DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

I'm up for it , Helen...if you'll pardon the expresion.

Duxford is just up the road from me so we often see beautiful classic aircraft flying around here.

It's a great museum and a great day out.

I saw an interview with Robert Vaughn talking about making Bullitt.

He said that when he was first given the script the plot made no sense at all but it made more sense as the money they offered him to be in it increased.

I'll be there in my '12. I only live about 20 miles away from them so no excuse really.

Loved the movie!

No sign of my 912 though. It was there driven by Dave Lever, the guy I bought it from shortly after his return from CLM.

I suppose I should be grateful that he wasn't thrashing it around the track while it was for sale...or ,at least there is no evidence of such.

I don't live too far away from MP&P so a few weeks ago I thought I'd take a spin out there to see where they are as I'd never been there before. I put the postcode from their website into my sat nav and set off...it took me straight into a supermarket carpark! :lol: I parked up and walked round ...

Not that I'm argueing or defending Vauxhalls and their owners but is that possibly a bit of a generalisation?

Hi Pete,

Where abouts are you? I'm in Saffron Walden...anywhere near you?

If you want to meet up and have a chat about 912's drop me a pm.

Here is the photo (I hope!)



Sitting at a rather bracing -1°c this morning.

I can't seem to resize the photo but I'll keep trying.

I have an originally fitted one in my 912. It is the far left dial on the 5-dial dash. I'll see if I can take a decent photo, but it won't be until tomorrow.

I remember building a model kit of one of these as a boy. I thought it was the most fantastic car I had ever seen. Might have been the start of me lusting after a Porsche.

Looks good so far. Any more photos and info, please?

Excellent! Made me laugh out loud.

I'm glad someone got it. I tried telling it at work today...

It didn't go down well!

Descartes is sitting in a bar.

The barman says, "Hey Descartes, do you want another drink?"

Descartes says "I think not."...

and immediately disappears!


It made me laugh anyway.

A very large Yes please, 1 place for me please.

Cheque in the post.
