Lovely car, i remember seeing it at silverstone, good to know its being used well, I often wonder where my old cars have ended up.

Is this your old car?

Dare I ask why you let it go!

Hi Jon, good to hear from you

I remember your car well. Loved it when black and ratty and remember well talking about your engine at the 912 Andy Prill day. Scary how time has flown!

Never did see it following its respray but good I see its enjoying its new life.

Jon's old car is in this pic from 912 day at Andy Prills back in 2003
Was wondering how many of these cars are still with the same owners and if not where are they now?
