Was watching some vids tonight that my friend Rich (Ruxpin) made at Brunters.... does anyone know the story / owner of the dark blue 993TT with the cross-wire style wheels? I spoke to the driver (a distinguished looking gent wearing Lagerfield sun glasses) and he said it was non-standard.

I went up against it in the chim and it roared away making the most obscene noise, they must have been custom exhausts.

Watching the vids brought it all back, it was a most excellent day.

The most harrowing experience of the day was being porked by Daz truly awesome

Thanks

Martyn.

WTF!

I think the story on the blue 993tt is 430bhp with engine work by Ruf.

A very distinguished looking chap indead and also a very nice one. Had a chat with him.

the 993 looked fantastic in that colour and it sounded mad when he gave it the berries. more like a spitfire than a car

My memory may be going, but I thought it was a narrow bodied C4 that had been Ruf-fed up.

Fantastic car...discrete until you open it up..


If anyone is looking for a less discrete 993TT with full RUF treatment and real GT2 bodykit,let me know and I will put you in touch with the seller.

Great guy, Phil I think his name was. Took me out for one of only a few passenger runs during the day.

Not as in yer face as DeRs but true to form. "Only" geared to 180 but would sit bouncing off the rev limiter all day long. Lovely car.

Yep, he is called Phil, he's had it for about 4 years, it is indeed a ruf original afaik. As clubsport said its a standard bodies C4 with ruf stuff & is turbocharged.

A jolly nice chap too!
