I everyone, just to introduce myself. Rejoined the club after a few years away. Looking forward to meeting everyone at the National Event. Picture of Helga my 993 Targa below. Regards, Saxman

That's nice, pretty rare to see a Targa. See you at Hatton

Thanks everyone.

Anyone know if dogs are allowed at Hatton?

They are, on a short lead.

I think I might recognise that car!

How's she running, Steve?

Hi Craig. Great to hear from you.

Helga is just fine although she has cost me a few pennies of late. The Targa roof suddenly went ping and all the tracks and runners to the blind flew out into the car! The bill for that (and big thumbs up to Peter Tognola at Datchet) stung a bit. Aside from that, routine servicing and some new shocks (crikey - they are not cheap either) all is very well indeed although for my sins I have still not got those scratches that I put in the front spolier the week I got her from you sorted. Doh!

Hoping to be up at Hatton. Will I see you there? I imagine you will be the celebrity guest won't you - signing autorgraphs and all that after your 911W billing :laughing6:

Best,

S

Whoa, a few big bills there. I'll ask my paint man what he'd charge to do the PU for you. Hopefully not too much. Did the shockers make much difference?

I'll be at Hatton. I won't be signing autographs - I'll just keep walking in a straight line and not catch anyone's eye!

See you there!

Yup.... made the eyes water a bit and the wallet a bin thinner! Have been away a fair bit on business last few months so haven't managed more that 200 miles since last summer (!) - and that was up and down to Datchet. Must try and put a few extra in this year - Hatton should help.

Look forward to seeing you

I hope so, I'm bringing the missus, I'll get a lead for her.
(IF ANYONE TELLS HER THIS, I'LL SCWEAM!!!)

Lovely motor, look forward to seeing it in the flesh.

Woh! Gutsy call in the wife department!

Thanks - although as I mentioned to Craig, the week after I bought it from him I managed to drive it into some old bathroom tiles in the corner of the garage. Put 3 horrible scratches in the front spoiler which I keep promising to get sorted. Trouble is I budget for it and then something else goes wrong ... like the bloomin' Targa roof blind assembly exploding on me last last year! So it looks good from ever angle except low down on the near side front!

Ah the joy of owning Porsche!

See you at the show

Such a lovely looking car Saxman!

I just hope I can find such a good example!
