Fabulous choice. Back in the late '90s while living in Philadelphia, one of my friends had a BMW 850csi, while another had a yellow 993 Turbo S while I had a 928GTS. Amazingly fun to have and go out for drives. Kudos on your impulse buy. Love the year, model and color combo. Kudos ;-)
I thought you might go for this one - beautiful car! The official name for the interior colour is ‘Cashmere’. It’s a truly beautiful car but that 996 Tequipment has to go and I’d also be tempted to revert to the standard rear lid too!
Best car collection on UA-cam in the 🇬🇧. Nothing pretentious here. Yes perfect car!! My dream car. Congratulations. Uploading more videos of the road trip?
You lucky chap you Damian. That 993 looks splendid in Forrest Green. Enjoy it. Those roads were pretty interesting, and the scenery. Thanks for sharing.
I "watched" this sale on Collecting Cars and thought at the time that has to be a great car to sell for that money. Then I bumped into this channel and saw you were doing this road trip back from Scotland. Wow, what a car. I am so pleased that it has found such a good home. I think in the long term it's a fabulous investment, but what pleasure you are going to have. We do an annual trip to East Lothian each year (only from the North West) to play golf and this year we will be taking my new 992. (Yes the clubs will fit in). I hope you have inspired many others. Driving in Scotland is such a joy. I will be watching your video again. Have a great life with you new acquisition. David
So, in order. Yes more of the collection and particularly why the owner has such an obsession. Any more footage of the next stop, that brief glimpse of the TVR wasn't enough? Lovely car in a lovely colour. Don't really get how it fits in your collection, but that might come clear when you explain your plans for it, or alternatively the answer is just 'the Collecting Cars Effect'.
Great video. Love the driving scene (country side and all). Just beautiful. I am getting tired of all those new cars with power and speed no one uses on the road. Great to see you make those classic cars relevant again for us younger people (not that you're that old, just older :) ). You definitely influenced (positively) my view on classic cars. Thank you for that.
Love it!! I am so glad you are looking back at the Porsche history! Other than your GT3 Touring, I think the older cars will give you the most pleasure!
hard to overstate how much I enjoyed this video. wonderful content and editing. the car is gorgeous and you really conveyed your new found love of the car and the ex-owners feelings on selling. I'm sure he's as happy you are the new owner as the rest of us the channel followers are. congratulations and enjoy it. looking forward to seeing lots more of it.
Congratulations on your new addition to the Car Guys garage. Lovely colour combo. The last of the best air cooled Porsches... you wore a great watch to collect it in too. The new Nautilus in the collection, I assume. Who's a lucky boy. New watch, new car.. more please.
Beautiful car Damian. That dark green paintwork really pops in the sun. I love the tan interior also. The 993 is one of my favourite Porsche shapes. I’m looking forward to future videos of the collection. Keep up the great work.
Drove past you guys in Hexham but wasn’t sure it was you for being so far up north, I do that run from Hexham to Edinburgh most sundays. Not a bad run til you hit the cameras in Jedburgh. Also lovely new car
What a journey and a car. Previously did a similar collection for an old car of mine, and the long journey home in my new car was such a fabulous moment.
👍Cannot beat or let go a C4S I'm the original owner only changed the springs for PSS9s and most of it is original, just changed the original fan&alternator a few months ago
Ah the Auld Country I miss so much....North Coast 500 for me and my fiat coupe this year! Did you drive past Tinto and Biggar? Great roads when they’re clear of traffic!!! Loving the new car!!
Good video, nice post-lockdown trip, and an excellent new car. Yes, I can see why it might not have been on your wish list, but a low mileage, low owner and in rare colour car will always strike at the heart strings ... and hence right though to the wallet! Great purchase - Good Luck!
Saw you in the little old 72 Spyder on the outskirts of Cheltenham on Thursday PM. Would have been a great passing photo if I'd been in my GT Silver / Red roofed GTS4.
Epic epic epic. Such a great little film and loved the travelling element and of course the car. Absolutely outstanding ..... hat's of ... super entertaining
Beautiful car! I am waiting for a 4.0L Cayman and a client has offered a 993 for the weekend, I should take him up on it. Are you going to leave the wing on?
Well done, it’s a beautiful car. I wish you the best of luck with your new purchase, love the colour it reminds me of my old mark 2 golf gti 16v in oak green.. 👍
Great car. How do you rate the diving pleasure in this car compared to the later (non GT) models. I have a 1996 C2 and keep wondering if I should upgrade, but am afraid I would be disappointed. if I did.
Weird , my neighbor had a C4S just like that,different color, BUT with the same wing so i thought that was original or on option for the model ,lol ,it really makes the car looks way more aggressive but still elegant ,its was always funny how the 993 looked tiny compared with modern cars of today,even Japanese ones . Its a nice pick up no matter how,good buy D!!
I've owned a 993 since 2005. The original owner is my doctor. He still asks me to bring 'the blue bomber' over whenever I'm going for a checkup.
The 993 the last air cooled gem & 4WD! Great colour combo too!The ultimate classic pure Porsche! Lovely! Thankyou!
Glad you liked it!
That is just lovely. I would personally swap back the spoiler though.
I agree!
Agree I don’t like that rear spoiler prefer the standard rear lid
Lose the rear wing and spacers and put the suspension to standard. The wide body 993 is purposeful enough.
Also to add that reason there aren’t many green cars around is that it is still considered to be unlucky by many
@@arrangrant6037 humans are silly aren't they
£100k - wow. When did these cars get this expensive? Nice, very nice

