It is a 3.0 and what a brilliant engine it is to.

I thought it would be a nice touch adding a pic of the model on the bonnet of the car got loads of Porsche models now, surprising how quick they mount up.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

Very nice, mate! I wish I'd got one of these when they were affordable - prices seem to be on the rise now.

Thanks everyone.

Had it for a year now got the model at the same time and love every second of it. Bought it for £4K had a bit a of rust in the cills but nothing major really. I too have noticed that they seem to be on the uprise price wise glad I got it when I did now.

yep last off the line, its an April 1992.

we bought it back in 2000 for £11000. was one of the cleanest around then. since then it has rarely been used due to lack of time so only used on nice days on a spin or porsche trip and we have only done 12000 miles in it!

totally stock too save the Cup wheels..thinking of an exhaust tho biggrin

yep part of PCGB smile

Mine has done 218,000, 5,000 of which I have done since I bought it. it was the best condition one I could find at the time and despite the mileage runs really nicely.

Fitting my Hayward & Scott exhaust in 2 weeks time with decat and 3.5 inch oval tail pipe looks good just in the box, can't wait to get it fitted after hearing some others with the same exhaust.

Couldn't just leave it at that, so I've been out there with a torch looks like the paint is still alright just a dent about the size and shape of the front of some chav's hoof. I have already got my suspicions who it is my neighbour who has a chav son and hasn't liked me ever since I got the Porsche. Had a problem with them when I 1st got it where the chav and his chav mates used to do wheel spins on the gravely part in front of my drive had a go at them for it and they stopped then, which surprised me, they gave me a load of lip but stopped. There seems to be an increasing number of chavs and their parents moving into places around where I live. Who automatically seem to want to hate me for the car I drive. I've been told the reason the parents hate me is because I'm the same age as their children or thereabouts and have a better car than some of them and don't have a Peugeot 106 or scooter like their children seems to mode of transport of choice for chavs around here.
