Essex roadster

Hi everybody,
I live in essex and have been the proud owner of a 914 for the best part of 10 years. I have recently debated selling her as a new motorbike, too many hours at work, and lets not forget good old British weather has prevented me getting anywhere near as much use out of her as I would like.
But then you find communities like this one one which remind you what classic porsche ownership is all about!

Hi Kingfu - welcome to DDK.

I'm very close to you in Harwich, and travel to Galleywood once a month to meet some of the others - see the future events section.

Look forward to seeing you at a meet soon.

Ravenna Green, cool colour

I have found it to be a bit of a marmite colour. People either love it or hate it. I obviously think it is great - there are not many cars on the road I would be brave enough to drive around in revina green, but I think the 914 pulls it off nicely.
Unfortunately, as you can see from the picture, everytime I bring it out to play it conjours up the rain.
