They're certainly divisive. Did a story about one for GT Purely Porsche a while back, was a fun thing even if not quite my cup of char...

I think these look amazing. I'd love a slant nose Turbo over a 'regular' one.

Well that's a blast from the past! Starring none other than Frank Spencer himself Michael Crawford as the eponymous hero. I absolutely loved that film when I was a kid, bet if I watched it now it would be terrible.

I remember wanting that black slant nose very very much.

All those 911s they destroyed would probably be worth more now than the movie made hehe

Looked pretty good.
There's a 350Z slant nose too smile

I actually quite like that! If it had pop up lights instead of those massive spots.

I'm sure they were all replica's, great childhood memories of watching it though.

^^^^ hehe

That looks terrible now. Good times though, watching as a kid.
That part from 1min 25secs where they go on the pier reminds me of the Naked Gun opening credits. biggrin

Another great 80’s Porsche film was No Mans Land with Charlie Sheen. Totally cheesy now but it was one of my favourites as a 10 year old, car obsessed kid.

Anyway sorry for the derail.

Agreed, needs pop-ups.

Aye, would be nice, but then the template didn't have them.

Nice update in stories there Pete.... Most men come home having accidentally purchased another pair of shoes, or a power tool. Not one of those! hehe

Beautiful thing though.

Dude in the 935 had his tinted visor down inside the car - no wonder they all crashed.
He was hiding from Harvey Weinstein.

that looks better that a 911 flachbau - side profile of the 911 looks so wrong IMHO

I’m here more often than Instagram and with over 1000+ requests I’m not really getting the chance to accept many people. So please feel free to ask me anything on here, I’m probably more open on here than Instagram, where I usually just rip the piss out of things and stoopid YouTubers haha
An excellent past time. &#128079;&#127995;
They only have two words they can say it seems and they repeat them constantly. Like they have some kind of tick, and are on the “spectrum”.
Swipe up swipe up....oh p*** off and stop trying to force me to watch an entirely biased, boring video of the same car that every other YouTuber is also posting.

Keep up the mocking Pete. They deserve it &#128521;

Not left no, just been trying out that Netflix thing, social dilemma.
It’s good, my work Output has increased and I’m sleeping better. I’ll be back on it soon
