  • The hunt for my first classic is back on! After a tip off from Ed Lovett at Collecting Cars, I visit Tuthill Porsche, arguably one of the best in the business of restoring, rebuilding and maintaining classic Porsche 911 road and race cars.
    Head over to Collecting Cars if you're interested in bidding on the Tuthill Special 911:

    @MrElnuno Před 4 lety

    As a long time 911 owner and lover it's always fun to watch people have that 'awakening' moment with classic air-cooled 911's. It's certainly a car you either get or don't.

  • @yashmajithia8427
    @yashmajithia8427 Před 4 lety

    If you’re considering a classic Porsche , targa is the one to go for! Targas look so beautiful. 912s are great but a 911 is a 911. And you’re better off with a 6 cylinder because whatever you do to a 912, you can’t get much power out of that little engine. You spend a lot of your time driving really quick, modern cars, you’ll find the 912 to be slow. I really hope you read this, I suggest you get a classic 911 Targa in the colour of your choice, 2.7 should be good and manual (of course). If you’re on a tighter budget, a 964 911 Targa will be cheaper than a classic 911 but it’ll retain the iconic lines and the air cooled motor and it won’t break the bank at the same time. Loved watching this video, really hope you do more videos about Porsches. ☺️

    I discovered the Weissach Test Track many years ago- via my new mountain bike. At the time Porsche was running the prototype Boxter around it in a mule body. I watched and checked the times improving as they tweaked the brake balance. Anyway, years later my best friend went on to work for Porsche and helped build the 918. Sam I fully support buying a classic car. My choice would be an Alfa Guilia GTA 69 to 71. It’s like riding with Enzo on a budget but without any rev limiter. Pure Italian goodness.
