Sorry for typing in English but my Dutch is useless.... am Amsterdam based but work internationally and my Dutch girlfriend is fluent English...makes it hard to learn!

anyway, am new owenr of an 86 944 turbo, I love it but it has some issues... on the plus side oil pressure, engine temp etc all seem fine but it's the little things.....dodgy sunroof, dodgy bootlid...leaky gearbox..... that will keep me busy over the winter...

Very interested to know if there are any 944/porsche meet ups in the Amsterdam area, if you guys can recommend good local Dutch places to source parts new and second hand and can recommend any good independent mechanics!

my car -
1986 944 turbo, currently with 89k on the clock...

Cheers. Not sure how keen she'll be to spend time searching car things on the internet but will give her a try!

Welcome Gavin :thumleft: , this site could prove to be invaluable while you are trying to navigate your way around the Dutch Porsche scene. So if you can read Dutch it would help, good luck with your 944 and keep an eye on the meetings page for events in your area http://www.porscheforum.nl/viewforum.php?f=16

P.S. Its not looking good for Scotland, Norway 3 -Scotland 0 :pale:

Hi! Welcome here on this forum. It contains lots of information, but indeed, when not able to read in Dutch it's quite difficult to find what you're looking for. However... lots of frequent visitors are willing to help you in your search and provide you in your info :wink: .
Nice car you have there. Van der Gugten has prepped a few especially for circuit, so can deliver some goodies, and knows a lot about the 944.
Good luck anyway. :D
