30/06/14 Ace Cafe Porsche Night - Eeyore - 04-07-2014 I had to go and give Niall his bonnet which amazingly still just about fits in a 306 with bucket seats. Anyway as expected there were some decent cars. Enjoy!

I really want a 944 tbh as well. RE: 30/06/14 Ace Cafe Porsche Night - powerandtorque - 04-07-2014 Regular 944's are suprisingly reasonable price wise and don't look too bad a proposition from an ownership POV tbh, with Turbo's and S2's unsurprisingly commanding a fair premium and with higher running costs but nothing too ridiculous. As far as I know from when I was considering one a couple of years back, Porsche are really good for supporting the older cars too in terms of parts supply and pricing - something that certainly can't be said for Peugeot who seem to be NFP'ing even quite basic parts now for the 205/309/405 and earlier 306's now. I know that they were shunned as not being a "proper" Porsche by 911 snobs, but I can't quite understand why 944's are so cheap still when by all accounts they're a good car in their own right - even really tidy low mileage ones aren't that costly in the grand scheme of things compared to other, arguably lesser, cars of that era. I mean, could anyone buying a 944 new have ever realistically thought that a humble 205 or Golf of the same age would end up being more valuable 25 years later? It's a funny old world...
