Just noticed Darren's box is # 326 and was built about 2 years ago?
My last box to be done by mike was freshly numbered 251 iirc and that was 4 years ago so that is a big heap of gearbox re-builds in 2 years!

Nick Kyte of Retro Refinishers has painted two 911s from bare metal for me and did some paint improvements on my 993. Excellent quality work.

In fact given my expenditure on engine parts this week you would be buying the food. Just remembered you owe me a jumbo sausage sandwich and a mug of tea.
