TVR Griffith gone

Now sat on my drive is a beautifull 1987 3.2 911 Carrera Targa Supersport in grand prix white........................

Collected it from Nott's friday,4hr drive back home to Wales and I did not want to get out of it!!

What a difference from the TVR....Cannot ever see me going back to TVR ownership after this..............

Couple of little things required and have posted a wanted ad under the Porsche spares listing.

Photo of car on my profile.

Nice to be here!

Somebody pls tell me this a troll. Replacing a Griff with a 3.2 is like replacing the Mona Lisa with Bob's 3yr old scrawling on the fridge

Also interested to hear this one!

Black fuch's !?

Was this the colour they were supposed to be then guys,look quite nice in the white though! IMHO

TVR Griffith a bit too agricultural for my tastes.....Not saying its not a good car though,its all down to personal choice surely?

Black centres - not rims - see the 3.2 in my profile.
For my tastes the white centres are just a bit too .... hairdresser

You won't regent it, I didn't know what the fuss was about with Porsche cars until I owned one, thought their were boring and over priced compared to the TVR’s

How wrong I was

I'm a true Porsche convert now.

Good luck

So you've owned and run a Griff, Sagaris, Boxster and Boxster S - and you laugh at someone with a 996 Cab - huh - how does that work? Maybe it's pink?
You've not run a 911 yet - nice to see that you've got that covered now - I hope you enjoy it.
