Nice one!!!

I myself am a new owner, a few weeks ago! Although mine is only a 89 2.7 and one needing work at that! Be sure to spoil us with photos once you get it!

Nice, is that the one from South Wales?

 

[53berliner]

It is. Really pleased to have got this one

It's lovely, I've seen the car at my local independent specialist. The owner is fanatical (in a good way ) about the car, no expense spared, I think it also had a brand new engine at 30K thousand miles. Think you will enjoy that one.

Hi Matt, hope you enjoy your new car when you get it.

Thanks Mark. I'm really excited to see it.
You know ive never really looked at these before as ive always been into the aicooled models and in particular 356's. Since ive been doing some research ive really taken to them. I just love that front end view as i posted and i think most cars with pop up headlights can look a little odd but these look just right. I'm really pleased to have got this car no other would have satisfied me. The colour the model the detail, everything.[]

Great car, congratulations.

Not sure the chandelier on the bonnet is original fitment though.

Another good point about these cars is that they have rear seat belts where my other classics dont so kids can get in the back... well until they are bigger. They will love it.

I had a short trip in the back of a 944 once at le Mans..never again...having said that I've driven from London to Cornwall and back (at speed) with 3 adult passengers, they seemed to manage ok, I do recall going out clubbing with a friend one night and meeting 3 girls at said club. Needless to say, it would have been rude not to take all of them home after, some fun driving down dark country roads with my friend sitting on the rear centre hump between two girls, I had to open the roof to fit him in...fun times...
