Just took a part exchange on a vehicle and have to say I kinda like it, drives great and is pretty fast for what it is.

Any body like these?

It's a 1989 Porsche 911 targa 3.2.

Have to say driving it home it turned heads where ever I went, even got flashed out of a few junctions which never normally happens, must be the car.

a quick photo taken on the drive! I am toying with the idea of keeping this and selling my mk1 escort, hard decision.

It's in brilliant condition, can anyone remember playing "test drive" back in the day (I had it for my Amiga 500), it totally sounds the same and the dash is just how I remembered it from that game.

It's just the inside is very dated and no power steeringShock

Lovely Carl - you should keep that mint. It'll only go one way in value especially with the latest 911Yes

Well after doing about 100 miles in the Porsche today its definitely a keeper, it drives so nice for an old car it's mad. The power delivery is also out of this world, I have tucked her away for now but it's staying.

Think the escort will be going up for sale. anybody interested before I write an advert?
