How good is it to have a 911!

Hi Everyone

Just joined the forum and have been enjoying reading many great threads.

Looking forward to many great miles in my old 911S.

All original - but about to put some new SSI's and a Dansk muffler on her. Bit light on for history, but believe I am the third owner and the car which has spent most of its life in Melbourne and Hobart Tasmania.

Looks great, enjoy it . I just bought mine 2 months ago and have been saying why did I wait. I should have bought one a long time ago. You know what they say " If you drive one you will be hooked and want one".
Love IT

Nice ride.
Looks like the King was taking a break from some around the Palace fix up projects.

King Carl the XVI. How sweet it is.

Plus he has a Targa. Like me. :-)

Don't eff with a King, EVER. The dude is legit.

You could simply die in your sleep and no one would ever know why. Ricen in the achilles tendon or something.

Swedes are notorious for shat like that. Nasty dudes. Step away from King Carl. I implore you.
