Re: Classic LeMans Blog
I went to Porsche Classic stand. It's not easy to find the right oil on French motorways, so I was pleased to see they had their new oil on display, and it had the price on shown right by it.

So I asked for a tin. Much confusion. Sorry sir but we're not actually selling it here. I explained I was running low and couldn't find good oil. We all laughed about it in embarrassment. So then he reached beneath the counter, and gave me this. It'll be cool for the 356. Result.

Mixed weather. After downfalls on Saturday morning it got out but this morning we had torrential rain for a long spell and a few pussys including me have pressed onto Rouen
