47926's 1973 Porsche 911


1973 PORSCHE 911T 2.4
This was again a classic 911 but this time it was right hand drive and in absolute mint condition . The car was a dead stock 2.4 and had a mere 145,000 km on the clock. This car was bought purely due to emotion.

The Driving impressions of the 911T 2.4
Here are some of my impressions with regards to driveability You must keep in mind that the older cars should not be compared to the technology available today .

Performance :

This 73 was a superb car. It was dead stock standard and with very low mileage. Man what a car. It used to give the 535 BMW?s headaches on the road. This car was quick of the mark and had a top speed at least 127 MPH (205 KMH) It had a four speed gearbox and the shift was perfect.

Handling :

The 911 was good in this category. This car had widened rims a full 6" in front and 7" at the rear. This changed the cars looks entirely and the rims filled the wheel arch gaps better. This car handled superb. This car could handle and the reason was the wider wheels.

Braking ability :

The braking ability of this car was good no mater what the conditions.

Overall:

We never undertook long trips in this car but overall it was a likable car.
The four speed 2.4 was really very torquey.
