Ben filmed a whole video with a sticker on his arm. That's the most dad thing ever.

@dadcars Год назад

Lol I didn’t even notice until I started the edit 😅

@peakhour Год назад

proud owner of a '93 968. Also have kids, but this car's just for me. I'd never daily drive it, but great fun now and then. Handling is unreal.

@dadcars Год назад

I took it for a blast on my own after filming this and it was glorious 🙌

@DavidMorley Год назад

I bought my 968 and squeezed my kids in the back no problem. Even smaller teens fit. Just. More importantly, the hatchback design makes it super practical. Lovely cars.

@dadcars Год назад

The boot is massive isn’t it!

@patrickfarrell4751 10 месяцев назад

I've had mine (sport model) 23 years...NEVER EVER selling it! Quite simply a great car

@MichaelTroyMooney Год назад

So it can/has been a family car. My dad owned one new in 1994 and my sister and I fit very nicely in the back (as 8 and 5 year olds) but we didn't have child seats in those days for that age. That said, it was the only car we ever wanted to travel in :)

@dadcars Год назад

That’s awesome thanks for sharing! You must have some awesome memories 😊

@user-fo9gh5tp3m Год назад

Alwaysa wanted to see someone check out youngtimers looking at things like fitting child seats. Considering a 968 with kids at home after getting rid of my lowered vintage Saab 900. Great video and channel idea. Thanks!

@bigbadgaz1 Год назад

Ive owned my '93 968 for about 18 months now, not a daily but i get a lot of joy from driving it. Im 6'3" but still had the issue with the visor, i replaced the hinge part for a new one (about £15) and now it doesnt droop so far. The 4 pot 3.0 is a big surprise feeling more like a 6 cyl in how torquey and smooth it is but once it hits about 4k rpm, it takes off.

@dadcars Год назад

I agree the engine is a pleasant surprise! 🙌

@robc8892 Год назад

Such a cool car in a great colour

@dadcars Год назад

I agree! 👏

@8359s Год назад

Sorry for spamming, interesting channel, I'm dad myself(2 kids) so actually I am interested in your perspective. Thank for the video.

@dadcars Год назад

Thanks for the childseat suggestion I’ll check it out, I’d like to try a 944 at some point and the 4 seat lotus’s look to have similar strange style rear seats so will need some more options for sure 🫡 I’ve done loads of other cool Dadcars, hope you enjoy the channel 😊

@Hali88 Год назад

Respect for driving 2 kids in it! Were they comfortable enough on the long journey? My daughter complains about anything more than a 10minute drive lol and that's in a reasonably modern, reasonably practical and non-sporty car!

@dadcars Год назад

Considering they were in this car for around 10 hours, they barely moaned really! No more so than If they were at home 😅 I think they are used to it now as we’re filming Dadcars reviews every week and often have to drive a few hours to the car. Some of the best conversations I’ve had with them has been on a long drive back from a filming day 🥲

@8359s Год назад

Oh regarding the sun visor, it can be fixed so it's not floppy, you wouldn't touch it with your head then. It's actually easy fix by yourself ;)

@dadcars Год назад

Yeah James said that when I mentioned it 😅 I did feel really far forward in this though, Shetland pony legs 🙈

@paulcrisostomo5945 Год назад

I had the same visor problem on my 87 944. Hit my head all the time. Wish I knew!

@deaks25 Год назад

Classic Car ownership is always something that I see as requiring a bit of compromise. The repayment is having something genuinely special. And just like general classic ownership, I think the appeal of a Classic Car as a DadCar will vary from person to person based on the compromise/reward balance. I always chuckle when Ben talks about a harsh ride on a car and then we see a child is completely spark out asleep...

@dadcars Год назад

So true! Mine are so used to it now they can sleep through anything 😅

@FRFRANKIE Год назад

Hi Ben. Hope your doing good. That is one cool Porsche. It reminds me a little bit of my Mom's Porsche 928 she used to have and sold to my Aunt. I love the simple uncomplicated dash/gauge layout. You can actually read it. One cool video, love the color of that Porsche. Take care and stay safe.

@dadcars Год назад

Thanks Frank! What a cool mum! I look forward to feature my first proper MumCar! 😎

@FRFRANKIE Год назад

@@dadcars Your welcome Ben. That sounds cool.

@Boothsmotors Год назад

I’ve ended up here from jayemm’s videos, classic car ownership can be very rewarding, I’ve had 2 944’s very similar cars underneath! I’ve always found them a little ‘boaty’ more of a gt cruiser that you could do lots of miles in vs a second car toy for the weekend.

@dadcars Год назад

Yeah they’re no lotus, much more comfortable on a long run though 😅

@Birmingham_racing Год назад

Always wondered why this didn't win family car of the year haha

@dadcars Год назад

I can’t wait to drive some of the old 4 seat lotus’s but I suspect it’ll be a similar story 🙈

@STRmw2 Год назад

Just got my g series 911 - I could daily it but I look forward to the weekend drives more if I don't use it all the time.

@dadcars Год назад

I think you hit the nail on the head there, having one as a weekend car gives you that contrast whenever you want and it’s magical 👏😎

@trevormacdougall9385 Год назад

Lovely video and review mate. Cheers from 968 owner in Canada!

@dadcars Год назад

Awesome! Thanks Trevor, we drove across Canada when our first was only 5 months old and we all loved it 😊

@8359s Год назад

Dude you can climb into the trunk, I've been there few times, even rode there this year trying to identify annoying sound :D.

@dadcars Год назад

Felt like there were hollow sections to it though, didn’t want to damage it 😊 guessing the spare wheel is under it? Lol rode in the back 🙈😅

@8359s Год назад

@@dadcars Just joking, I understand, I would want to break my friends car too. Yes, there was annoying sound from one of the rear hatch claws, but not because the hatch was loose(usual reason) but because claws themselves have some play from being worned out in my S2. There are some child seats that fit in the back, one is Cybex Juno-fix, but in my case it's even worse than in 968 because I just have lap belts in the back.

@jimmcgrath2849 Год назад

I had no idea the lights popped up

@dadcars Год назад

You love pop up lights 😎

@natdenchfield8061 5 месяцев назад

Funny, RU-vid suggests vids from JayEm talking about his ownership of the can and driving up to Scotland ... Did he leave it up there (didn't think he was Scotland based)?

@joeylopezphd 8 месяцев назад

Fun video! Check out the last couple videos I made. Not the same but very similar. My kid fits in both cars nicely. My brother owned an 86 944 and a 92 968, both of which he would let me drive in college. They are amazing cars. Don’t sell the 968, we regretted it, it looks so timeless!

@KwakaRallye88 11 месяцев назад

Loved my 968. Ulez has unfortunately made these 90s cars unaffordable in London

@dadcars 11 месяцев назад

It’s so sad isn’t it 😔

@leonlee7292 7 месяцев назад

@dadcars - just for reference what is your height?

@dadcars 7 месяцев назад

5 11 but long body short legs

@TheGutz430 3 месяца назад

Fun review but come on, pretty ridiculous premise. No parent is buying a 968 as a daily family car. So you kinda wasted our time. We’re here for the car not the practicality 😂😂😂

@user-fo9gh5tp3m Год назад

@dadcars Год назад

Thanks man! This is why I started the channel 🙌 as a father of 4 all of these cars I feature are cars I’ve wanted but I’m proving it’s never too late! In fact having them when you can make memories with your children makes it all the more worthwhile
