Gratuitous pictures of my porker

Absolutely no reason for these pictures

Absolutely no excuse either, i just cannot help myself.

My sincerest appologies but











(the odd cover thingy is to protect the electric's from the monsoon rains and the AC unit is actually off a 993)







appologies for showing off ... just cannot help myself ....

Quite simply beautiful Please do not appologise, you can never post enough pictures of your 911 John.

Glad to here you're still enjoying it, more now you're getting to know it I guess.

/me starts drooling

That is utterly gorgeous. Those wheels. And the colour. I'm well jealous.

[supersingle]

Lovely.

That's a proper car that is. No modern gizmos keeping you on the road. I bet it's fantastic to drive.

[trackdemon]

That colour, in that car park = some amazing photo opportunities!! What a great looking bit of kit!

[Marf]

Dont apologise you lucky lucky b'stard.

Bewdiful car

[DeanoM12]

Stunning Pork, tis a pleasure to see cars like that on the road...mind you, i have never actually seen one like that on the road ...but you know what i mean

[XJSJohn]

Cheers folks

very childish of me but i just could not help myself in posting them pix

It seems to be fairly unique here too, in so much as i have not seen another old "classic" aircooler (or anything pre 993 infact) on the road.

Fantastic to drive, a proper little hooligan, pops and bangs like a TVR, corners like a caterham (almost) and goes like a stabbed rat!

1 month into ownership and i am still completely like a big kid when i drive it!!!

EVERYONE should try a porker once in their life!

I wouldnt feel guilty for showing off, remember this is a forum dedicated to cars, I'm sure 99% of people on here will appreciate someones passion for an automobile, be it a Fiat or a Ferrari.

If it just so happens you own a nice Porsche, then so be it

I do love you your car John. The more pictures the better. Long may you enjoy the lovely air cooled flat sixyness!

I reckon that plate over the distributer might be a good conversion for Porker owners back in the UK, what with the current monsoon conditions at home.

I'm actually going back next week for a fortnight, after looking at the weather forecast I've been toying with knocking it on the head and roughing it by a pool somwhere else instead!

I can recomend a few affordable pools to try roughing it by out this way

Drop us a PM if you want some recomendations in Thailand / Malaysia / Singapore

Awesome That's automotive beauty that is.

Now you have me tempted!

I suppose I really should go home though, in twelve months i've spent three weeks in the UK.

I think the next time I have some holiday time I will head east, I really do need two weeks of doing nothing and taking it easy.
You know what it's like when you go back to the UK, it's a few weeks of just travelling around visiting people!
