DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hi All
Running a little late with this but MOT'd the Spyder a week ago...
Passed 1st time with no advisories (for the 3rd year in a row).
Happy? You bet I am!

All the best

Going back a few years now, but didn't Tuthil's build Chris Harris a 911 'resto mod', I seem to recall him wiping around in a green, wide arched, long bonnet car they built..?

All the best

. OK Ian ... The Elite is raw, noisy, involving, exciting – every drive puts a big smile on my face. For me it's everything a sportscar should be with nothing superfluous - but it doesn't like today's poorly-surfaced UK roads On the other hand the Fulvia feels light, airy, effortless (but accomplis...

Hi Andy
Please don't leave us hanging
What would you say are the differences in their characters?
I had a 64 Alfa Giulia Sprint GT followed by a 73 911T, loved them both but again very different cars.

Off on a bit of a tangent here but I can't help wondering if this one is still out there somewhere... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230808/0c2741b70fce0d74d7e0a56092c33b0d.jpg Driven by Lewis Collins as Gavin (no, not Bodie) in an episode of 'The Cuckoo waltz'. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/...

Winner! Paul’s work maybe but your initiative and your car, you made it happen. Thanks Sam. ‘Wheels up North’ yesterday, no trophy but I did get this cup (well Mug)… https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230710/08130e1c324e7fde5ccd6d4737785d76.jpg Close up purely out of vanity… https://uploads.tapatal...

Morning All Another weekend and another Classic car show… Yesterday it was ‘Wheels Up North’ at the Westmoreland Show Ground. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230710/efc331d14d10f18ec6e8d9f853c44a16.jpg Now, I know it’s not a Porsche (and I’m not a member ether) but they kindly let me park away fr...

Hi All Time for an update, work, the cost of running a 997 as a ‘daily’ and a sick upholsterer (seats on hold for now), basically life, has got in the way of any real changes to my ‘rep’ but it has allowed me time to ‘pop’ along to a few local events… So purely by chance I ended up flowing a rather ...

Hi All As always it's a bit late minute with me but does anyone fancy popping along to this? It's not as close to me as the 'Westmoreland Show Ground Wheels up North' that's the weekend after but still only a couple of miles so I be going alone whatever... https://fb.me/e/17b61EWra Be great to see a...

Oh My
From this thread it's starting to look like the Lotus is the most reliable car you have...

Well, Yesterday was OPC South Lakes 75th birthday fun day so I popped a long in a ‘fake’ Porsche…[emoji6] https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230611/049a130fa2d01a947c1ebffc512b00a0.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230611/0c4d4e10ace8820b7e2c0e9591ac42b8.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...

I can't believe it had only been around for five years when I joined, it felt like such an established source on knowable (and opinions).
Don't know what I do without it now!

Ya us!
