1981 Porsche 911 SC review from Australia and New Zealand
"Art"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear brake caliper sticking.
High/low beam not working.
Radio/cassette not working.
Minor little problems.
General comments?
This is my first rear engined car, it sticks to the road incredibly well.
It is very quick, give the feeling of a 767 at take off roll.
I say 767 as the thrust is stronger than a 747.
It is an event when I start it every 2 or so weeks, I just sit there and let it come to life, slowly so all parts are well lubricated before setting off.
Ah is there any other car that gives the same emotion?... no!
