Obsolete. Poor interior and slower around the 'Ring than a 991.

Oops, sorry, wrong thread!

I'm not a Nutella fan but I love Marmite. However, when you throw in Ms. Portman I think I could put up with a very large amount of Nutella indeed!

I like the Magnus Walker car, but he makes the sort of changes that I'd rather have done myself - they're far enough from stock that I'd want to spec them all myself (really make the car mine), but not so far that they've had so much money and time put into them that they look as well executed as stock items. Maybe I'm being unfair to Marcus's work (I haven't seen the cars up close), though, and I do love Magnus's approach to things. Reminds me of a good friend of mine at home in NZ who is doing this sort of thing to his SC.

If money was no object I'd go for a Singer with nary a second thought. They're just RIGHT and it feels like I'd never get close to that level of detail no matter how hard I tried (or who I paid to do the work). The Singer is just Natalie in a bath of Marmite.

I don't get this guy.
The whole car stinks of too much 'cool' for my tastes.

I get what you mean but if you watch his videos he talks a lot about driving too and getting them just right, even not too much power!

I've watched all his video's and I still don't get it.

I just get the feeling he's more of a marketing man than a mechanic. I mean giving certain parts a fake patina? WTF.
