Not another Crimp!
Discussion
Well as some of you on here know i am in the mist of separation after 14 yrs albeit 8 months fkin marriage (all snakes with tits) with the inevitable legal fees on the horizon i have had to downgrade slightly in terms of value, sold the GT3 pending inspection to a fellow enthusiast of the marque and was wondering what next? I'd be incomplete without some Pork tooked away.
Thought about another 3.2c but decided i'd be bored of the performance and constantly polishing for fear of tin worm (which dulls the experience) been there and done that on too many occasions now as you guys all know.
964? tempting but not lots around and i'm not a 993 person sorry. Thought about a 997 C2S but milions of them around and they are silver, Cayman/Boxter? tempting........but like 4 seats.
So looking at my previous CV of Pork, a car has always stood out to me for out and out ability and value for smiles...........so yes i've decided on yet another washing machine, albeit a nicer sounding one, this will be my third!
Today i have been out in a monster 550bhp+ tiptronic 6T and i can honestly say hand on heart its the quickest 911 i have ever been in by a long way quicker than the widow maker i owned, fookin scary actually but controllable unless you're driving like you stole the thing. Not a tip man but with that sort of power it actually lends itself very well and the power delivery is awesome & smooth.
Nice colour, mint condition for year new Big Yellow GT2 calipers/discs/GT2 wheels/intercooler and full GT2 kit, all OEM parts too.
All upgrades mechanically were done by a well know tuning house so that was reassuring too.
Looks an eyeful and will be used more often.
More importantly I will be able to put a few quid away to pay for the feckin solicitors!!!!!!!!

I think the moniker "Devil's children" is more apt Ed Thought about another 3.2c but decided i'd be bored of the performance and constantly polishing for fear of tin worm (which dulls the experience) been there and done that on too many occasions now as you guys all know.

Got to hand it to you Ed, you never give up !!!
Glad you've found another "toy". Hope you bond with it and it turns out to be a keeper.

Don't be daft....

Best of luck fella.
Watch what you spend on lawyers. Unless there's a huge pot worth arguing over you may find you're better off doing it yourself. I got a perverse pleasure sending letters back to my ex Mrs' solicitors knowing that each and every one had to be reported back to her and advised upon at her great expense...
Life's too short, move on as best you can, time is a great healer and enjoy the turbo.
