Marketing that as a replica of the Wallis in the Bond film is like painting a Beetle with yellow Dulux gloss and saying it’s a replica of the Ruf CTR.

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
It wasn’t actually a Carrera. They initially said it was, despite quoting a standard 911 chassis number and having what’s clearly not a Carrera engine. The only Carrera-ish thing was flared arches.

Re: 911s finally finished
Yes! Look at that! It’s pretty brilliant to buy a new car. Brillianter still to commission one to be built for you. But nothing is more brilliant than doing so much of it yourself. Doesn’t matter in the slightest if you’ve accidentally passivated a washer that would have been bright zinc from the fa...

You’d fit half a dozen systems in the engine bay. Loads of room.

Re: 928
My friend ran a manual S2 as his main car from 95-140k miles from maybe 2014-2018 or so. He reckons he broke even to almost the £ (he had a spreadsheet…) on running costs vs appreciation, about £2k a year on average. It was basically very reliable and he got 22mpg over its time with him (also on the...

Yiss! I saw that for sale and liked it lots.

Re: Ferrari - The movie
Le Mans 66 / Ford vs Ferrari proved that big name big budget car films can work ($200m+ against a $95m budget), but I guess that was pre pandemic and it was written and directed by some pretty outstanding talents (Jez Butterworth is an early Porsche enthusiast) but Michael Mann is hardly a beginner....

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
Look! A genuine 2.7 Carrera! Same engine as the RS! https://www.carandclassic.com/auctions/1974-porsche-911-gOAKm4 Good to hear it had head gasket work in 2016. Always one to watch for on these. I can’t be bothered to look at all the pictures but what’s the bet that their claim of ‘no visible rust’ ...
