Hi all,
I'm new on here. I'm reading everything I can , getting info in advance of buying a 911.
I'm looking for a RHD 911 pre '72. Classic look or sporty modified.
I'm also into Mk1 Mk2 Escorts and rallying

Re: New bloke
So I'm looking everywhere trying to get a knowledge of the specs and prices of early 911's.
The prices do seem to be all over the place. Big increases in prices from specialist sales companies. Better pricing privately.
Are good RHD cars more expensive than LHD. Should I stick to the classic look cars or be tempted by RS clones (did I get that right?)
An RS type car would have to have the performance to go with the appearance. Is a 2.7 engined car valued more than a 3.2 ?
Or should I get a 993 C2 manual that I could use all year ?
All these questions and more. It's a real problem making up my mind... but that's 'cos I'm a bloke and we're allowed to keep changing our mind over what cars we 'need'.
And I've run out of room in my garage. The wifes freezer is going for a start.

Re: New bloke
Hi welcome to DDK, where abouts in the country are you based ? best way to learn more is to get talking to owners here on the forum and also at any meets or events. we are always happy to talk about our cars
