# haha.
Does it count if the porsche was a 928 S2 turbo in blue and I never had a brick phone? But my mate did.
I had a Panasonic car phone that they called a 'transportable' on account of you could unplug the handset and take a big pack out of the boot and carry it around like a handbag. It was huge, but there was no such thing as a mobile back then and the only time it was useful on 'portable' mode was when me and my mate were at some function and I got a call saying his mrs had gone into labour.

I ain't never done no Cock-er-knee accent in my life. I'm a norvern lad.

# indeed.
My mate had the big grey brick and made his managers carry them at all times ( which was like show and tell when we went to the pub )
but mine was a genuine car phone that allowed you to dismantle it into a shoulder bag and make calls at about a pound a minute (1987ish )
