You know you have a 944 when....

When you spend a day every other weekend tinkering and fettling something "on one of the cars" the other weekend during summer is hooning of somewhere to a Porsche/Classic show.

When you expect that bit you "need" to have arrived when you get back home from work.

When you spend twice as long at tyre fitting places and friendly MOT stations having the "craic" about the car.

When a lovely young female petrolhead working at the filling station says the "Porsche" is gorgeous............she was a VW Dubber.

When you chase the kids and the dogs out of the garage in case they knock something over on to the car.

When you know you will probably not see another when out and about in it except when out and about with Porcshe matey's.

When your ears "prick up" when you find that there is a dead one in the local scrappy.

When you go on this forum religiously every night.


I could go on, and most of my mates say i do [:D]
 
I am, 32deg in the shade and 42deg at present in the full sun [:D][:D]

It was like October at Gatwick when we left 1 flaming June eh?

But have to check in now and again, I might otherwise miss something!
 
when you collect lollypop sticks off the kids because you need them to clean out the (non-bridge) spoiler drain slots and the sill drains.
 
I've always found the cord that holds up net curtains really good for this sort of job but if you get into trouble with the boss it's your fault not mine [8|]

Cheers

strimmerline - that'll do the sunroof drain tubes as well
I believe this is very effective but you have to be careful not to push the rubber tubes off the end of the feed pipes as they are a sod to get back on.
That of course is the sort of trivial knowledge that brands us as 944 owners.....the ability to have a complete conversation about the best way of cleaning the inside of the sunroof drain pipes.

When you have the desire to change the engine out lol

Well, at least I can be the king of "what is the most expensive thing you have replaced unnecessarily?" thread... when I get to the bottom of what the hell it is!

Ah yes... you know when you have a 944 and you replace parts that don't need replacing because you want to do something!!!

You know you have a 944 when....

People with cars 10 times the value tell you what a nice car you have and they wish they could afford one!

and when owners of newer porsches come over wistfully and tell you they had one and it was the best car they ever owned.
