Here's a couple of pictures of my wife's 964 Targa that we have up for sale







Will be sad to see it go but with our new dog we don't think we will be using it that much as our weekends are being spent walking him rather than enjoying the car. I know some people will say get rid of the dog but he has become part of the family. I suppose it makes a difference from "new baby" forces sale.

Some more pictures on the Pistonheads ad:

Certainly was, a big end bearing had failed - for no good reason anyone can suggest as it's a low mileage car. Its currently with Russell Lewis enjoying a rebuild.

Expensive indeed but as one of many that's had a full rebuild on theirs, I can say that a re-freshed engine is a joy to use on these cars. smile

Here's my C2 Coupe.

KW suspension, decat and g-pipe, tweaked ECU. Goes and sounds pretty darn well i think.



Currently tucked up for the bad weather but trying to decide whether to sell it or keep it for another year.

It is actually quite shiny.



Current jobs are painting the headlight surrounds and my new RS ducts.

Apart from a fuel pump which i replaced last year, it's been pretty much faultless. A very solid car indeed.

Olber, are they headlight rings in the pics or just the headlights without the rings? I ask because the headlight casings are black and I can't tell from the pics if you have the ring covers on them.

Covers are on but painted black. I liked the race car look but think i'll go back to body coloured for now.

Cheers, putting them back to colour coded will look good IMO.

BTW, now that you've mentioned the possibility of selling be prepared for folks to PM you, such is the demand C2 coupes at the moment!

I thought that was the point of this thread wink

Have enjoyed my year with it but it might well be time to move onto pastures new. As they go though, it's been quite the 911 intro.

Mine the year I got it (2008). I didn't do the whole season but had to go to Spa smile

I got my first ever outright win there, in dreadful rain.

The flags above the podium were raised by an old bloke winding them up with a little winding wheel - it always amused to watch the F1 podium presentations to think that's how they were raised - like something out of a Monty Python sketch, or the Not The Nine O C Clock News' New Scotland Yard sign hehe



The car's had a LOT of work done since I sold it 3 years ago, but has been hardly used (due to a health issue) and is currently up for sale. Now road legal, with a fresh engine, it's the perfect weapon for track days or Euro-hooning.

Sounds good - have any of them actually been in touch with the owner/seller? He tells me he's just a had a few timewasters and I'm not sure if any of them viewed & drove the car.

Only heard from them yesterday (asking me what I knew about it), so don't think they have been in contact yet. If it doesn't sell by March, it might be a good idea for him to show it off on the RS day. smile

I'll mention it - I'm booked all morning but could demonstrate it on track to potential buyers in the afternoon.

That would probably do the trick ;-)
