Default Here at last!

Just taken delivery of a 1997 C4S. Also, became a member of Rennlist today. Probably will post a question or two tomorrow. Anyway, here is a picture of my new daily driver.

Phil,

Can't wait for the traffic to clear for the blast home at night. Makes that extra hour in the office/gym/bar worthwhile.

Welcome aboard Nick. Looks great. Get ready for the ride of your life. Don't forget you must accessorize, acessorize, acessorize which equals= personalize because there is no substitute.

Theo,

Spend a year looking! Send me a PM and I will give you the gory/glory detail. It can be done for fair/reasonable money. The "known" heavily advertised dealers have a very(!) slow rate of sale. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

That sound on starting fist thing in the morning! Does everyone start their 993 with the drivers door open!? I do.
