From 911 to Testarossa and back to 944s2

Howdy,
Tho new to this forum i started out 10 years ago with a 911 Carrera for 3 years then graduated to a Ferrari Testarossa for 7 years till the mortgage caught up with me and it had to go. Now i own a cracking litttle 944s2 in white with 65,000 miles on the clock. A shame i got it just at the end of the good weather so have'nt had a lot of road time as i've already changed the cam tensioner pads, powder coated the cam cover and fitted a K & N air filter What a pullava that is :bounce:

Will carry out further tarting thro the winter months as i like to keep my motors tip top.
Cheers Si

Welcome to the forum and very nice S2 there in retro 80's white

bit different from the Tessa though. Im sure the 944 will reward just as much in it's performance so go enjoy

Welcome m8. Looks a nice clean example of a white S2 you have there...

Hello an welcome, S2 looks good and engine bay is nice and clean too, how did you get on with the Testarossa? A friend of mine had one about 7 or 8 years ago but sold it as every time he left it he came back to a crowd, and unfortunately it had an immobiliser which didn't always disarm, so it could be a bit embarrassing. I never drove it, but had a couple of passenger rides and it sounded great on full chat :mrgreen:

Yea it's a great drive and so fast.

I had wanted a 993 and had a test drive but wasn't prepared to pay the artificially inflated price they were asking for a high mile car and it was so uncomfortable to drive with no adjustment of the steering wheel. The 997 is worlds apart though doesn't have such a good looking engine bay, still I'm well happy with this one and it's only done 18k miles. :bounce:
