That looks stunning.

I've tried driving with the roof our on mine, I found there was far too much buffeting, any tips or do you just put up with it?

Also... just noticed the reg, very close to mine (tatty one)... was it originally from Maltin in Henley?
I find if you play with the flap/deflector you can get it to be quite quiet, the helmet obviously gets rid of a lot of noise lol

Yeah it was originally from henley! Pulled the sticker off last week haha.

Between yours and Peters pictured above, that may be all of the Maritime Blue S2 coupes that exist. I believe that there were only three or four RHD S2 coupes imported (pre-internet knowledge) and I dismantled one in the 1990s, leaving two, or possibly three...

Pre-internet hearsay, as virtually everything was then. I have been interested in a few forum Porsche colours topics, tyring to establish whether there are two or three S2s appearing.

There are MB cabriolets of course (both S2 and Turbo) and I dont know how many of those there are.

Here's my 83 944 at Castle Hill car show in Devon. It wasn't particularly clean as I'd driven it back from Oxford the night before. Excuse the white bumper, it's a temporary measure after somebody kindly reversed into it.


Demonstrating just how practical these cars are at the Silverstone campsite for the Britcar24


And my 88 944S how it looked when I got it


How it looks now


And awaiting the insertion of this


Because some kind soul left a latex glove in the sump which caused this

Thanks, been really pleased with the Cayenne it does so many things really well and for the sometimes 3 hour commute into London it's hard to beat.

Turbo and Turbo S models are so well equipped with similar MPG to the S model it seemed an easy choice for me personally, took a while to find as really wanted the sport aero pack and privacy glass.

Sport aero pack looks really good. Yours looks minted and they look so cool slowly or at pace.
