I cannot help but wonder if a significant proportion of funds were allocated to production of this video as opposed to the car:

A 51 plate Renault Laguna in mint condition. A rare sight.
Edit - I just checked the MOT history. It’s only done 20,000 miles.

Due to it spending 84% of its life in a garage refusing to work by the standards of my mate’s one.
My name is Mike and I am a Renaultholic 
I’ve had my 8 year old one for over 6 months now and it’s not missed a beat. I’m really quite taken by it.

Every French car I’ve owned has been a fetid, boiling cauldron of shit.
The best thing I can say about them is that the Shitroen was comfy and the Pughoes were, um, actually I can’t say anything good out those buckets of automotive offal and shite.
If I ever even contemplate another french twat toboggan, and that includes Nissault and vauxgeot I’ll open up an artery with a spoon.
Contemplated sticking this in the Pork thread but I want these so they’re going here.
Unusually, at the moment, you can buy a very tidy recreation of not one but three rather smart bits of Pork. First, the most commonly encountered one; a 1973 2.7RS.
Importantly, it’s a 1973 car with a genuine 2.7 RS engine and all the trimmings, rather than an eighties car playing dress up.
Then, someone has gone and done the same with a 964 and made a 964 RS (@edd9000 found this one)
Again, it’s pretty much bolt perfect; a period correct car taken down to bare metal and given all the bits it needed to be correct.
And finally; for real test pilots, EB Motorsport has gone and built a 911R.
This one is truly obsessively done; everything is period correct save for it having 911S brakes (something Porsche couldn’t actually make fit in period) and better suspension. The result weighs 830kg with fluids in and, given it also has 220bhp, it’s probably quite exciting.
I’d like all of them please.

As I age I seem to have developed some sort of 911 gland that’s pumping weird chemicals into my brain demanding I want one. I find myself browsing autotrader looking at 997s knowing full well that ship has sailed and buying one would be folly given my advancing state of decrepitness.
I also find myself browsing ISFs and CL63s
because I’m a total plonker with the financial sense of a plank of wood.
Anyway car service time next month. If there’s anything big looming I might have to sell it and find something else….

Recent experiences of Porks have confirmed I’ve crossed the Rubicon of old age, as I now know for absolute certain that I don’t want one, nor anything like one. Too loud, too brash, too uncomfortable and unusably fast. Since I have no need to impress other T-depleted old men in golf club car parks, no use-case can be made.
