    I posted this in the Motors forum but did not get one reply - I'm sure you guys will appreciate it more though... :)

    I had to share this, a really amazing short movie about of of the most unlikely, yet coolest Porsche collectors - very very cool story - this pretty much defines "Living the Dream". Here is the trailer:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0lPa_9it2c


    The full movie is here: http://www.reelhouse.org/mos/urbanoutlaw/urbanoutlaw - it's 30 minutes of pure brilliance.

    What a legend...

    I don't get the connection at all here. Do you know the guy personally? I think that's a bit like saying everyone on this forum should own an Aston Martin DB6 because it's a classics forum.

    I'm talking about the guy's 'looks', the dreadlocks and bob marley hat - he LOOKS like the 'activists' who usually turn up to stop trees being cut down :P
    But like me showing up at a car show in Buddhist orange robes :eek: , LOOKS aren't everything !

    I went to Ag. College in the mid 1980's, and there was a little garage in Birr, where the owner had 3 Porsche 911's hidden away in the back of his shed. On a good day they would be out on the Square where we could slobber over them! Iver in Cavan
