Only my Zed has garage space here.Number5 said:buzyg said:Your going to need a bigger garage Alan.
Yes, That would be nice but unfortunately I'm paying storage fees for one of them at the moment, which is why one has to go.
Plus, is any garage ever big enough ? I'd always want one more than I could fit in
We still have our sons Mx5 parked on the drive, along side my daily shed and MrsGs Mx5. He was due to be back here for a month from next week. Obviously not happening, so who knows when that will get shifted. 
This is my daily drive.
This car amazes me everyday. I have never owned a car that can provide such a perfect balance of economy, performance and driving experience.
I put 600 miles on her every week, it doesn’t even use a full tank of fuel in doing so, and has only ever required servicing, tyres and brakes in my ownership.
A great work horse, and I would quiet happily buy another one when I am done with her.

It is indeed the Sally B
I was tempted to get a 996 or 997 as my only car then horror stories put me off, So I got the Zed Coupe for weekends and trips etc. Kept the GTD for my 500m a week return commute. Its a nice easy place to be in traffic, blasting up the M5 or A303. Might change it for a 330d Touring if I see a good one. 
P.S The T shirt was a secret Santa present from work. I'm a "Guzz" Rating (Plymouth resedent) through and through, but have served in pompy a few times.

My boss did a full, very expensive, restoration of a tr6 a few years back. He ended up being invited for a track day where his car was hooked up with a dozen mics and the sound recorded for a car that featured in Grand Theft Auto 5

Wow that's a thing of beauty. By the looks of it it has undergone a nuts and bolt restauration?
Though in one of the pictures I see that it hasn't lost its english character :lol:

I almost went down the route of retro-modding a 240z. Really like the shape and its why I'm now looking for a Z4C.Darren Slone said:I don’t use the MC that often as I have an X3 as a company car but my favourite is my ‘71 Datsun 240Z that I imported from West Coast USA a few years ago, I had one when I was 18 until 30, coincidentally sold for £40K a couple of years ago after I sold it for £6750 for my 911, so always anchored after another, it’s the only car I’ve ever had that my son, now 21, takes pics of
to me it’s a piece of art 8)

That would have been an interesting project for sure, mines standard except for the fact I’ve put a set of triple 40’s on it and some Rota wheels, still have the originals with restored hub caps, best of luck with your Coupe search

I was looking for an older car with some work needed mechanical wise, as I would be stripping all the suspension and engine out for modern units.
They go for solid money once done, but I'd be doing it for keeps

Thankyou, it’s a good one and not one for modding as much a I do like the modded ones, it was a one owner until 2011 and only ever have the drivers side dog leg replaced, that’s the only place it’s been welded, it’s a keeper for me, I hope you get one modded
I just got a 2015 Toyota Tacoma last month. I have been busy adding auto accessories to enhance its looks and performance. Right now, I am trying to figure out which off-road wheels are suitable for this truck.
