Over 150k as it happens but less than 10k over the last 5 years, mainly trips down to Le Mans, Goodwood, etc.

I love seeing lovely cars like this with a good chunk of miles on them.

It goes against everyones preconceptions.

Heres to another 150!

Here's my 3.2, purchased in Jan 09 and not driven anywhere near as often as I'd like....

A prime example of NOT buying a post 100K aircooled 911. Look of the state its in.

+ 1 very nice indeed wouldn't buy it though with high miles (NOT)..

Thanks all for your comments. I bought on condition and maintenance history and after a PPI; I ignored the miles but the 3.2 "economy" was very different when I was looking 5-6 years ago and most new owners now seem to be looking for a garage queen as an investment.

I actually managed to get out for an hour's blast this morning and there really is nothing like the sound of a heavy breathing air cooled flat six and a sports exhaust resonating through the cockpit, just pure and raw.

Wow, that looks great, has it done many miles.

Very impressive, I genuinely thought you were going to say it is low mileage.

Mines done 109,000 and it drives like it's brand new

They really are great cars, had mine over 10 years, still a baby mileage wise, only done 49.000.

BTW, mine has done 118k. It too drives as well as it ever has, it's not the mileage on these cars that matters it's the servicing, love and attention that makes them what they are.

Here's mine, '88 3.2 Carrera Sport with 118K. I've owned it about 4 years since it had 106K on the clock and enjoyed every single (s)mile

Maybe he's finally seen the light and he's going back to air cooled;). Only joking, wish I had so much 911 experience.

Hey Crimp.

In the first pic with the red sc, is the baby really heavy, or did you go a bit nuts when you lowered it?
In all seriousness, that GT2 looks sick! I love air cooled, but that turned my head! The pick of the lot for me.

Bought this in 1999, advertised in the local autotrader for £5500, bought on first sight, as it was my first 911 i did not know much about the modal but on checking the chassis number found it to be a 2.4s, but the engine had been changed to an original 2.7rs, it had fibreglass front wings, bonnet, front bumper, rear wings, bumper and spoiler, the interior had a roll cage, it was a bugger to start as the cold start had been removed from the engine, any way here is a photo as bought and one as she looks today.
