The 1972 Porsche 911S ‘Ölklappe’ is one of the rarest and most distinctive 911 variants, produced for just a single year. Nicknamed Ölklappe (German for “oil flap”), it featured a unique outside oil filler flap on the right rear fender, specified by the engineers at Porsche in their ongoing work to improve the 911. Racing experience had shown that the re-location of the oil tank to the front of the rear wheel, helped to improve handling. Unfortunately, many owners mistook it for the fuel filler and poured petrol into the oil tank, leading Porsche to abandon the idea after 1972.

As the top-of-the-line 911, the 1972 911S was powered by a 2.4-liter flat-six with Bosch mechanical fuel injection, producing 190 horsepower at 6,500 rpm. Coupled with the 915 5-speed manual gearbox, the car could accelerate from 0–100 km/h in just 6.6 seconds and reach a top speed of around 230 km/h, remarkable figures for the early 1970s.

Chassis refinements included wider Fuchs alloy wheels, ventilated disc brakes, and revised suspension geometry, giving the 911S exceptional handling balance and making it a favourite among serious sporting drivers. Visually, it retained the classic narrow-bodied 911 silhouette, but the external oil filler makes it instantly recognizable to enthusiasts, making the 1972 911S Ölklappe among the most collectible early Porsche 911. 

This particular Porsche 911S was restored 5 years ago with its previous owner, a very prominent German collector. The Porsche was restored ‘nut and bolt’ in his workshop to original specification including the original Signal Gelb colour that it was delivered with when new. Naturally it is a matching numbers Porsche 911S. German first delivery.

The restoration was done to a very high standard at the collector’s own workshop and with a no expense spared ethos. In every respect this is a new car or better than new: the engine compartment, the underbody, the suspension, the interior. Everywhere you look, the 911S has been rebuild and is clean and solid. The 911S specific Recaro sports seat with Pepita inserts and the original four spoke leather covered steering wheel, top of the interior and for those in the know, immediately reveals the model designation.

If anyone is still in doubt, you only need to fly past another car on the highway who will be left wondering how fast and agile a classic car can be? The answer my friend, is there to read on the engine lid: Porsche 911S.

Today the Porsche 911S has seen very limited use with its current owner and with just 11.000km completed since restoration, it will be difficult to find a better and more reliable 1972 Porsche 911S.

Very easy to use and clean
Size: 22'' X 22''
Saved my pad training with my puppy. It's firm and easy to clean. It holds the pads well for the most part, but sometimes my dog gets a little crazy and it comes out, but I don't think it could be better. Still give a 5-star!

Don’t buy
Size: 28'' X 34''
Mine arrived broken and scratched I think I received one that someone had returned. It also doesn’t hold pads that well my 4 lb teacup Yorkie is able to pull the pad off of the pad holder without even ripping the pad.

Excellent!
Size: 22'' X 22''
Highly recommend this pad holder. Does an excellent job keeping the pad secure and in place. No more shredded pads since. Bonus: no leaks on the floor. It’s so practical and so helpful.

Pretty Good But Not Perfect!
Size: 28'' X 34''
I have been using two of these frames for my miniature poodle puppy for almost a month now and while they are useful, they could be improved. The size of the frames are great for our miniature size poodle puppy and the Amazon pads that fit the frames absorb well without leaking underneath. The grips on the bottom of the frame keep it in place so it does not slide across floor. The frame hinges in the center so you can easily carry it through doorways. I am in my 60's so it is nice to be able to carry it to my work table in order to change pads while standing up. My 4 month old 10 pound puppy can make a dinner plate size circle of pee onto the pad first thing in the morning. 4 large pees are easily held by the pee pads before needing to change it but we prefer to change the pads more often for sanitary reasons. Not sure if you have a very large breed dog that these would work for you. Our puppy likes going on these without hesitation so they are comfortable for him to walk around on and turn to find just the right spot! Compared to other brands I have looked at this is a great value for money and worth a try to help with potty training your pup. Our puppy sleeps in an X-pen inside of our home at night and when we are gone so these help with keeping the pads where we want them. We have two - one inside X-pen and one by door where we are training puppy to go outside. These frames are nice in appearance and seem like they will last but they are a little awkward to use compared to another brand I purchased which was more durable and easier to change pad. I ended up with these because other brands do not offer such a large size (28 x 34). Our main complaints about these frames are: 1. The top frame is hinged and a little wobbly to manuever over the edges of the pee pads. Another brand, while a bit smaller, has a solid one piece frame that goes over entire pad in one step. This frame requires a three step process of laying pad down, pulling edges out flat and placing one side of frame down and then repeating on other side. There is usually a bit of adjustment that needs to be done and so requires opening and closing the frame again for adjustments. 2. The Amazon pee pads that fit this frame hold the pee well without leaking but have very thin tissue paper like edges (blue) that do not extend out far enough to make capturing the edges of the pee pad under the frame very easy to maneuver. It would be a game changer if the pads were made at least 1" bigger around length and width so edges are firmly held in place. 3. Our tiny 10 pound poodle pup is able to easily dig out edges of pad and tear it up. Not as bad as a loose pad by any means, but blue edges are exposed at side centers where frame hinges and there is no cover of edges (unlike a one piece frame) and the blue color seems to attract him. He can dig and loosen pad on any side because there is no way to hide and hold down all of the blue edges of pee pad. I am still using these to potty train and, as I said earlier, these are way better than loose pee pads. I may shop for even larger size pee pads in the future to better lock down all of the edges without so much difficulty.
