Porsche’s makeover by Dubai mechanic leaves owner with a Porshce

It looks like a Porsche, it drives like a Porsche and it certainly costs the price of one. But it reads Porshce? If you spot this super car on Dubai roads, don’t write it off as a fake because it is the real deal gone wrong in a service centre.

The owner of a silver 911 took his car to a service centre in Dubai to get the bumper fixed but left with a car that no longer spells luxury.

A picture of the mixup by the mechanic at the centre was taken by the owner’s friend and has now gone viral on social media. While many people didn’t get the joke (it is quite tricky to spot the error), others took to Twitter to share their amusement. @Brosator says: “that’s just the ‘made in China’ version!” Another Tweeter @Dani_Alves says: “this is where being dyslexic isn’t fun”