I know that collection it’s very special!
Congrats on the car too green over tan is excellent
Absolutely love forest green! What a car, great addition, another fantastic video, Damian!
What a sweet Porsche you got yourself. Way to go Damian. You cannot get more PORSCHE than a 993. Cheers to you.

Thanks 👍
Love it Damian....superb example 993 !!! Enjoy it to the max !! Drive it please
Congratulations, lovely new addition.
Nice impulse purchase Damian!
Green/Tan always a winner...just need to pop the original engine cover on it!
Cheers,
Chris

oh yeah and Nautilus, it needed no introduction!

What a purchase, looks unbelievable, congratulations, great video too.
Congratulations Damain what a lovely combo and great looking car. Enjoy my friend 👍
Nice Monte Carlo on the trailer👍👍
Great car. Well done.
Thanks for great video.
Exactly the same as my 997 C4S. Same colour and same interior - folks love it
"It feels special and that surely is the whole point!". Absolutely, that is the essence of driving a car like that and the enjoyment you get from it.

I'm sure he's as happy you are the new owner as the rest of us the channel followers are. congratulations and enjoy it. looking forward to seeing lots more of it.
A very lovely and tasteful addition to the garage.
Never considered how a 911 would look in dark green. Turns out it looks fantastic - good call!
You’re the best. I love impulse buys that turn out successfully. Enjoy the car, it’s a nice one!
Congratulations on your new addition to the Car Guys garage. Lovely colour combo. The last of the best air cooled Porsches... you wore a great watch to collect it in too. The new Nautilus in the collection, I assume. Who's a lucky boy. New watch, new car.. more please.
Couldn't agree more!
Congrats awesome spec - my brother in law inherited a red 993 wide body like this - pure classic and that sound ! Look forward to the trips
Bugger off those spacers ... but otherwise that 993 4S is perfect. Congrats.!
Amazing colour and beautiful car!! Congratulations!!
A lovely car. Happy ownership😎😎. Moffat is a great town and worth a stopover whenever Covid has slowed down.
Beautiful car Damian. That dark green paintwork really pops in the sun. I love the tan interior also. The 993 is one of my favourite Porsche shapes. I’m looking forward to future videos of the collection. Keep up the great work.
Lovely colour scheme, a great addition. Would def like more info on that collection. 🐐
Fabulous car Damian- I’d be minded to remove the techart spoiler and add back the period gear stick.
Congrats! Lovely car I am sure you will enjoy.
Congratulations. Beautiful car.
Congrats Damian, looks like a dream!
Drove past you guys in Hexham but wasn’t sure it was you for being so far up north, I do that run from Hexham to Edinburgh most sundays. Not a bad run til you hit the cameras in Jedburgh. Also lovely new car
Love it, love it, love it!! Please let's see more on that fine looking collection.
Did I mention that I love it😆
993s are the generation dearest to my heart-not that I could afford one. But still. Maybe someday!
In any case, that‘s a beautiful example!
Lovely acquisition from a beautiful part of the world. The colour combination is wonderful. Nice one, Damian. Enjoyed the music choice too! ENJOY!
What a journey and a car.
Previously did a similar collection for an old car of mine, and the long journey home in my new car was such a fabulous moment.
Congratulations!! Well done Damian!
Thank you so much 😀
Loved this car when it was on the Collecting Cars auction. Was watching it myself. Delighted you bought it as it really is stunning.
Absolutely fantastic car, and I love the green !
Congrats, beautiful, love it!
Great video guys, what an experience and what a car, that 993 looks beautiful! Congrats!
Gorgeous cars (each of them). Congrats on the new 911!
Great video, love the new addition!
I was slightly gutted there wasn’t more at Hexham Horseless Carriages. It was always a treasure trove.
Look forward to seeing this around the New Forest. You'll be easy to spot in this one, Damian.
👍Cannot beat or let go a C4S I'm the original owner only changed the springs for PSS9s and most of it is original, just changed the original fan&alternator a few months ago
That's a great find & buy, looks Awesome on the roads, has a supreme stance. Looking forward to the new adventures that lie ahead, Damian.
