Wednesday 6th April.
On a days trip from Southampton to Somerset driving my old XJS when I closed in on a very nice looking Green ( viper I think ) Porsche 914. Shame I was driving so I couldn't get a picture, but it looked lovely in the early April sun !
Stopped for a road side coffee ( as you do ) in the high street in Wells and thought I could hear the distant sound of something air cooled approaching.
And IT rumbled past
I nearly spat my coffee over some noisy French schoolkid tourists !
Where's the camera !
Bugger - Missed it !
Walked a bit further down the street and look whats parked up.
Now I don't usually like classics that have been tampered with too much but -------
This thing had wildly negative camber on the back wheels and fantastic deep metallic candyapple bronze paint.
Stunning
