Hi Linday, Clive,

Thanks for the welcome aboard.

Have either of you been to the Nurburgring, I went down for the first time last week on an RMA track day, only to have both day snowed off :( Looks great though and intend to go again before the end of the summer.

Hi welcome to Tipec,
nice choice of cars. i had a 964 for about a year and loved it but it will feel quite dated compared to what you are used to driving.

have you driven one?

you might find a 993 is closer to what your used to. and i just happen to have a very nice one for sale :mrgreen:

Helen,

I have driven a 964, is a bit dated but fun all the same, similar in performance to the Boxster.

I like 993's as well tell me more about yours.

Helen,

Nice car, but i will decline purely on the fact that more than one speed yellow car in my collection would be pushing it a bit.

Thanks anyway Marc
