  3. There's a 916SP Racing (really just a 916SP) on Ebay at the moment for I think £37,500 - it has a different engine and a recent new frame but still advertised as a 1994 original :bucktooth:

  5. I think we are all going to have to lower our expectations somewhat in the new ‘normal’ we are facing. On the upside, the price of land in Bali will be falling accordingly as 80% GDP is from the tourism sector!
     
  6. In the background can be seen a bottle of hand sanitizer. Who knew this was a thing a couple of months ago?

    But they are really expensive bitsas and I have all of the oriinal bitsas plus spare bitsas in the loft if needed. :bucktooth:

  11. I can help rob with this. look at the picture on post 1 and the right hand side of the worktop. The different height between the tall units and the wall units was to allow a beer fridge. Surely a garage without comparisson must have a beer fridge and as such, passed the well established laws of man cave planning put forward by gallileo

  13. And the plug socket height behind was also put in place to compensate for the fridge, but some don't listen @noobie :innocent:

    Actually, the wall cabinets just worked better at this height too, if I lined them up with the top of the free standing cabinets, the wall units were too low. :upyeah:

  15. That wall socket was a glaring error which was hidden by a beer fridge that wasn't planned to be in that particular position :eyes:

  20. I nearly sold my 1098 for a V4.
    I've had it back out and it's utterly fantastic.
