The Story

No Going
Back

Henry Biddlecombe had what he thought would be his forever car — a Ferrari 430 Scuderia. Then he made the mistake of test-driving this 993 RS Clubsport. After five minutes in the driver's seat, there was no going back.

"This is the automotive equivalent of heroin. There's no going back after this."

— Henry Biddlecombe

The yellow stripe is an homage to the car's racing past. This 993 RS Clubsport started life as a race car, competing in the 1996 GT Supercars Championship at Kyalami and other South African circuits, driven by Rolf Schlub — who won the series, beating Toby Fenta.

The original car wore yellow decals during its championship days. Henry wanted to honour that history — "albeit in a more aesthetically pleasing way." The result is the striking Riviera Blue and racing yellow livery you see today.

MESEEKS — WP

The license plate is a nod to Mr. Meeseeks — a character designed to do one thing and one thing only, and otherwise destroy itself. Much like this car: an insanely single-purpose machine with a level of madness that's difficult to describe.
