FURTHER PHOTOS ADDED


Hi All,

I have just joined TIPEC, after proudly purchasing a 1985 Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera Cabriolet last week. Its silver with a bright red "can-can" leather - featured in this month's 911 & Porsche World magazine, in the Tried and Tested section.

Car is in very good condition, not a perfect show car, but good for the age. Believe I am the third owner, with good mileage for its age. Look forward to polishing, tweaking and driving her over the summer!

Also have a 1999 Porsche Boxster, had for some time. Certainly not as interesting as the 911, but a very different car and I love it all the same.

Look forward to meeting many of you at future events, getting your advice and tips, and enjoying my Porsche ownership!

All the best
Mat

Funny that, with it being an 80's car :D

I live on the border of Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire. Which region does that fall under?

Just checked your postcode and you live between the two regions.

South Central who meet at Whittlebury Hotel NN12 8QH on the 4th Monday of every month

North London/Herts who meet at the Three Horseshoes SG14 3RY on the 3rd Thursday of every month.
