Even after 11 years she still thrills & scares me in equal measure! Truly, truly amazing. All cars should be like this!

Now, in for a complete body restoration and then back to work in all weathers and uses.

Yeah, but it's a bit like having kids. They too can be a PITA but also bring lots of joy!
Fwiw, a standard car can bring just as much headache. My car was relatively standard for 4 years. I could never go back!

My 993TT is the one car I will never sell-until I'm committed to a nursing home....

I bought mine in 1996 and still have a lot of pleasure driving it, even if I race a 997 cup . Definitely my best road Porsche …. Never sell .
