Default Scratch it off the bucketlist
Good Day Gents,

I am happy to report that I have finally crossed my bucket list objective, as a kid growing up in the 90's the most cars that I like back then are whats hunting me right now. The cars such as the likes of the 512M, F355, 964 Turbo 3.6, Esprit Turbo and Vantage V600.

I still like 90's design over today's design thats why I purchased a 964 Turbo 3.6. I will be picking it up in a couple of days and will post pictures asap.

It's Black/Black 1994 Turbo 3.6

Got the car,

It has been parked for a while and has an exclamation mark when I drive. While its stationary it's about to die. I need to give it some gas.

Anyways atleast its in my garage and thats the last of my worries.

Need to get the side mirror button sorted not working, replace aftermarket stereo, install orange side lights and service it and get everything mechanical to 100% order.




More pics coming tomorrow.

Oil pressure lights is on

The car has been parked for a year, I'll take it to service and see what it needs.

Congratulations. Don't sweat the initial problems. A simple air leak can make them run rough.

Low oil or low pressure? My ! Light comes on every time the car sits. Mine is the brake hydro pump sensor... I hope.
Regardless , nice car! Feel free to share with group anytime.
