Hi Guy's

There is a story, and it goes like this....

I was 12 years old, waiting at the bus stop, when a black porsche came flying past, Bearing in mind, it was 1985 so not many porsches on the road..i just thought WOW!! It then turned round and came back up the road and pulled into the bus stop. It was my neighbours lad (he had the magnum tash) and he asked if i needed a lift, so i jumped at the chance.

Fast forward 19 years, i'm now 31, i bump into the guy with the porsche, asked if he still had the car..to my suprise he said yes. I asked if he would sell it, he said when he is ready to sell it, he would left me know.

2 Years later i get the call...and ere is my first porsche i have ever been in and the one that made me a porsche fanatic. I have owned it for the last 4 years and love it!!!

Let me know what you think...
