Now that's more like it. A decent looking Porker that you can fit in even a modest garage. Wonder what it weights.

My dads mate has two classics.
The SC Turbo has less than 1k miles on it, the targa around 6k miles
I’ll see if I can dig out a picture

I remember back in the late 80’s buying our first house and the neighbour had one – blue too but lighter shade if I remember correctly. When he set off for work it acted as an alarm clock for us. I was green with envy comparing it with the TR7 up my drive
