OFF-TOPIC: Chris Harris' custom vintage 911
Nothing to do with BMWs, but surely any petrolhead would love this?:

Yes, the Singers are lovely. I think they seem to do a lot more little bespoke fittings for the looks, but I think maybe Chris has gone to town more on the suspension set up for his.
Either way, something like that would be high up on my lottery win wishlist. I can't think of anything that looks so much fun hoon around in. How could you drive one on a sunny day on a good road and not be the happiest man on the planet?

As beautiful as they are I just don't get classic cars.
Even if I had the money for something like a 250GTO, I would rather spend it on a load of modern supercars. |

Given the number of modernised retro models I guess it's something which is getting more popular. Rich mans game though. The eagle roadster version of an e-type is close to half a million I think.

I think the "oldest" porker I'd be interested in would be a 959.
I'm not clued on enough to know of it is considered a classic yet, hell I don't even know what their worth at the moment, but I do know if I had one I'd most certainly make full use of it, and not have it as a show piece in my garage. |

Gordon, remember your thread about a syndicate to have shared ownership of a weekend toy? That would be something I'd love to do with something like that Tuthill Porsche. I expect if you did it right then it could be a good investment too, the way classic cars are appreciating.
