RivieraBob Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Noooo!…..reminds me of people you see at airports with suitcases gummed up with 'Me and Mavis have been to Torremolinos' stickers. ps I am aware you have one Daktari, having just watched your Pyrenees vid from start to finish. Looks like it was great fun. pps I do hope your missus isn't called Mavis and you had your honeymoon in Torremolinos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Rock Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Every time I have a new windscreen I lose the stickers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teme Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 11.200km done this year and that is going to be it for this year as I am relocating to the UK for a few months while the car stays in Finland 😪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teme Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Thought of that, but will be based in central London. Not much use for the car there. And safe parking would be a PITA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the rush hours traffic it was fantastic. But not too shabby on the track or on the winding roads. They are seriously underrated in my opinion and would definitely have another if I could keep two aircooled 911’s. But I did want to have something more pure. To me this meant manual gears, less weight, more simplicity. I love this car even more 😎 A snap of my 964 that now resides in a good home back in Germany: Edited August 30, 2018 by Teme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teme Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) It was actually midnight blue (Nachtblau metallic). Looked black in some light/angle, dark blue from anothe and had a purple twist from some angles. Great car, great colour and I think even the transmission was great. No trouble keeping up with manual 996’s on the track (and I think Walter Röhlr was only a couple of secs slower with a tippy than with a manual 964 on the Nordschleife). But the tippy is so superior in town. Edited August 30, 2018 by Teme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went from a 997TT (albeit manual) to an IB for the very same reasons. Hope it works out haha. 8 minutes ago, World Citizen said: That looks so good in black, lovely and to think 964's were once unloved Seriously. I looked at 964s several times when they were cheap but assumed I could always get one cheap. Real smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkJ Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Approx 60k miles in mine in 9yrs, probably just a little behind Frazer in countries driven too I passed the 195K mark on the clock whist hooning around Castle Combe a couple of months back...a fitting way to do it Like Teme, I went from a black 964 C4 to an IB for the same reasons he did, purity and lightweight.
