968 Books

[Andy HC]

Hi
I've recently taken the plunge and got myself a second car - a Black 1994 968 Sport.

So far I loved every second - especially the trip to Le Mans in the first week of ownership, leading a convoy of Honda Type-R's and an NSX (and having to slow down for them!) We'll see how long that smile lasts however as its going to be serviced on Monday and who knows what horrors may emerge...

What I wanted to ask was; can anyone recommend me a book on 968's, with particular reference to Club Sports and Sports? I worked on the launch of these models in 1993, but that was a while ago and I'd like to swot up again, especially to shut up those ill-informed front-engine Porker jibes.
Thanks
