Hello from SF Bay Area
#1

Thanks for adding me to this forum. Just got a (new to me) 1992 Tiptronic coupe with 38.3k miles. This was a very lucky find. As with any low mileage, lightly used car in recent years, it's going through a top to bottom maintenance and safety inspections today.


I'm in Morgan Hill, 10 miles south of San Jose. Would love to hear from other SF Bay Area or NorCal members. Perhaps we can arrange a get together for a meet, greet and drive some day (before we put our cars away for the winter)


Regards, Don

Hi Don

There are several of us in the Bay Area. I am in the North Bay, Marin County specifically in Novato.

 

PS: Why would you put your car away? I drive it year long. We are in California after all. My 968 is a daily driver, she loves to get out and run.

Hi Kaj,


Leftover habit of not driving my toys in the rain (Nov to Mar in NorCal) when I had an open car. Will let you know next time I’m in Marin County.

Hi, Don. Welcome to the forum. I'm in Orinda in the East Bay. My '58 TR3A hibernates, but my '93 Cab goes year round as a DD. The once-a-year West Coast Gathering is indeed a fun event. Perhaps a Sunday morning Bay Area meet up and drive could be arranged? I know I would be interested.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.


Kaj and Bill, great to meet a couple of 968ers in the Bay Area. I'll look for the West Coast Gathering info for 2018.


Bill, FYI: 10/15 is the annual Morgan Hill British Fall classic. It's sponsored by "On The Road Again Classics" also in MH. They're a British classic car restoration shop, and Bill Hiland (owner) is a super guy. http://thebritishfallclassic.com
