Hubby fancies a trip there on Sunday to watch in the hope of seeing some Porsche's - he said we would take the T5 if he thought we would see any more there or anyone from this forum :)

Personally I would love to go up and test out the 944 Turbo against a few
T5's. That would be for a social and a meet up mainly not some grudge match ! .

My other half is still driving the T5 daily and we still love the car, however I'm really enjoying the 944 Turbo for being something a little different. The main thing that attracted me to Porsche was exactly the same thing that attracted me to Volvo ' quality' though TBH I dont think the modern Volvo
( and I have one) isn't a touch on the older ones. I'd love to know which is quicker on the strip , the Volvo obviously would prefer a straight line and the Porsche being lighter can't be too much in it ?.

944 folk seem to be good people too and I happen to know one who is very fond of running his car at the pod so he'd be up for it. Possibly something for the spring though ?
