Treated myself yesterday

Post by Gary Howard »

Having enjoyed my 944 Cab for 3 years, I felt it was time for a 911

Looks good and a great colour choice. :D

I never went from a 944 to a 911, I had the 928 in between, but I suspect it's a wee bit different to drive? You settling into the new driving style?

It's slightly more direct slightly more sticky and slightly more flies in the teeth quick

Tbf, as we all appreciate very very different cars for different things. I still love my 944, sorry Wayne :? But this is a different league.
