Default THe "Bible" is no more

The site which had most of the Porsche magazine road tests from the last 20+ years has shut down.
http://www.einszweidrei.de/
It seems the owner is initially worried about copyright and a new law in Germany which he thinks means publishers will be after him...

He says when and if he starts the site up again he will not include any cars over 1500kg in weight or with bad fuel consumption !! He seems to have a real bug about cars getting heavier and heavier...

Real shame since that site was a great archive......Are there any other such test compilation sites with Porsches on-line ?

Bad news. It was a great source of information. I hope they bring it back up.

OMG, I use this site so often.

I need at least the Porsche part.

Hope he will re-publish the whole site and just not add any heavy cars or cars with bad mpg.
