    This week The CarGuys search for and buy not one, but two 1980s Porsche 911s! Why? Why not?
    Jason has been searching for one for over 6 months and has finally found the perfect 3.2 Carrera at Paul Stephens (www.paul-stephens.com) - a 17k mile perfect condition example in Marine Blue.
    Meanwhile Damian has also found a classic 911 Supersport Targa, somewhat recklessly, from auction (just because it looks cool), and is planning to surprise Jason by turning up on collection day.
    What are the differences between these two classic Porsche 911s? How do they drive 30 years on? Are Spike Ferresten and Jerry Springer correct in claiming that Porsches offer the greatest driving experiences? Is this just the beginning of a new Porsche corner of the CarGuys garage?
    All these questions and more are answered in this two-part film.
    Created by two ordinary guys with an obsession for cars, TheCarGuys.tv is a digital channel that celebrates everything automotive - supercars, classics, quirky, hidden gems and those in the TCG garage.

    Great video guys. Well put together. Brings back many memories, including turning down a lovely supersport targa at £8k because it had had a front wing repair and one small rust spot! Another one of my ‘If I’d only known’ car buying moments!

    Interesting how the steering wheel in Damian’s 911 changed from the beginning of the video to the end. Guessing he left the auction 911 at the shop and took a different one.

    Late to this video, but it's a great one. The oil level guage is only readable at idle on level ground, as I recall. Remember a dealer telling me how it confused almost everyone.
    Had so many great drives in a 1984 Carrera coupe. Manual steering, heavy hinged pedals, bad Blaupunkt radio and A/C, serious lift-off oversteer, no cup holders (a good thing). It really was special and so visceral. Love these cars!
