What a great way to start the day! I love the 944, always have done. I started driving in the late '70s & remember them at the time & wondering if they really would be the end of the 911.I'm glad it wasn't but kinda wish Porsche would build something in a similar vein alongside the current range. Unlikely! I have vivid memories of following one into a series of tight bends on a local dual carriageway, being driven by a woman who obviously had the car for it's badge, not what it could do. She suddenly braked, apparently scared of taking the bends so fast. I passed her some 30mph faster (must've been doing 70 then!) driving my 45bhp Metro City. I thought "What a waste, please swap cars with me!"
As you say it's great the different driving experiences you get from different cars, but equally enjoyable in their own way. I miss my recently departed Clio terribly. Not quite dialled in to the S1 that replaced it yet, but that'll come. I get equal pleasure from cruising in my E Class convertible. That Metro was a hoot with it's go kart handling. I guess I just love driving!
Taxed the 944 yesterday so Dad and I thought we’d stretch the oldies legs with a morning run to the Solent for a breakfast bap.
