Why I love the Porsche's that others hate, or have I lost my mind?
I do have a view on why all Porsche cars are in fact great drivers cars with great engineering attributes, however, as with any car company, there are some models that don't always meet the expectations of the market, the customer and engineering that can go a little of course.
So let's look at the good, the bad, and the ugly, of front-engined Porsches and Porsche, 911 upsets
So what steps have I taken so far and whats to come?
Continuing the journey on restoring my 924. What steps have I achieved so far and what's to come.
Why did I pick a 924 to restore?
The road is long but a horizon is ahead. So why did I pick the 924 and what can you expect when you tackle a Porsche 924.
