Post subject: | Hello from Bedfordshire | ||
Here is Rog, my 1986 944 8v Lux in Zermatt silver. Never owned a Porsche before but have a few other cars and always fancied one so there you go! I'm slowly going through it replacing worn out components but with the interior and exterior in pretty good shape, I'm concentrating on the engine as there is a puff of smoke under 'heavy' acceleration and a really lumpy idle so a good service is in order. I'm not sure the fog lights are original but as they don't work yet (suspected switches), I'm not too worried. One curious thing that happens at really random times (usually whilst on a dual carriageway or in town!) is that the boot opens up - I'm guessing this is down to the release latches but difficult to troubleshoot. Is this common? Cheers!

Yes, MK. From where you are, I would guess that the closest meet for you may be South Central group which meets near Buckingham Lee the membership secretary will let you know if you join up |
