Just to introduce myself, new to The Club, new to Porsche but not particularly new to the World! Car nut top-to-tail, bore for England on virtually any make/style/age/genre of car. So Hello from me and mine, looking forward to the whole Porsche thing (reliability, lack-of-depreciation etc etc) 996charger |

Thanks for the quick responses and warm welcome. Sorry, car is not supercharged (doh, didn't make that connection!) The Charger bit refers to my much-missed Dodge Charger (sold, not gone for nasty reasons...) Maybe I SHOULD get the 911 'charged! (Wouldn't it need 2 of them though, or is it all different under there nowadays?) This is Mrs G's computer so no Porsche-pix but will stick one on once I am back with my machine some time soon. Best wishes to all. |

Welcome to the world of TIPEC. I see our usual suspects have already asked location and need for pictures. If you could just confirm blood group I think we are done for the first week. |
