Hi all,
I' like to introduce myself as a new forum member. For a few months, I've been thinking about purchaseing a vintage 911 (late '60s - early 70's).
After spending countless hours on a range of European websites, I've narrowed my choice down to two cars.
Unfortunately, I'm not hindered by any technical knowledge about cars so, despite all the well ment buyer's guides, it's gonna be a step in the dark to some extent. Can you guys have a look at below links and see if there's any obvious reason so as not to buy either of them? Both of them have some mods, altough they seem to have changed the car for the better.
Your advice is greatly appreciated!

This Swedish ad explains it's a European 911E 2.2l (155hp) from '71 with S-trim and S front brakes that's just finished renovation, had engine serviced and carburettors renewed this year and has got 104k miles. The engine was renovated in 2002. Asking £14.500

This one - in a splendid color - is an ex USA 911T with an enhanced 911E engine (as above) from '70 with an unknown number of miles going for £17.000
Thanks a million,
Dries
By the way, what is it that people don't like about Californian import cars??
