January 2013

January has arrived, and along with it a new year! We hope you all had enjoyable Christmas and New Year celebrations, and like us you're already looking forward to a new year of Porsche enthusiasm. There's been a few more great Porsche videos and pictures uploaded over the holidays. Plus, we've also created another Porsche Quiz as well as a new Porsche Trivia section. Finally, thank you to everyone who has written in to say how much they enjoy our monthly newsletter!

This month's "Porsche on the Cover" is lpellecc's fabulous Porsche 997 GT3.


Restoring a Porsche 911 SC Targa

Our very own Porschris has uploaded a restoration video of a 911 SC Targa. It took him three months and 300 hours to complete the SC's transformation. The end result speaks for itself. This is definitely worth a watch and serves to illustrate the work that goes into restoring an old 911 properly.


Porsche Trivia?

Porsche have had a long history full of remarkable achievements, so it stands to reason that there are a few facts and figures that the average Porsche enthusiast may not know. We have trawled through the Porsche archives to tease out some of the interesting bits that you might not know.

The Porsche 356 Quiz

The Porsche 356 is probably one of the most enduring cars from Porsche's history. As the first road going Porsche it's the car that started it all. We've added a new challenge to the Channel P101tv Quiz area to test your knowledge on the Porsche 356. Take the quiz and compare your scores to others who have taken the challenge before you.


What About Tyre Pressures

We have been playing around with tyre pressures recently and got us thinking about how little emphasis we pay to tyre pressures compared to all the other performance enhancements we undertake for our beloved Porsches. So having done some research here's a few pointers for getting our tyre pressures right.


Pimp Up Your Browser Porsche Style

We all spend many hours each week in front of our computers browsing the web. So, rather than looking at the same old bland web browser colour scheme, we thought we'd create something a little more interesting to look at. As you'd probably guess, our themes are all Porsche related! The themes, or Personas, are compatible with the Firefox web browser. If there's a theme you'd like to suggest, feel free to get in touch and we'll do our best to create it.


Discover Amazing Porsche Videos

Our Channels make it easier to find the Porsche stuff that takes your interest. Explore our channels to discover great Porsche content, fellow Porsche enthusiasts and more. Simply pick a channel and watch what you want, when you want.


And finally......Did you Know?

Once you have uploaded videos or pictures to P101tv, you can display them on many other websites without the need to upload them each time. If you look in the column to the right of any video or picture you'll see a section entitled "Add Video/Picture to your Blog". Just copy the "Embed Code" and paste it into a blog, or forum or your own website.

We have a growing help section on P101tv to help you make the most of the web site. It's constantly growing so check it from time-to-time
