Hi All,

Recently joined as I've got myself a 924 n/a 2.0l (the car that saved Porsche!)

It's in the most excellent colour with the best interior :)

Getting used to the car and working my way through a number of jobs to bring it up to spec, but focussing on getting the driving experience as good as I can get it. I've already fixed a number of electrical problems and replaced the rear shocks. Next up is new injector seals, timing/fuel tuning, front suspension refresh, new tyres (current ones are from 2005!) and alignment.

Couple of pics attached.

Mark

Thanks! I'm really taken with it.

Not mega fast but great fun and once I've worked through my job sheet I think it will be even better. At the moment I've got wheel wobble and a pulling to the left - but with new tyres and front suspension refresh I think it will drive much better.

Hi Mark,

She looks lovely, especially the interior which is so period.

I like cars to look standard and it looks like you have a good one there.

Hi Mark

Get yourself along to a SELNK meeting just outside of Maidstone, you will get a lot of 924 advice and hopefully have some fun as well.

Hopefully see you soon :P
