Employer Description:The first Porsche sports car arrived in the UK in 1951 when two cars were displayed at the Earl’s Court Motor Show in London. This was arranged by Charles Meisl, a salesman for Connaught Cars in Ripley, Surrey. Later in 1952, Meisl was appointed official importer through Colborne Garages.
In 1954, AFN Ltd signed an agreement to import Porsche cars to the UK, which it also sold from its premises on London Road in Isleworth, Middlesex. Two years later, AFN became the UK concessionaire of Porsche until 1965 when Porsche Cars Great Britain Limited was formed. A move which successfully separated the importing functions from the sale functions.
