..... me.

Finally managed to pick up the 968 I bought from Hartech 2-3 weeks ago and enjoyed a great blast up the road from Bolton to Edinburgh.

I really enjoy the handling and feel of the car - it seems much more refined than my '88 Turbo S (and my old s2 from '92) even though there's not that many years between them them all. Hoping to get a few track days this year too.

Nice car, I have just got my first 968 a few weeks ago, up in Edinburgh a lot too as we are developing there, organising a track day at Knockhill soon....
 
I was amazed at how different they feel to the 944, even though your brain is saying that it should be the same as the interior is the same!

And then you can't find which switch does the rear wiper because they have swapped them all around....
 
That's an easy fix though Jeremy, you can have them in any order you want (even ones that aren't supposed to be there):
