Faure began his association with Porsche in 1967 and 1968 when he raced the ex-works 911 that Vic Elford had previously campaigned for Porsche GB. In 1969 he moved into the British Saloon Car Championship under the Porsche Cars GB banner, racing for the Demetriou Group and recording three fourth-place finishes at Silverstone, Snetterton, and Crystal Palace, which placed him 16th overall in the championship and fourth in class.
He stepped back from international competition for the following three seasons before Porsche invited him in 1973 to drive their new Carrera RS 2.7 lightweight in the British Production Sports Car Championship, followed by the RS 3.0 the subsequent year, still under the Porsche Cars GB umbrella.
In 1974 Faure received an invitation from Ecurie Francorchamps to drive a Carrera 3.0 RSR in the British Airways 1000km at Brands Hatch. Gearbox problems prevented the car from finishing, but the connection led directly to his first Le Mans start. In 1975 he co-drove the Carrera 3.0 RSR of "Beurlys" to sixth place overall at Le Mans — a result that would stand as his best at the race; he never again finished inside the top ten there.
His strongest single World Sportscar Championship result came at the 1977 Rivet Supply 6 Hours at Brands Hatch, where he partnered Bob Wollek to fourth overall in a Porsche Kremer Racing 935. His Le Mans record across eleven starts included a mix of machinery: Porsche 911 Carrera RSR, Porsche 934, Porsche 935, De Cadenet Lola (with Cosworth DFV power), Ferrari 512 BB, Lola T610, EMKA Aston Martin C83/1, Dome RC82, and EMKA C84/1. His best finishes after 1975 included 12th overall in 1979 (Ferrari 512 BB), 11th in 1985 (EMKA Aston Martin), and 17th in 1983 (EMKA Aston Martin).
Faure continued racing at Le Mans annually through 1985 and took in further World Sportscar Championship rounds, primarily in England, without significant additional success. He retired from international motor sport after finishing 36th in the 1989 24 Heures de Francorchamps — Lotto Trophy, the Spa 24 Hours, driving an Opel Kadett GSi 16V for the East Belgian Racing Team.
Since the mid-1980s Faure has operated a Porsche specialist business in Surrey, England, concentrating on the 911 and 356 models. His hands-on experience with a wide range of Porsche competition cars gave him deep knowledge that extended into the classic car trade, where he became known for sourcing and supplying selected historic Porsche models. He was also noted for his driving style in the 911, particularly his use of "hands off" opposite-lock cornering technique that demonstrated the car's self-centering characteristics.
