TAIPEI: California-based luxury automotive brand, Singer Group, Inc., recognised worldwide for its restorations of the air-cooled Porsche 911, announces its expansion in Asia and welcomes Taipei-based Yun San Motors into the company’s global partner network.
With current global partnerships reaching from North America, across Europe to Hong Kong, the new relationship with Yun San Motors further strengthens Singer’s brand in Asia.
New clients in Taiwan would be able to learn about Singer’s services and discuss their requirements in a sophisticated and welcoming environment, surrounded by a high level of customer support from the team at Yun San Motors.
The announcement also means that both Singer’s existing clients and future owners in Taiwan would have access to expert, in-country servicing and maintenance from a trusted partner.
Already on the roads of Taiwan is a 1991 Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer. Named the Taiwan Commission by its owner, the car is presented in Silver Metallic with matte side stripes and Olive lettering.
The interior is trimmed in Olive Green with Alabaster stitching. Lightweight carbon fibre track seats have been selected, with embossed suede inserts and brass grommets.
The heart of this machine is a 3.8L, naturally aspirated, air-cooled flat-six, paired with a 5-speed transmission. The signature centre-mounted fuel-filler and external side-mounted oil filler are both specified.
Singer founder and executive chairman Rob Dickinson is enthusiastic about the Taiwanese connection.
“The Porsche 911 is of course loved all over the world and we restored our first car for Taiwan in the early years of Singer. It’s very exciting to be taking this next step in Singer’s second decade.
"As we complete restorations of these incredible machines for a growing number of owners in Asia, we need a remarkable partner to look after them. I’m delighted that Yun San Motors will be there to support our amazing clients in Taiwan and to represent Singer.”
“The growth of the Singer brand over the last 10 years has been remarkable. We look forward to supporting Singer’s clients, building the brand and seeing more of these beautiful cars on the road here. Yun San Motors represents some of the most iconic automotive names in the world and I’m delighted that Singer is now part of the family,” said Yun San Motors chairman Timothy Chang.
Founded in California in 2009, Singer has become globally known and respected for its celebration of the Porsche 911. The company undertakes bespoke restorations for owners of the air-cooled cars.
Over the past decade Singer has become a luxury brand with a global clientele and is now synonymous with the concept of Reimagining – bringing together heritage with 21st century engineering and material science.
The brand has been growing beyond car culture, with an award-winning Swiss watchmaking division, Singer Reimagined, launched in 2017.
