No special tips or hints, besides doing maintenance as required. Then you should have no problem driving that car for a long, long time. With 65' km on the meter, if you take care of it, the car has about 75% of its life left before rebuild.

Though it would be a very tough choice deciding which canton. You are living in the perfect coutry and driving the perfect car. Enjoy the car and feel free to email me with any questions regarding it. I am always glad to help a fellow 911 owner.

Thanks Ed, yes Switzerland is a great place to live, however the police here are rather excitable when it comes to speeding cars,therefore everyone goes to Germany to exercise their cars or to Italy on a sunday when all the police are in church!!! Of course the mountain passes here in CH are still relativly free from the dreaded Polizei!

Don't worry. The police are the same everywhere these days. It used to be that the United States was the only place that had this problem. But things are changing. You just have to use your head and head for the mountains. Also, with the mountain passes, who needs a track to have fun.

In Sweden they have put up cameras along the highways. Haven't actually heard about anyone being caught on film though. But it is for sure scary. I passed one a year ago who was behind a long bend, doing about 60 mph over the speed limit - s**t! A camera! I was nervous for a couple of weeks but nothing showed up in my mailbox. But after a while you learn where thoose damn cameras are, so you just hit the brakes, pass by and then hit the throttle again.
