Zippy, did you ever see the episode of Top Gear where they all had to buy a Porsche for less than about £1000, complete a few challenges and then sell them again?
All the cars they bought were pretty much useless, so I wouldn’t have too much hope of your fiance’s one being any good! But the cool thing about it was that one of the presenters, Clarkson I think, removed the engine block and got someone to make it into a glass-topped coffee table, and also made a sofa with the front seats. The price he sold the coffee table and sofa for was higher than the price he paid for the whole car!
lmao, well we going to pick it up later, and it is in good nick, parts and dirt cheap.
did you really trust a porshce for that cheap?
ending up paying for the ebay to relist it, body was fine, interior was worn but the 5min it was running radiator leak.

DaimlerChrysler is the parent company of Mercedes, BMW is an independent company which is the parent company of BMW MINI and Rolls Royce, and Porsche is also an independent company which recently bought shares in VAG (VW).
Mercedes, BMW, and Porsche are all separate companies in competition with each other.
The VW-Porsche connection occurs because of this:
VW is a company that was started by Adolf Hitler, who decided that every family in Germany should have a tractor or a car. He approached Ferdinand Porsche, who ran an consulting firm, to develop a car that was both affordable and practical for the general public, hence the name “volkswagen”, or in English, “peoples car”. Porsche designed a number of prototypes, and eventually developed one for mass production, which was eventually nicknamed the “Beetle”.
Porsche’s firm (which stayed active when he took on management of Volkswagen) continued to develop his own cars under his own name. The reason why the Beetle and early Porsches share such a similar shape is because Ferdinand Porsche designed them both. Because of that historical connection you find VW stamped on many Porsche parts since many of those parts were made by VW.
