Guessing just one of those things . Saying that , there was a guy on 911uk whos almost new GT3 had the rear wheel steer fail catastrophically mid corner on the road so anything can happen

( even had my 4x4 pickup on loosing traction this moring at a junction )
Car didn't have centre locks so don't think it was a GT3

That brings back memories, as the Giroflex car was the first RS I drove.
I was working at Autofarm during uni holidays around then, so was sent to pick it up from the owner for some snagging work following a refurb after that season.

Spotted in Autocar's coverage of the GP ice race - this one looks familiar:

So many questions about that Carrera!
Did the accident make the voltage regulator, 4-cam cooling cowl, Dynamo, Carburettors and Air Filters un-do themselves????
It doesn't matter if you speak your mind, because those that matter don't mind and those that mind don't matter.......!
Lusting after a 30/98, will settle for a 23/60.
