Glad to hear that you are both OK. I let a friend borrow my 951 once and he ran into a fence when going around a corner and the boost came on. It had rained slightly and he said that it spun when he got on the gas. After that I made up my mind that the nobody other than myself will drive my toys (Porsche, bikes, etc.)

Jeez, that sucks. Adds a little reality to what these toys we play with are capable of doing to us.
Hope it all works out without too many hastles! sm |

Ok a day has gone by and your alright. Great. Lets look at the positive. When your insurance company spikes you on the value of your car your not going to be too pleased. BUT... If you buy back the salvage your going to have one hot 914! BTW call the towing guy and have him drain the oil. The crank case is probably filled with water. if you can also pull the spark plugs and drain the cylinders. Then get something designed for fogging boat cylinders for winter storage. This should save the motor until you can have a better look.

okay, the car is at that Porsche shop we went to. Great shop, hopefully he will salvage the motor quick. Those rims will look good on the 914/6 too. Geoff |
