Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

So much this..

You need INOX lips but £££

Just fitted my Garmin dashcam, it's been sitting on top of my singles box looking pissed off since Christmas... Pretty easy to hide the power cable, no extra equipment needed and it all seems to work perfectly!! Result!

Tomorrow I may be restoring my headlight lenses, they are cloudy as, bro...

Yeah, we have had a tag for about 5 years, makes it so much easier.

Also going to be in the Alps in August. But not in a 911 unfortunately.

Singles box? A box for keeping records in, or am too old to understand?

All advice very welcome- last time I drove in Europe I went through Austria without buying a pass because I didn’t know that I should!

So for e.g. which passes to buy based on the route I posted would be awesome.

I think this is where we got our tag

Have you chosen your route specifically? If not, I would suggest avoiding going anywhere near Paris. We normally do the tunnel, then down to Troyes on the A26 to stop for the night.

Ha! Reconstruction, just for you... I need to run a duster over the back of that unit...

PS I didn't pay that, it was super reduced and I managed to buy it with part of the cashback we got from the air conditioner we bought for the bedroom...

And it's great! Enjoying the novelty of watching myself drive on TV for the first time...

Maybe best not to avoid Paris then...

Well I finally got the car home after driving it 750 km this weekend and sleeping in the back of it! It wants a few things doing but so far it’s an epic car to drive.

Took the 911 out for a little zip through the lanes, somewhat ashamed of not having driven it for ages.

Really underlined that there's a significant difference between a fast car and a sports car.

Did you bung it into a hedge?

Seamlessly from hedge to porn...........some shiny toys in central London today.

No pics of the 356 next to the red breakdown machine?

This one?

No breakdown vehicles around when I was there but I didn't hear it running :)
Preferred these two Porsche's personally.

superb, but the 356b coupe!

That second silver one (‘Snowden’?) looks backwards.

Lol.

Spyder :)

That 037. Oof!

Hah that’ll be it.

Oof. Like.
