where's my old Black 912E????? now adays
Have to say was a nice car and I wish i still had it..Although I did break down in it twice which NOW I laugh about..
Once when I stalled it and it wouldn't start ( hot start ) so both me and my mate had to push the car in rush hr traffic very uncool.. esp in a black Porsche!!
and once when I was zooming down the motor way I came off the slip road and it started to splutter and I realised the fuel had run out ( gauage not working ) and I managed to roll to with in 5 meters of the slip road end and had to call me Dad to come and drop me off 1gallon of fuel ( not very cool but I did look cool sat on the front bumper waiting for my Dad in the sun.. But the motorway camera's had turned to watch me.. I had to wave!!

Your old black E was a superb looking car... despite the US front-bumper reflectors and the front fogs! LOL!!
Justin offered it to me when he was selling, but I couldn't go to his asking price. Anyways, I really like the old skool look of mine... chrome trim and funky 70s colour!
Had no breakdowns yet (touch wood!). I have had to stop on the M-way a couple of times when the brakes were binding to let em cool off though. As you say, not a cool look when driving a Porsche!!
Rear plate and bumperettes will be changed for Euro spec soon.

Neil... the new plate looks well better mate. And I have to say, the car looks lovely in those photos! And yes, I was eyeing up the pressed plates... I want the proper retro ones though. I believe Framptons are good for these.
Could meet this weekend if you fancy it? Happy to come over your way.
