First world problems…

As an employee of a peprduur luxury hotel in Cannes is no single day is the same. The one time push you a Pagani Zonda with ignition problems, the next day you stand a quarter of an hour to torture to a bag in the trunk of a Porsche 918 Spyder to come up.

What we see is a very, very farcical display: hotel staff, but to push and mash to a piece of luggage in the cabin of the (for a hybrid) lightweight Porsche 918 Spyder to get, while his well-stocked eigenaresses helpless and watch.

You feel the pain of the millionaire who would like an extra pair of designer takes you on a vacation, but at the same time also like to be sporty, and so with little luggage space driving. Poor ladies…

Pro-tip, Porsche offers an “Exquisite five-piece luggage set matching the colour of the interior”, made of leather, carbon and alumnium. For an unknown amount of money you get:

trolley case for luggage compartment with expander mechanism to ensure optimum fit with or without the roof half stowed
(volume approx. 30 and 60 litres, respectively)
bag perfectly shaped to fit the free space underneath the ascending centre console (volume approx. 7 liters)
bag for the glove compartment (volume approx. 4 liters)
– two garment carriers, which can be attached to the anchorage points for the six-point racing harnesses behind the seats
