I am afraid the pictures are not as stunning as yours (I meant to post on your thread earlier)....but thanks! I think Greg must get the 'overtaking maneuvre with least time to avoid the oncoming car' award on the day - it wasn't that close, but certainly the other car was in sight when he went...

Look us up any time you are over here Howard!

Ah yes, Christer, I thought I heard your car out and about!

Always good to see some pics of 964s.

Two out of those three I have met - I'm getting to be a real old hand!

OH NO!!

At 100,000 miles - isn't it now due for a top-end rebuild??






(Seriously - great pics!!! I'm even more thrilled to see that someone else has the good sense to leave their Flag-mirrors installed )....

I respectfully disagree as I thought these were very nice pics!

Its funny that when I was in my late teens I drove my Vauxhall Viva and later my Ford Cortina from Macclesfield (in Cheshire) to Sheffield on a regular basis to visit my girlfriend in University. I would drive across the moors and over the Castleton pass (quite treacherous in the winter time). During this time I always day dreamed about getting my first 911 and decided that THE DAY I got my first Porsche I would take it on this particular journey. Living in California I didnt realize this personal goal, however I still look forward to doing it one day. When I was in the UK some months ago I rented a Rover and as I drove around visiting old haunts I recalled my dreams of driving them in a Porsche...at least this time I had a better idea how it might feel! Its a shame p-cars arent as readily available for hire as Austin Rovers!

California is breathtaking and has some brilliant roads, but for a homesick ex-pat Its great to see all the pictures of these wonderful cars in the glorious English countryside!

There was plenty of time Christer

It was a wonderful thing seeing three 964 spoilers lifting and dropping in syncronisation as we wound our way through the countryside
