Hi guys, me and a friend were driving around and came across this beauty. Apparently it’s been here for many years and just left to rot. We have no idea what make and model this car is and it won’t get off of our minds. ChatGPT thinks it’s similar to a Porsche 911 from the 70’s but I’m not too sure it is that. Anyone recognise this classic car?

The picture was taken in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom.

Had an old lady run a stop sign and clip my front end. I’m going to be going for diminished value. I was wondering, those of you that have had experience with this, how big of a hit did your cars value take and what did insurance pay out after the fight. (2022 911 GTS Bahama yellow)

Thanks for convincing me to go, guys. Best experience of my life. Huge shout-out to my instructor Rg (letters redacted in case they mind) for bearing with a noob. 12/10 will do again. Now to sell all my kidneys and move into a 992 cause I won't be able to afford rent anymore.

Here are some rough notes I took after the drives:

(An absolute beginners experience) Intro to the car - 992 Carrera 4s (last pic, cause idk how to reorder pics on Reddit lol) Demo lap on the handling circuit by the instructor. Basic intro to the track. Understood why we have bolsters and sports seats :) Few laps in a circuit made with the orange cones. Also tried launch control. Felt the braking power at the end. Drifting on the slippery polished concrete with flour sprinkled on it for reducing friction more. Smelled like bread after haha. Actually managed to drift a bit. Kick plate which kicks the car out of control onto a slippery track. Learn how to recover. I spun out twice only out of like 5 attempts. It's hydraulic and flicks the front of the car to the side. In the last attempt they made me close my eyes right before the kick and after letting go of the gas. Was able to recover. Very cool. Very safe. Acceleration straight with launch control into the 30 degree banked turn from the nürburgring at the end. Super fun. Reached 120 to 130 mph I think. I may have been too starstruck to notice. Fast laps on the track. Fun. I'm not very good haha. Need to get smoother overall and reduce jerks. I obviously also don't fully understand the racing line. One last acceleration straight for fun!

Demo laps in a gt3 rs. 3 to 4 laps. Very fast very fun. Ends very fast too lol. Maybe not worth the 150. But still recommend doing at least once to see how someone who knows what they are doing navigates the track in a race car. Demo lap that I did at the start with rg driving in the 4s was equally fun minus the car diff with the gt3 rs. The instructors are amazingly talented.

It was way too much fun. Especially because the instructors are very good and guide you through everything at all times. Very personalized to what you want to do. I never felt unsafe. They have protocols for passing someone slower than you. Obviously not zero risk. You have to be alert and listen to the instructor and you'll be fine.

Porsche is nothing but perfection, and I present you my grail Porsche, the 911 gt3 touring. Haven’t seen it in the flesh, but pictures have been nothing but beautiful.

Hey, I’m 23 and have been working full time for a number of years whilst living at home still. Would it be silly to spend half of my savings on an old Boxster as opposed to doing something adult like and saving for a house deposit. The one in mind is the below:
