Interior
of my car. Midnight Blue and Classic Grey is a great
combination
(IMHO). Walnut dash etc is a more controvertial fitment, popular in Saudi
Arabia where my car was first delivered. Overall I'd prefer it without
but the rest of the car was too good to pass up. |

Having
Fun at Le Mans
|
|
| My
friends and I at Le Mans 2001. Our camp surrounded by my car, Gordon Lees'
3.2 Carrera and Dave Fisher's '77 3.0 Carrera. Did we get wet? Has Pinocchio
got a wooden dick? |
We
wore Hawaiian shirts during the post race track invasion (here we are in
the pits) so that we could spot ourselves on TV. It didn't work! |
Bravery
Fun

A

the UK. I soooo want this car.
Wiring
Woes
"95 Model year 993's
have been known to experience problems where the engine wiring
harness insulation
breaks down, leading to short circuits and eventually burn out!"
Thanks to EJ for
sharing his finding, you can find more information about the engine harness
issue under EJ's web site
