way. Your dad's an absolute legend and great company. Are you going to give him a regular slot, as his insights are so funny?
Thank you! I dare say he'll be back!
Nice one man, just had almost the same drive, only I was visiting UK in my 996 and then heading back to Norway. :-)
Amazing, Alexander! Hope you had a fun trip enjoying the same roads as us!
Oh I would love to do same with my dad... you are blessed having a dad being a petrolhead, too. You are both so nice dudes, this content is really appreciated! Can only like once unfortunately.
That's really kind, Mat - thank you.
Great video really enjoyed that. Listening to that sound makes me think you have swapped the motor out for a roaring v8. 😅 your dad is an excellent good sport ❤
Thanks Alan!
I hope your dad was wearing Porsche branded underpants! 😂 Great vid.
Hahahaha!
Hi Lee, great video and thanks for sharing. Just wanted to ask what alloy wheels do you have on little Irish? I’m thinking of getting similar for mine. Cheers
im jealous
Always wanted a porsche 911. My budget would go to a 996, but I'm worried about upkeep or reliability, especially with bore score or the ims but still looking
😴😂😂😂😂great video
Thanks!
snores like a flat six LOL
Hahahaha
Why did you pick ps5s over the ps4s? Also, I'm planning a similar trip next year in my C4S. How long did you spend on the road?
PS5s were available and they are superior to the PS4s. We drove on average 500 miles a day.
Gotta get you some ear plugs😂
Nice.. someone else who doesn't like E types.
That's a flat 6 snore
Hahahaha. Very 964. Baritone.
Brilliant video Lee and your dad’s sense of humour is class 😂
Thank you, he's a top man!
