In preparation of getting ready to sell (not just yet) I took some photos of my Turbo R yesterday. Very pleased with them so thought I'd share.

Thanks 😊 🙏

It’s been a wonderful car to own. I’m sure to miss it a little but doubt I will regret.

I love the way it picks up speed and surprises modern stuff. And the comfort is second to nothing.

Had some good drives in it, one from London to Cornwall and back in one day to see the turning on of the Christmas lights in Mousehole last year amongst them. Four of us and the dog got back shortly after midnight, none of us complaining of stiff backs or numb bums.

Sorry everyone, I forgot this thread was here and didn't check on it (911Thrasher, I now understand what you were talking about!).

Car is sold. The difference on the price was down to me not getting around to sorting a few small issues I was going to rectify in order to make as close to perfect as I could. Was a joy to own, and it has gone to a new home with someone far more worthy of owning it than me.

Caterham also gone, won't miss that if I'm honest as my back and knee reminded me I'd been driving it days afterwards.

Porsche will be going, but not just yet as I've got a few things to sort out, and some trips I want to do in it. I hope I don't regret selling it. The problem will come when I buy another air cooled car as it is unlikely to be anywhere near as well sorted – I can't see me commissioning another £20k+ 3.8 engine build.

And there is of course an exciting project in the pipeline, however I can't write about it yet. I don't want to curse it! smile
