    Well it's taken six years, and yes it's tatty, and yes it's neglected, and yes the front wheels are on backwards, but............. It's Black and it's mine :)

    agree with the others, a 348 looks awesome in black and that ass is right on par with a 993 widebody ass. love the 348 from the rear - so damn wide.

    I’m doing a pretty full restoration on my 91 TB right now and will be putting it up for sale this summer.
    It will have very nice 9 out of 10 black interior with 355B seats.
    Fresh paint, I need to fix and weld up the cracked buttresses so the whole cars getting painted.
    All new suspension bushings, ball joints, tie rods, new drilled rotors, new pads, rebuilt shocks
    Full major service, I’m going in and changing oil tensioner pads, update bearings, new water pump, everything.
    It also has a fresh clutch and Hill Engineering TO bearing and flange shaft.
    Its gonna be beautiful.

    Be sure to post up some pics! A nice black TB looks pretty mean!

    I just bought a black/black 575 and I wouldn't have it any other way - the car looks positively gorgeous. The color shows the lines perfectly. I love my red 348, but damn, that black 575...

    Black does look good!

    What's on the job list?

    Interested to compare notes as I've had mine 10 months now and had a few "issues" to sort out since I bought it. No fault of the car, just a dodgy PPI and a MOT inspector who really should be going to Specsavers!!

    Not sure what the will come up, as she has done only 250 miles in the last two years, and was off the road for the previous 11! Central locking not working, and the passenger window not working. Had a belt service, and brakes all done, and new tyres all round. So will take a few wee runs and see what rears its head.

    central locking..lots of threads on that. I had to do mine, was the little tumbler piece that hills makes a replacement for. Unlike a lot of the threads on this, you can do this without taking the door completely apart.

    My windows work, but V slow. Not the top of my list to spend money on etc.

    Mine was stood for a few years as well. I've had the odd error code, but they have cleared themselves with use. What I'm finding is the car is far happier with regular use.

    Keep the pics coming!
