MartyP Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 How does it feel power wise? Low to the ground it feels no different to a modern 911 tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted February 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Powers good, no complants so far. Best thing though is no matter whats in front of you on the motorway, it gets out of the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jowey Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) that is in bloody corkin' good nick i love the pin stripe seats need some 944 style arches Edited February 18, 2008 by Jowey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted February 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 'Overs are suprisingly easy to get (and cheap to!) Plans are nothing special, just upgrade to 16" teledials (7s and 8s) and drop. Later down the line will be brake and engine work. I'd be happy with 200bhp.Cheers Jowey. She's not perfect by any means but a very good base. If I wanted 944 arches I would of bought a 944 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris260 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Looks like quite a good one that Adam! I got offered one a while back but it was a shed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clairey Fairy Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Yeah yeah yeah nice car and all that but im more interested in what lives behind those stable doors Seriously though - very nice example is that. A guy at a place i used to work had a very odd coloured one and it was the most run down shed ive ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 (edited) There are alot of sheds about, they're at that point when they're affordable to buy but parts arn't cheap. As a result most dont really get looked after.Andi: The whole cars completely original.Claire:The stable block is one of 3 (you can see 2 of them in the pictures) theres also a school. My sister breeds horses. I dont live there, I just leave the cars Im not using there Glad people like it.

Jowey Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 so .. whats happened ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Not a lot unfortunately.Its cost me an arm and both legs in maintanance. So far had a front of engine service, new rad pump, center box, fuel filter, fuel tank fixed (leaked) discs and pads, brake lines and battery tray welded. Add in that Ive done 15k miles this year in it, doing 29mpg if your nice to her (which Im not!). Also with parts hoarding for the Arosa Ive not had the spare pennies to get what I have planned...All in all an expensive year for me (but so much of a laugh I wouldnt change it!)Heres some pointless pictures: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jowey Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 is this a non-sun roof model ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted December 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 No. As far as Im aware, all "S" models had sunroofs with the possible exeption of the Martini special edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Due to being a clot and buying a dog thats going to be a small horse when he's an adult my 924S going going up for sale. An extremely sad day.If anyones interested in a sound, much loved car, I will be putting it up for sale in the classifieds in the next couple of weeks...On a possitive note, at least it will free up space in the garage so the Arosa can come home rather than staying at my folks place (a 2 hour drive from me). This means I can start bringing it to shows and working on its next phase again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
