More green loveliness.

Have you considered getting a set of period 17" Sport Classic wheels? And painted pale gold on a green 964 would be rather nice.

This photo is of the heavier 18" SC2, but you get the idea.

I'll shut up now.

Yes that looks great!
I actually have a set of BBS Lm’s with gold from a 996 GT3 but I don’t think they will fit. Also I like the sleeper look!

This is the only picture I have of my old German Import LHD 911. I part ex'd my '88 VW Scirocco 16v for it in 1990 on a complete whim.

Wasn't as easy to live with as the VW but certainly had more character.

I owned it for about two years before having to sell it due to family and business commitments. The only car I really regret selling. Always promised myself another 911 ... maybe one day.

To be fair only ever had a breakfast or coffee in one, which were both good. I just parked there to get the shot a couple of months ago when I was letting her have a bit of mid winter exercise.

Nice car by the way; sorry for the lack of appreciation. It's just that OK Diners have intrigued me. I like a good diner in the US, I just have a suspicion that OK Diners may be staffed by people called Craig, with poor personal hygiene and a similarly lacking interest in food hygiene.

The Q-ship look is good, but the car is low so you ain't foolin' anybody.

Also choice of 16" tyres is poor. The 17" Sport Classic weighs only a tiny bit more than your Design 90s (depending on which widths you have, they may be lighter!).

It's a win-win-win!

(cue small Devils sitting on both shoulders)

Ahhh go on go on go on.....

I may have posted this before.

It's a photo taken in 1990 on a road trip to France with a couple of mates. I owned the Alpine GTA. The 964 was owned by a friend. I remember that he paid £5k over list to jump the queue.

The day that he got the car he chucked me the keys. I was so impressed by that experience that 25 years later, when given the opportunity, I bought my own 964.
