more chance of owning a 911 if you live in guildford (uk)

well, its official, more 911's are owned by the residents of guildford than in any other area in the uk. "honey, call the agents were moving......"

mind you, thinking about it you wouldn't want to - they'd be too common.

i know someone on this board lives there.....

it is still listed in autotrader and 911uk, but i have not had a single response!! seems these things take a while to shift! or my advert is too honest!

HAH!!!! I knew it .

Funny enough, I have this one friend who I was speaking to and mentioned the fact that every single day I see 4 or 5 911's while travelling, being quite a snooty person that he is, he promptly informed me that Marlow has the highest Porsche count per head than any other place in England. Guess where he lives then..

Now that its official, I have more ammo

Having just said all this, I don't often see any older 911's, mostly 993 and 996's.

"...mind you, thinking about it you wouldn't want to - they'd be too common...." LOL We won't just let any old riff-raff in you know......

Dickster, could you not just take the existing locks to a locksmith and have him change the tumblers/blade thingies and give you a new set of keys?

This waiting around would seriously burn my a$$....

Cheers Jakes

ps. Dickster, are you going to the Autojumble? I know Tim is, and I am planning to, there are a few others.

jakes,

i have a feeling that people who are not in "the know" call them all 911's (know what i mean)!! i probably would have done before i frequented this sleazy board

nice try on the locks, but its the ins co that are insisting.......

i can't make the autojumble as i'm at a policemans ball that weekend. all for charity of course!

come on england!!!

Policemans ball, what sort of excuse is that!!!!

You can still make the autojumble, we're starting early, probably be on our way home by lunch time at the latest. Then, Cinders you can go to the ball!

Cheers

I read that article in Metro today too......
I must admit that the majority are regular 996s and Boxsters - not much air-cooled hardware around town.

England v Turkey should be a cracker tonight !!!

Bones,

Look for my recent post on Husbourne Crawley, we're meeting up on the M1 J8 (I think).

Cheers

Hi Dickster,

Last time I saw your signature you were looking for a Turbo

There is one in Kent on Findit

I'm going so the autojumble, but in my humble BMW. Looking for loads of bits so I need the space. Not that I've got a Porsche on wheels!
