You know what? That overpriced white lefty 3.2 with body kit and cup wheels that has been on TM for 3 or 4 years is starting to look like value.
A closer look and it has something like your '64 with a different AFM and ECU?

Lola has now got central locking. Thanks for fitting it up Dan.

New oil pipe has solved the air leak and the fan motor no longer sounds like a cricket. :-)

Tore's central locking remote is a great mod for the 964.

The 944 has finally arrived from Japan, nice car too apart from the bolster wear on the seats.
1990 S2 in Gunmetal grey, looks like someone has upgraded the brakes with 928 S4 parts and put Koni adjustables on, looks like she may need some new rotors but very sound otherwise.

New toy arrives on Monday. Has been mostly sitting for the last 5 years, so booked for major service, new tyres and geo over the next 2 weeks. Car is kiwi new and club sport spec. I will keep basically stock (as Matt G is $30K+ up the development road, and Nigel C is too fast for me), and use as NITT/SITT and track day toy.

Not sure what the end game is for the GT3, it's an itch I needed to scratch. I am not a collector, there are just lots of different Pcars I want to try and I find stiffness, buckets, red seat belts and a 8200 RPM redline quite intoxicating.

993 is going nowhere at this stage, and will be my Sunday driver. Though I would consider selling for a reasonable offer. I'm really enjoying driving the 993 at the moment as the car is fully sorted and driving really well.

I think a 993/996 GT3 is a nice combo to try for a while - they are quite different 911 experiences, so I don't feel like I am duplicating.

Nice Paul, good spec. You must have secured it via the underground? I didn't see it on the market.

Nice one Paul. She looks sharp and I still look forward to seeing her in the flesh.

Congratulations Paul. Life's too short not to exercise your passion. Looking forward to her joining us on a dawn raid soon.
