My dad had the 911 at the Porsche Club Annual Concours at Scone Palace today where he was awarded first prize out of 50-60 cars and given 200 points out of 200, so a perfect score. Almost unheard of in concours.

Just thought that was pretty cool

Excellent car! Nice one! Is love a 993 turbo one day.
My dad used to have a 993 c2, sold it for a 997.1 gt3, the gt3 is a hugely better car but it's no 993!

1998. It's a rare factory X50 with 450bhp.
Only 11 in that spec in the country.

When it's not being used it does stay in the garage, and its only ever out on nice days so I guess it is a bit of a garage queen.
It's still seen the wrong side of 180 (on private road) though, so not wrapped in cotton wool and pussied about with. Just very well looked after.

I actually don't have any interior pics, and there's not much to see in the engine bay, basically just an intercooler...
Here's is a picture pre-detail.

Nope, not as far as i'm aware. This one certainly hasn't had any problems.
