Was the 993TT the one with BBS rims (ie from carcity)? Still plenty of $$ in the market for these TTs.

Re turbo twists - will keep an eye out for you.

Should we start thinking of a date in August for a get-together/drive?

Also very keen for a drive. Should get my car back from its service today and hopefully my A/C will pumping out the necessary chill required for driving in this heat...

hmmm...I note that all I needed to do was send the Zuffenhauser back home to Oz and already I dont get invited to the drives...((

I am going to have to trade the Spider on a TT soon so you guys will let me back in the fold.

Nice to see Rennlist is active in HK. I've recently joined and getting up to speed. I have been looking for someone to refinish my Targa wheels. Wheels are good but bolts securing split Rims are rusty. Any ideas on a good refurbisher in HK???

Mark - you are always welcome - though you will be more welcomed if you trade in your spider for a TT. How's the spider by the way? So far so good apart from the overheating issue?

Alan,
The slippery slope is beckoning...seeing as I have decided against getting a turbo, I thought I would do a few little things to the cab.

Well - thanks again to Darren for organising drinks tonight to have a good ol' chat.

As for the next drive - for those in HK not present tonight - it's been tentatively set for 1st or 2nd of September.

Cheers,

Alan

nice one Daz, looking forward to the next drive

funny to hear all the lust around the table for the TTs and yet not a lot of action...I reckon once one of us goes at least another one or two will follow!

I reckon that Rex will pull the trigger on a TT soon...we just need to give him a gentle nudge. Time for me to put my maphaesto hat on...
