First Porsche

[m66hol]

Am slowly working through my list of cars that i need to own before I die and the latest decision was Aston Martin V8 Vantage or Porsche 911. Ive been following this forum for some time and have found it really helpful in getting to know the cars the variants and what they are like to live with, so a big thanks to all you regular contributors, and I finally bought a gen 2 997 C2S a couple of weeks ago.

Its also worth mentioning that i got the car from RSJ Sports Cars (who have also been mentioned regularly here) who made the process really easy and prepared the car to a great standard, and have also followed up to make sure i was happy as i live some distance away from them. i really would have no hesitation in recommending them for those of you considering a purchase and are new to Porsche.

picture below please excuse my posting skills... if you click on it, should be ok. Macadamia with terracotta interior, not everyones bag but i like unusual, and it gets lots of attention. Having driven it for a couple of weeks, i now understand what all the fuss is about.

I love that colour combo, its really different and dare I say it, a little 70's inspired!

indeed i grew up in the 70s so it resonates with me. Not so long ago i had a Triumph Dolomite Sprint in Russet Brown which my 2 boys aged 19 and 17 called the t*rd. They are a bit more smitten with the Porsche though

Eh up Bro, looks the business and good to know it's endorsed by the boys! Hopefully I'll see it soon, and pair it up with the latest ( and clearly the greatest) version of the 911!
