love those alloys whether they are genuine 19" Fuch or replicas its absolutely the perfect choice for a white 911 :thumb: also I like the lower door decals nice.
I have £10 bet that within 6 months it will be lowered and spacers have ducktail and poss a carrera classic front lip extention :grin: :grin: :thumb:

Was at our local OPC today and was talking to one of the salesman who I know quite well. Out side they had an 08 Gen 1 Turbo in Cobalt Blue manual and about 36k miles, selling for £68k!
Asked him about it and apparently its been chipped up, don't know what to, has no over revs and has had the PCM upgraded. It's a really nice car but is top money. Asked him why it was marked up at that price and he told me that a lot of the S/H stock has gone up in the last month, he reckoned a 991 targa had risen £4k.
So will be interesting to see what prices are going to be by April/May which is peak buying time.

New Turbos (stock from Porsche) as mine were massively corroded and the actuator was sticking plus while it's in i went for the equal length headers as above and the DO88 Big Pack Intercoolers, Larger Y-Pipe (will be selling my current IPD Y Pipe), inlet hoses etc... It'll then need a fresh remap from ESMotor taking it up to the Full Bolt on ES700 package

A speedy recovery fella I hope all get back to normal very soon.

I certainly know what its like to break lots of things and oh it makes you achy in the cold and damp.

But that can be the price for doing stuff :roll:
