Hi all, just posting as I have recently bought a 1990 C2 targa and thought I should sign up and hopefully make use of this great forum.
I bought the car from Edinburgh 2 weeks ago, drove it back to Essex, 400m isn't bad for a test drive!
Car is pretty good but with a couple of very tiny rust bubbles, one on the front & other on the rear window just above the rubber seal, although it presents well.
It's done 126k, has beloved speed line wheels & linen interior in quite good condition.
I can't believe how tight it feels, I can smell some oil & im aware it needs a service as it was last done 2013 with 10k since so I'd appreciate anyone's help with a recommended specialist in Essex.
Looking forward to the ownership experience.
George.

Welcome to the forum George, and congrats on a lovely car and having the ability to post pics without needing to ask for help, you have past the first test of Porsche ownership. :grin: :grin: took me two weeks to suss out how to post pics. :floor:
 
Looks very nice, congrats :thumb:
 
Hi and welcome. Nice car and quite unique.
Service in Essex if it's London side of Essex the HP Motorsport in Hainault.
Otherwise autostrasse in Colchester.
 
Great thanks. I'm based in Chelmsford so not too far from me. I'll look into both of these. Initially I need a service & todort the oil leak. Nice to know there's a community to help. Thanks.
 
Welcome aboard George. That was indeed a good test drive :thumb:
Enjoy the car!
 
Autostrasse (Coggeshall near Colchester) or DSD Motorwerks (Billericay or Great Dunmow).

Interestingly I hear that Design 911 have opened a centre in Brentwood.

And most of all :welcome:
 
Thanks Rob.
Funny about DSD Motorwerks, I emailed & left messages but with no response, which is a shame considering they are the most local. I'll keep trying though.
 
:welcome: lovely car George , enjoy ..
 
Hi George,

It looks like a winner, welcome :thumb:

Good luck,
Paul
