Thanks, Nader. Our move is to the Netherlands, where it's possible but not common to have a garage and very unlikely to be able to work on the car. I see karting in my future.

Love the Netherlands, pretty much 90% or more speak very good English and often fluently in a couple other languages, food choices are great. Yup garages are not very likely, but take the car out to Zandvoort can probably pay some Euros and drive around!! If you sell the car there when done, probably more than pay for the trip!! I believe BAT has an office in Zandvoort near Amsterdam and Haarlem.

The card says:
"In 1976 the Belgian Gendarmerie ordered twenty 911 Targa models with a narrow body. Equipped with the byper modern 210 bhp Carrera RS engine, with their own chassis number sequence, making it unique. Special equipment, apart from the flashing light and siren, was a CD radio and a Stop signal. Due to the car's power the officers were required to follow a driving course, nonetheless there were a few serious accidents. Today there are but two of these models still registered."

Taken at Autoworld Brussels earlier this year.

John, it'll be all bikes all the time - for the first time in 40+ years I expect not to own any cars...

It's ironic you won't have the Eurovan when living in Europe

ikr? No garage + $9-10/gallon for gas makes the idea much less appealing, though.
