    For the automotivated ones

    The Car I hankered after most since when I was 15 was The Porsche 911 Turbo. For years as a Kid I'd rememeber the comforting noise my fathers VW beetle/Bug made and when I found out about the link between the VW Beetle and the air cooled rear engines Porsche 911 I'd already fallen. The 911 is...

    Circular thoughts in my head..
