I think that, although it wouldn't be what I'd want if I could only have one 964, this would be my absolute favourite spec for my ultimate 911. Even down to the left-hand-drive. I'd take this over a 3.8RS any day.

I remember a picture of a Rubystone RS on a gravel beach somewhere (in one of my hundreds of books) - there's something very special about that colour for a 964RS.

I use it as much as possible, weather permitting, its a ballistic missile, it's loud and the rides rock hard but I love it considering its 14 years old it's an unbelieveable drive, I've only had it about 3 weeks so it hasn't been out on track yet so I'm absolutely busting to get out and see what it can do

There's been a RHD rubystone RS for sale at Paragon for a few months now. I drove past purely by chance one day and spent about 10 mins sitting in it thinking 'I want this'.

Personally, I'm not sure about the colour though, it's pink isn't it!?!?!

I drove an LHD RS many years ago and didn't mind the hard ride until I hit a bump in the road at high speed and my spine went numb for a minute or so afterwards. I suppose it would be heresy to install a softer suspension setup.

From Kent you could run around the M25 and up the A3 for the SE Meets at Raymond's pub (see this thread). There is one this Sunday which I am going to try and make but my sister is due to give birth any day now so I am reluctant to make any firm plans just yet in case I need to run off to Leeds at short notice. I'm sure you and your car would be very welcome additions to the group.

I guess you can only fit one girly in the car at a time though, with slim hips

Very very nice!
What size/type tires do you run?
Do you get any excessive tire wear with that ride height?

Yeah, but it's like an inverted snobbery effect.

It's so bad it's good...

I love it.