Lucky sod!!! Well played Sir👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Super! The C4S looks awesome in Green.
Ah the Auld Country I miss so much....North Coast 500 for me and my fiat coupe this year! Did you drive past Tinto and Biggar? Great roads when they’re clear of traffic!!! Loving the new car!!
Gorgeous car....gorgeous colr scheme. I would bring it back to spec. But would not expect you to do it because you have such a lovely collection.
Beautiful what a find !
Good video, nice post-lockdown trip, and an excellent new car. Yes, I can see why it might not have been on your wish list, but a low mileage, low owner and in rare colour car will always strike at the heart strings ... and hence right though to the wallet! Great purchase - Good Luck!
Nice addition Damian! Beautiful color combo.
Very very nice 993!
Very very nice purchase 👍.....and yes would love to see more of that Porsche collection 😀
Lovely, that is the perfect colour combination
Saw you in the little old 72 Spyder on the outskirts of Cheltenham on Thursday PM. Would have been a great passing photo if I'd been in my GT Silver / Red roofed GTS4.
Cool - yes would’ve been great
What a question is this??? Of course we want to see more of the Porsche collection there! Interesting and entertaining video. THX
993 is The most beautiful 911 in all its history. Congratulations
Great Vid guys and interesting addition to the the CG fleet. Sometimes the spontaneous buys can be the most fun ones.
What a beauty , congratulations mate , can't get much better than a 993
Awesome motor. Congratulations on the new arrival 👍👍👍
Beautiful car! Love it.
Epic epic epic. Such a great little film and loved the travelling element and of course the car. Absolutely outstanding ..... hat's of ... super entertaining
Great car with last owner for 18 yrs and beautiful color combi
woow stunning spec congratulations!
One of my favourite cars of all time, either a 4s or a turbo, amazing colour just as nice as the burgundy colour they did, well done
Nice one Damian, defo a keeper! Love it❤️ Congrats and greetings from 🇫🇮
Beautiful car! I am waiting for a 4.0L Cayman and a client has offered a 993 for the weekend, I should take him up on it. Are you going to leave the wing on?
What a peach. Sublime colour combo.
Wow! Great car! Lovely color, the right rims, and a nice rear wing on top. The Interieur also looks really great! - Congratulations!
An incredibly beautiful 993. Looks superb in dark green with the spoiler and the turbo wheels. Well done mate!
There is just something so special about an air cooled car. Definitely the right choice that adds something extra to the collection.
Well done, it’s a beautiful car. I wish you the best of luck with your new purchase, love the colour it reminds me of my old mark 2 golf gti 16v in oak green.. 👍
Absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations
The perfect impulse buy for a classic porsche. Previous owner definitely deserves a shout out for taking care of her
Great video Damian. I love the new addition, it's one of the finest in your fine collection!!
Could you advise how much to expect for the detailing? I too have a 993 which needs a good polish. Great video and great car!!
Great car. How do you rate the diving pleasure in this car compared to the later (non GT) models. I have a 1996 C2 and keep wondering if I should upgrade, but am afraid I would be disappointed. if I did.
Beautiful spec! Your problem with rubbing is the spacers not the springs.
Beautiful motor - colour combo is super special.. can we see more of that rather fab collection you mentioned?
Love it! Slightly surprised you went for a Carrera 4 but love the 993 and really lovely rare spec!
Of course we want to see the collection :D
Very nice c4s, think I would ditch the spoiler to get a view of that back end, stunning
My favourite colour combo. Very jealous
Lovely car I would put the original engine lid back on as well as the gear stick and front lights 👍
Love the colour.Awesome.
Epic Damian, what a magnificent addition to the garage. Just love the stance and colour combination. Many congratulations
Weird , my neighbor had a C4S just like that,different color, BUT with the same wing so i thought that was original or on option for the model ,lol ,it really makes the car looks way more aggressive but still elegant ,its was always funny how the 993 looked tiny compared with modern cars of today,even Japanese ones .
Its a nice pick up no matter how,good buy D!!
