Whenever you're doing a task for the first time, it is bound to take several times longer due to a lack of experience with procedure and form.

We've had this old 1976 Porsche 912E kicking around the garage for about five years, and mostly we've just been enjoying the experience of driving it.

In his words; "I was a motoring journalist for about two weeks, and had a healthy skepticism when it came to Porsche 911s."
