Default LONDON 964 Owners

Just interested how many 964s there are in London...

1. Post your pics...
2. What's your local garage and where?

I'll start here's mine in my signature and I take mine to Peter of No5. Garage in Chisiwick.

Pic is 18 months or so old

Since then:
Lowered
H&R ARBs
Strut brace
Cup airbox
Decat
GPipe
RS Steering wheel
Rear wiper delete
Plus major service, clutch, bushes, etc

Ducktail, Cup 1s, brake ducts and a few other bits sitting in the garage awaiting funds!

Its a slow but enjoyable project
Car is in Bromley and I use Project 9 Engineering

I've had mine for 6 years and have used Weston (Beckenham), RGA (Vauxhall) and JZM (Kings Langley) but usually use the excellent Chelsea Carrera (Earls Court). I have strut brace, de-cat and lowered, green H&R springs, RS steering wheel and carbon fibre seats. That's as far as I intend to go with mods - this is my road car. Oh yes; and a full top & bottom end rebuild at JZM earlier this year.

I moved to Paris nearly 3 years ago from Blackheath, and always had mine serviced by Joe at HP Motorsport in Fairlop. Good honest service at a good price. If only the same could be said about the mechanics in Paris....

Here's mine - will look very different in a few months time. From East London and take mine to Jaz in Wembley for servicing.

Live in Buckhurst Hill, which is Essex, but it's within M25 and has a central line station so I think I qualify!

Garage is also Jaz in Wembley. I used to live in Wembley and go to Le Mans every year with Steve Winter who owns Jaz so don't mind the trip, I don't pick a garage based on location!

Work done since owning: Full engine rebuild, Steve Wong chip, drilled air box + K&N, G-pipe and de-cat, Bilstein HD's + Eibach springs, Brey Krause strut bar and full alignment, new brakes including discs and pads all round, braided lines, etc. Gen RS rear bumper, Cup mirrors, Gen Cup 1 wheels refurbished with new Pirelli P Zero's all round, RS 3.8 lip spoiler and brake ducts, de-badged, OBC retro fit. Car already had sport seats, RS steering wheel, cruise control and working AC (which has also had a new condenser and re-gas), new Blaupunkt CD/MP3 player with Sat Nav and Bluetooth and JL Audio speakers all round (no amp - cant see the point), plus tons of other bits to freshen the car up like pedal rubbers, hood struts, seals, etc. The car now drives like new and is practically perfect to me!

Oh and I've also just had all the fluids replaced during minor service including gear box and diff oils just to be cautious - made the box much smoother!
