A big thank you to Tom for selling me his well kept lovely 944 turbo. What a nice bloke and an even nicer car. On driving her home once I got used to her and on the roads I new well, well lets just say you couldn't take that smile of my face. Now for lot's of hard work to put my own little touch on her. I'll try to keep you all posted with pics and jobs to do. Once again thank you tom. Gary

It’s a lovely, lovely car. You’ll have a great time driving it. Any plans to take it out on racetracks, since Tom used to?
