    He's the Guru on 911s, you shouldn't look at an advert without consulting him first.

    That's a fabulous image. We're you masturbating behind that 924?

    Don't see what's revisionist about quoting a Paul Frere book!

    As for the transaxle. There's no such thing as an Audi 100 transaxle.

    Let's ask Walter:

    I'd love a 924 Carrera GTS. I would settle for a GT. And I'd buy a base 924 just to annoy Ian.

    I drove Winston's 924 Carrera GT years ago. I really liked it. Small, light, responsive. More than enough power.

    You need to go have a baby, under a viaduct, with your automatic 924 and a tartan rug.

    Audi 100 has the engine hung ahead of the front axle, with the diff and gearbox behind. It's a 911 architecture rotated 180 degrees.

    VW took the diff and gearbox part and moved it to the rear of a 924, in a different casing. The gearbox is all Audi 100 and feels it.

    I cannot believe that you of all people are defending 924's... there's only one real Porsche and it's called 911.

    Next thing you'll be singing the praises of Boxsters :eek:

    I’d like a 968 turbo. Pretty popular Porsche transaxle hot rod.

    To be fair, they are probably the best of their type.

    Although the front tyres are known to have issues. Apparently. [emoji41]

    And you'd put the original wheels back on, fit an original radio and refit the A/C compressor to differentiate it from all the other junk out there.
