Well I've done it now, there is no going back. I just bought 1991 928 S4. :D Blue with cream leather interior. It is coming fro Horsham on a trailer next week, but I'm on holiday so I'll not see her. It has been maintained @ Addspeed in Horsham for the last 9 years. Im in @ the deepend here. Pictures and more information to follow.

P.S. Don't tell the wife. :lol:

I'm as worried about her as I am excited about the car coming. The car is big enouhg to live in, so I might try that. :lol:

Thank's Brett, I'm sure there will be loads of questions. How do I open the bonnet? :lol:

I have to buy Mrs Parry a handbag each time I do something to my car. Cost me £1000 last week, that's the handbag cost not the repair to the car :shock:

Well done on the 928 purchase I wish I could have one in addition to the 944 for the best of both worlds :D

I have been down that road, £1500 @ Loui Vitton :shock: That was about 6 or 7 years ago. She has 2. It is the excuse I use for my purchases now. The handbags are still in the wrapper with the reciept from Cessars Place in Las Vegas. So it's my turn for a while. She will get a shot in the Porsches' but I cant use her hand bags, my socket set will not fit.

I can't believe I done it. I've always wanted one. Right time, right place and I couldn't resist. I need to cut off my internet for a while or I'm going to end up with a 968 next, Richy has put me in the mood for one. :lol:

Firstly congrats on the 928 purchase!
Secondly all this talk of four figure handbags is making me sweat! Mine has lots of handbags but most are sub £100 luckily.

Orla Kiely had a clearance sale few weeks ago so stocked up for a while and just don't mention Ebay :evil: . Jim I just work the outlay into my yearly budget for servicing the car :lol:

Enjoy the new ride

Thanks Jim.

I got off lightly the other week and it only cost me £50 on my daughter, just so she wouldn't tell the wife about a purchase. :lol: Nearly doubled the price of my ratchet spanners. :lol:

I've been told that the car has been delivered :D but I'm still on holiday :( I should have pictures on Saturday when I get back, as long as my son hasn't taken it for a spin and put it in a ditch. :bounce:

Hi and welcome.

On the handbag front, my wife's a cheapy!! I just take her to a very well known high street merchandiser and tell her she can have any one she wants. After all, most are sub-£10 in Primarni. She goes away happy, :lol:

Enjoy the ride
