Great pic, looks very real to me.

Re: Your Porsche pic of the day......
Hello Spook
That’s a very nice 914 you have there. I see you had a dry day at Rowallan. I also live in Ayrshire and a member of the ACCC but unfortunately was away that weekend. Were you at PITG with your other car? There are a few ddkers in this neck of the woods. Where are you based?
Regards
Mike

Re: Your Porsche pic of the day......
Hi Mike,
Thanks, yeah, my 914 is a wee cracker
I'd been looking for years before finally settling on this one. 1974 1.8cc in rare berber yellow running on twin Dellorto's. I've spent a few months since I got her, fettling and tuning, and she's running and driving great, and everything works, even the handbrake
Rowallan was a great afternoon out, good food and dry weather as well. I went to PITG with my Speedster replica as I was invited, but still really nervous of how it would be received, but everyone was great, and to my shock, she won BEST IN SHOW 

. We have pm'd before, I'm in Troon,
Cheers Colin
