Got my car back and the sun is shining!
Well, for some of the journey home at least! But after a week of cadging lifts and borrowing moderns while the MoT was being sorted, it was so nice to get back in the 912 and chuck her around the twisties once off of the motorway!

And of course, I owe it all to you Max (Revival), otherwise it would still be a failure sat on the driveway!

Ian - when/where is that? If I am able then I'd love to come along and do some kind of write-up.
Helen - the decals on the side are already on the car, although the Gulf stickers have been taken off a long time ago. I considered taking the white decals off when I first got the car but I think they're pretty period - what do you think?

Of course - Hedingham Castle. Yep, trying my best to be there and there will of course be a write-up in the mag. Looking forward to it seeing as it will be my first Porsche event!
