That's a gorgeous looking car - I love white 911s, especially if they have the Carrera script down the side which I'd definately add if it were mine.

You had some guts buying it without seeing it first. I once bought a car without seeing it first - via ebay actually - and that worked out fine.

It wos a gamble but the chap wos willing to hold the car for a week without a deposit so i could of just turned away ! BUT as it turned out when he wheeled it out of the garage it took all my nerve to not get over excited because it wos SO much better than he discribed and the drive home wos one i will never forget, I woz like a big kid playing nervous for the first time ! Plus when i got there to pick it up he'd kindly put 6 months on it ! He wos such a nice bloke i didn't even have the heart to knock him down as i really don't think he knew wot a car he wos letting go for such a reasonable price. The Auto Gods were giving me a GOOD day ! On the oil presure thing . . . . just removed the wires cleaned the terminals and now everything is back to normal ! Thanks for the advice on an easy fix ! PS Just thought i would add a pick of my 87 targa and a couple of picks of my 88 !

7s & 9s would be the nuts but 1, theree becoming rare and 2, when they do pop up theree a fortune ! Would really like to lower the car an 25-30mm but after reading a few threads there is more to it then just lowering ! Plus the car drives so well ime just a tad worried it will upset the feel ! OH WOT TO DO ?

Welcome aboard! And nice stable of cars there - all you need is a cab to round out the set! Thinking about driving a 911 with the steering wheel and shifter and pedals reversed would throw me - I had a hard enough time with an automatic in England!

Have fun!
