    Watching this series with interest. Great to see Steve from Jaz doing some social media at last. Have known Steve for 25 years, one of the UK’s most knowledgeable and honest Porsche people.

      You're absolutely right. Very modest for a man of such immense knowledge.

    Let the person you are interviewing speak. You can edit later.

      Thanks for the advice. These videos are very much a work in progress and not planned or rehearsed so a case of trying to steer a conversation to a degree.

    Really enjoyed this video. Look forward to seeing more content on the rs. Pls also do a comparison review with regular C2 if at all possible!

    This chap ,I visited when he had hair on his head in the late 90's to confirm a engine he had supposedly built on a 911 turbo Bodied Targa .Which he had and he offered to buy the car, If I want to sell it .Proper built car that I kept for 10 years and sold it for more than I paid for it. Was still running like new when I sold it.

    I like the video. You need to not speak so much when Steve speaks. no need to talk over or interupt Steve when he's giving good information.

      Thanks for that really great advice. These are filmed ad hoc and they do need steering to make sure we end up with a usable and interesting video.

    Thanks for another great video Henry. I bought my current car from 911V and Jaz look after it - impeccable service from both companies and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Loving these video's - keep up the great work!

    Enjoyed that, looking forward to the strip down and details of the internals. Guess I’ve been lucky with my OPC as I have been introduced to the tech guys so know them and a visit to the workshop isn’t unusual. A good salesman makes all this work for customers.

    • @911virgin8
      @911virgin8  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The next video with Steve should be very informative, we'll talk a bit about air cooled 911 engines in general as well as discussing the 964 engine specifically. It will depend a bit on what we find when we get in there.

    Steve’s toward facilitating customer engagement is great! The independent Porsche shop that keeps my car running is that way also. It makes such a difference.

    Another great video Henry and I love the way you introduce other related business owners like Steve and allow them time to talk about what they do. I’ve happily used JAZ and Steve myself. Great story with this car series 👍

      The whole process is going to be a team effort and I'm enjoying the journey. It's like a trip down memory lane for us all. As we start to strip the engine down I suspect you will see Steve's knowledge coming to the fore.
