My daughter (3 in Dec) has developed a preference to being in the back of my 928. Bought a Porche Prince car seat for my 944 Turbo but no matter if I put it in the front or the back, she is happier with the same seat in if the back of the 928.

Now she cries if I put her in the Turbo as she wants to ride in the Purple car.....

It’s going back a while now cos my daughter Gem is 20 in a few weeks but years ago she used to complain if I picked her up from school in the Porsche!! How many kids would rather be picked up in the family hack (3-series Touring) rather than a Porsche? I guess there was more room in the estate car and she didn’t have me banging on about being careful as she got in etc….

Back when I was an RO I organised a WOTY which lots of people took their chilren too.
Too keep them amused I gave each kid a notebook and pencil and we swapped them to a different Porsche at every stop.
I got them to write down their views on each model from a childs perspective.

We then compared notes. Our then secretaries 928 S4 sport came out best because it had most room in the back and because the seats were cloth they didn't stick to the girls legs...

Are you still in touch with the then secretary? Does he still have the 928 and if so has he polished it yet? If not it will be pink I would think! Its been a lot of years but I can see him now, polishing the leaves on a 'plant' for the NEC show!!

I see him rarely. Agreed to buy his car but he changed his mind; It has not run for 2 years and it is well pink. He normally drives a Mercedes coupe these days.

'three two'???
Do you have a 924 Turbo?
