Wont come with the nardi wheel as it has sentimental value , will put standard steering wheel back on

 

 

it does sweet Os. Like almost the best Os I've ever done since I drove an f430 scuderiaiaer

 

I broke the gearbox pole thing when I was cutting some Os but then I borrowed a strippers shoelaces and an alcoholics vice grips and now it does Os again.

 

so fucking loose in the rain im probably going to die in it.

 

Also cops don't give a shit if you speed in porsches. I passed one on sh16 at 120mph and he flashed his lights and waved. At least that's the official story

 

future plans are to replace shoelaces and vice grips with a hose clamp and then do more skids for the kids

 

got instragramed already:

 

 

fixed

Both true.

After 8 winters in a forest covered by Bunnings finest car cover, we (CC @rot808) are delighted & honoured & somehow entrusted enough to announce that tomkirkgarys Porsche has left the bush and will be settling in amongst its new mostly Mazda family with us. 
 

We hope to do Thomas proud, and to see how good these O’s really are. Preferably with now aged stripper shoelaces in place.
