I've been at my mates house a good few times, a few times people have mentioned the cars he has in his garage. They belong to his dad, and any time I was out his dad wasn't there, so he didn't have the keys.

Yesterday I was over and his dad came home and gave him the keys.. Went out to his Garage/Barn (now I didn't really know what the 'cars' he had were.. Just that he had two locked up) and he had two cars.. A Porsche 911 (930 turbo) and an Audi Quattro, both of them White, and both of them spotless!

They were both sorned, and didn't have an MOT, but he took them out into his yard, and the sound of that 930 is AMAZING!

I have a few pics on my phone which I'll upload when I get home, I'm getting a DSLR next week.. So I'm gonna see if we cam clean them and photoshoot them..

I guess I'm just a bit surprised/jealous/impressed that he has two quality cars sitting as garage queens!

This sounds a little like the start of a Matthew Broderick film.

OP, are you a bit of a scallywag? A bit of a trickster?

Ha, I dont know what you're getting at...


Here's two pics of the Porsche.. I dont have any of the quattro, but when I get the DSLR i'll get some better pics.. I have a video too, but I dont want to show the numberplate.

Nice Porker that. Classics always look so good. Deserves to be driven though.

If not driven regularly that 930 will seize up, everything will rot & perish and then it'll be worth nothing.

For just the cost of air fare to Ireland and a very reasonable fee I will happily take time from my busy schedule to ensure this doesn't happen.

Think of paying me to cane his cars as protecting his investment..

It's nice when you come across some nice cars unexpectedly. Went to a bloke's house the other day with my boyfriend, the guy opened up his garages and there was a cream GT-R, a black 997 Turbo Cab, some kind of Bentley convertible, a brand new RRS , a Corsa VXR and a new Disco. All absolutely spotless.

Dribbled just a little bit smile

I get amazon vouchers from work on the 16th, so I'll order it as soon as I get those. Hopefully have it the start of next week.

I'll get it out and take pics of the quattro too as soon as I can!
