DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Haha, I wondered if you might mention that Richard! I have erased the entire thing from my memory, the internet and everything else. I'm not even sure it really happened

I do seem to remember a corner it didn't quite go round somewhere - but that's true of all competition cars I guess!

Good discussion and much of it spot-on. The other parameter with a 20 year old car - which 996s are - is whether it's a good one or not. Many have been messed about with and have lot their way as a result. Comfort or Clubsport, buy an original example. Start with magnetic North, then do your own mes...

Great pictures Al, but is that first one really Castle Combe? Best wishes, Robert

Hi Dave, good to hear about Clive and looking forward to the photos. The cars I am aware of are LYL 2D, last seen as a resto project in Australia some ten years ago, and CJM 540D, which I haven't been able to trace. Do you know what colour CJM was? It looks dark blue or something similar from some o...

Within 4 years you will have started the resto. 8 years later it still won't be finished. You will have bought a 992 in the meantime. Amiri...

Indeed. He has been fantastically helpful too Winston! Best wishes, Robert

Some fabulous pictures of 300475 later in the same thread

Very interesting and commendably honest as always Kirk. I await further updates on your 100 litre sender experience - can it really cost £400 to get one that works? Best wishes, Robert
