DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hope multiple entries are okay...

Car looks great! Good luck

Decided to see what the fuss is about:

@ch3tman

It's always difficult to identify certain colours via digital images as opposed to seeing them (ie the car) 'in the flesh' - & 'Orange' falls into that category. Completely agree. I felt the more knowledgeable may have been able to deduce the colours from the model, on the assumption the colour...

Really enjoyable despite the weather! Some help on colours from the more knowledgeable if possible please? 1. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/862/41905690360_433982ba82_b.jpg 2. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/941/43714493961_40a3508f6d_b.jpg 3.

Thanks all - and apologies - the images were not intended to display so large! Great stance with those wheel. What suspension ?

Over the many years that I was going up to Chris Turners garage I saw a lot of cars that he was servicing. Where are those people going now? One of these maybe?

The customer reckons it's a Porsche colour from the 70's called Oak Green. What do you guys reckon? It looks more like Golf Gti Mk2 Oak Green to me (or are they the same?). There's an Oak Green 993 for sale at RPM at the moment if you need a current reference: https://rpmtechnik.co.uk/sales/vehicle...

Many thanks redrobin911 for posting images.

Sadly the ashtray in the 993 doesn't open far enough to accommodate a phone in landscape mode, and even if it did, there'd be no side support (see here for a pic).

For a really great free solution for smartphones - i.e. Samsung S7 and iPhone of similar size you will find that if you open the ashtray your phone will happily lightly "wedge" in place horizontally - I've used this loads of times and my phone has never dropped or fallen and also have dec...

Thanks, silver911 - that's really helpful.

Apologies, I didn't realise this forum was for technical/mechanical threads only? Happy to delete the thread if I've misunderstood.

Nevertheless, thank you for your input, and of course, the warm welcome...

Thank you silver911, that's precisely what I had almost settled on. It's a little unsightly in comparison to the neat Rennline item above though! Great to know its handled a larger phone and without problems. For anyone reading, note there is the Magic Mount range, and the Magic Mount PRO range, and...

For those who use sat nav on your mobiles, I'd Interested to see how you mount your mobile phone in your car. I dislike anything stuck to the windscreen, so would be interested in any alternative/innovation solutions. The best I've come across is this from Rennline, for all air-cooled 911s: (install...
