About DW Performance

High performance vehicle specialists.

An independent, family-run Porsche workshop in Northamptonshire. Run hands-on by Carl and Jess.

Our ethos

Main dealership standards. Without the main dealership experience.

Our ethos is to provide main dealership standards with attention to detail and competitive, honest pricing – combined with a great customer experience.

We offer a wide variety of services including car servicing, general maintenance and repair, performance upgrades, circuit preparation, trackside support and restoration. Predominantly on Porsche, with other prestigious marques also welcome.

We deliberately keep our client list manageable. It means we can give each car the attention it deserves, and the person who looked at your car last time is the person looking at it this time.

Owner & technician

Meet Carl.

My career started at Silverstone Circuit working on Porsche and performance vehicles – from minor service and inspections through to restoration and large tuning projects.

I then made the jump to freelance, travelling across the country diagnosing and repairing vehicle faults, and I had the opportunity to work with a successful Porsche Motorsport team running a 991 GT3 in the renowned Carrera Cup series.

Every car that comes through the workshop today gets that same approach – experienced hands, proper diagnostics, and a straight conversation about what the car actually needs.

Front of house

And Jess.

Jess looks after every booking, every collection and delivery, and every conversation that surrounds the work. If you have phoned the workshop, you have spoken to Jess.

Jess is also passionate about promoting women in the automotive industry – making sure every Porsche owner who walks through the door is met with the same warm, jargon-free welcome, regardless of how technical the conversation is going to be.

Trackside together

Where the workshop meets the circuit.

Beyond the workshop doors, Carl and Jess host clients at some of the most iconic circuits in Europe. Track days are where the relationships built over services and restorations come into their own – owners, friends and family, all sharing the cars they love.

From the Nürburgring Nordschleife to closer-to-home favourites like Silverstone and Donington, Carl organises the logistics, the garage support and the on-track guidance. Jess looks after the people, the paddock and the moments in between.
