hello everybody,
i bought my 1st porsche 9 months ago ( 964 targa 4 ) and am enjoying it loads.
i have been on another 911 forum ,where i heard about this forum.
i am a 48 year old mechanical engineer by trade, working in a factory.
if i encounter any problems i will try to fix them myself 1st, if not i will have to use an independant garage or as a last resort a porsche main dealer.
I will start reading through all the old 964 posts before i start to ask questions.
best wishes to you all
steve

Welcome Steve! You will find a wealth of knowledge and great people here. They've already helped me through pinpointing an electrical problem and several other things and I've had my 911 for a month.

Welcome! What year is your car? It looks identical to mine, but with the steering wheel on the wrong side.

More Pics!!!

Looks like a 91 - plastic intake and flag mirrors. Welcome to the slippery slope and have fun!

Edit: A 92, really? With the flag mirrors? Never knew that...
