Top Trumps, 1976
I was 10 years old in 1976, and we used to play Top Trumps in the school playground. My favourite pack contained a picture of a Porsche Carrera, and I was instantly smitten. I was reminded of this writing another post yesterday when I mentioned that I always preferred the Porsche to the Countach - it was from that pack.
So tonight, 2 months into my 4 or 5 month wait for my first Porsche (the GTS), I went onto eBay and found the very card that I remember so well from 35 years ago. (First time on ebay too... ). It was like finding an old friend.
So this is, in a way, my very first Porsche. $3.99 from eBay, plus postage.
It will come with me in November to the Porsche Centre and I'll pop it in the sun visor where it will stay.
