Heres my pride and joy. I've had the 944 for 3 years and have just brought the 1980 911SC Elliot

It just screams 80's not sure about the Saluki. I was too engrossed with mine as i had only had her 3 days before the Bourne Classic car show. cheers |

It looks really good, now you have a foot in both camps. How do you think they compare? |

Sean The 944 is an instant and steady, fast yet constant drive that i use three days a week for communiting without any problems (except a cracked distributor cap about a year ago). The 911 needs cuddling into life, warming up and then steadily driving for 10 miles before she can be dropped a gear and then thraped with that unmistakeable noise from the rear that makes me smile every time i drive her. The driving style is totally different with the 944 being able to drive and change gear through a corner with no risk of slipping but with the 911 you get that sense if you did this you would eventually get caught out, so its a get your speed, select your gear and steer through the corner, then when straight accellerate. What do you think about the differences. I did purposely buy similar colours. The 944 is nautic metallic and the 911 is pacific blue. cheers Elliot |

They both look awesome Elliot, is the 911 totally original or has it had a few cosmetic touch ups? Cheers Rich |

Rich The interior is original. It has had two new front wings. The engine has yet to have a rebuild - planned for this winter. If you know anybody for the job please let me know. Me and the mistress (WAR) will be at stamford classic car show on sunday-is anybody going. Elliot |
