Re: Unusual 911 specialist needed

Sorry to hear of your bad luck. I didn't get round to doing it to my 911 but it was the first thing I did to my 914, it's from an MX5. The lights are so low and dim compared to modern cars I felt it was worth upsetting 914kev and his views on originality. http://i595.photobucket.com/albums/tt39/jac...

Re: Unusual 911 specialist needed

I've done a hot rod/racing style one on mine - makes a big difference Hey Sladey – got any pictures? I'm giving it series consideration. Next step is a respray in Signal Yellow. After some hunting I've found the pictures - they are here http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/markslade/null_zps409e2...

Unusual 911 specialist needed

Can anyone recommend a specialist who can carefully remove the invisibility cloak from my car?

Rear-ended on the way home last night for the third bloody time in less than a year...

Re: Wrecked long hood before Revival

+1 for the Transit – could tow the Lancia home. And am I mistaken but, brillant event though it be, was there a slightly higher quotient of braying ninnies this year? Champagne and smoked salmon in the car park is cool (although I'm more of a pork pie man myself), but blaring classical music? And co...

Re: Wrecked long hood before Revival

So that's what happened. We all winced when we saw what was clearly fresh accident damage. What is it with 911s? Too small? Too low? I've been shunted twice in the last 12 months. But wasn't Goodwood great? If my Flickr account hadn't been locked because I don't want a bloody Yahoo email account, I'...

Something and nothing

So I'm driving my E into work a little late today, through heavy traffic in east London, keeping an eye on the young lady in the brand new 911 behind me. Then I notice, just peeping out from behind her is… no, it can't be… And then, at the next set of lights, he pulls alongside me: a speccy, shaven-...

Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?

It's an interesting question Darren, given that everyone surely knows that Es are the coolest 911s…

But in any Top Trumps game, in the category of Coolest Car in the Supermarket Carpark, that wins hands down.

Orange 911

Being driven swiftly around east side of Berkeley Square this morning. Looked great among all the huge Bentleys and Maybachs.
