Mr JWW embarked on a daring mission with his Porsche GT3, aiming to rack up an impressive 100,000 miles to claim the title of the highest mileage example worldwide. However, his journey was far from smooth sailing. Acquired from Olympic champion Chris Hoy, the GT3 underwent a series of radical modifications that caused significant delays in reaching the milestone. From paint changes to wing removal, the car transformed into a unique beast, but at a cost—lengthy periods off the road for customization.

The GT3 faced a reckoning as Mr JWW shifted focus to the Nurburgring challenge with Porsche and Michelin, putting the mileage quest on hold. The car's neglect for over a year only added to the laundry list of issues, from uneven tread wear to missing screws and broken clips. Despite the setbacks, the team rallied to conduct a major inspection and service, ordering parts to address the car's ailments. With meticulous attention to detail, they delved into the GT3's inner workings, checking discs, changing oil and filters, and scrutinizing every component for wear and tear.

As the GT3 underwent a thorough examination, the team's determination to push it to its limits shone through. Plans to reintroduce the car on the channel marked a new chapter, potentially adding another 20,000 miles in a year. While challenges loomed, including coolant leaks and missing parts, the team's resolve to make the GT3 the ultimate high-mileage champion remained unwavering. With a blend of passion and expertise, they navigated the GT3's complexities, ensuring it was primed for the road ahead.
