2026 Theon Design GBR007
By Lorenzo Bianchi November 14, 2026
The 2026 Theon Design GBR007 is based on the Porsche 911 (964), featuring lightweight carbon fibre bodywork, Medium Ivory paint, Grand Prix White stripes and Copper Brown Metallic detailing.
A naturally aspirated 4.0-litre air-cooled flat-six produces 420 bhp and 324 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive.
Weighing 1,150 kg, the commission features TracTive adaptive suspension, Recaro CS seats and an interior developed for long-distance touring. Prices start at £420,000.
2026 Theon Design GBR007 Brings Classic Porsche Styling
The 2026 Theon Design GBR007 is a bespoke Porsche 911 commission created for a British customer, combining the familiar appearance of an air-cooled 911 with extensively revised engineering.
Revealed on January 15, 2026, the car is based on the 964-generation 911 and was developed over approximately 18 months at Theon Design's Oxfordshire facility.
The brief was straightforward. The owner wanted a restrained exterior, serious performance and suspension suited to British roads.
The finished car weighs 1,150 kg and can accelerate from 0–60 mph in under four seconds.
Medium Ivory Bodywork With Grand Prix White Stripes
The exterior is finished in Medium Ivory, complemented by Grand Prix White stripes and Copper Brown Metallic Porsche lettering.
Theon Design co-founder Adam Hawley oversaw the design, retaining the classic 911 silhouette while introducing lightweight carbon fibre panels.
Champagne detailing appears around the headlights, mirrors and rear engine cover grille. Polished Eclipse Chrome finishes the window surrounds.
The paintwork required more than 300 hours across a 20-stage process before receiving full paint protection film.
Lightweight Construction and 17 Inch Fuchs Wheels
Development began with a Porsche 964 donor stripped to bare metal and digitally scanned.
The chassis received additional seam welding before being fitted with carbon fibre bodywork.
Unlike more track-focused builds, this commission uses 17-inch three-piece Fuchs-style wheels finished in champagne.
Copper Brown Metallic brake callipers sit behind them, with Porsche 993 RS braking hardware and Michelin Pilot Sport tyres.
Touring-focused springs and five-stage TracTive adaptive dampers provide suspension adjustment through a steering-column-mounted dial.
Tobacco Leather Interior With Recaro CS Seats
Inside, the carbon fibre cabin is trimmed in Tobacco nubuck leather and contrasting Licorice semi-aniline leather.
Ivory stitching connects the interior colours with the exterior finish.
Recaro CS seats feature carbon fibre backs and woven leather centres incorporating Tobacco, Licorice and Ivory detailing.
Machined aluminium vents, door handles and switches replace conventional plastic components.
The rear seats have been removed to accommodate a leather-trimmed carbon fibre storage deck and matching luggage.
An Audison amplifier, six Focal speakers and two subwoofers provide audio, while wireless phone charging is integrated into the centre console.
Naturally Aspirated 4.0 Litre Flat Six Engine
The GBR007 uses a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre air-cooled flat-six producing 420 bhp at 7,600 rpm and 324 lb-ft of torque.
Open intake trumpets draw inspiration from Porsche's 1970s RSR racing cars.
Independent throttle bodies and upgraded ignition support engine response, while a switchable exhaust allows quieter operation when required.
Power reaches the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox built to Porsche 993 RS specification.
The pedals have also been repositioned to improve alignment with the steering wheel.
Theon Design Commission Pricing and Production
Each Theon Design commission is developed directly with its owner, with individual choices extending to suspension calibration, engine character and interior materials.
The company quotes an 18-month build process.
Prices for bespoke coupes start at £420,000, excluding the donor vehicle, shipping and local taxes.
The GBR007 follows Theon's approach of retaining the familiar character of the air-cooled Porsche 911 while adapting its engineering for modern road use.
