Congrats for this magnificent build! Iwas fortunate to see it at LMC earlier in the summer.
Just a quick confirmation on the campagnolo wheels: did you keep the 28mm spacers at the rear?
How would you say the wheels fit on your 930?
Thanks a lot!

The wheels are 10" and fit fine without the factory spacer, although I have a 5mm spacer fitted.

So it's been a year now since the car went on the road. Just took it for its 2nd MOT this morning, how time flies. Just under 4000 miles done.

You went to a lot of effort to colour match the car to certificate.

Why have you asked another dealer to sell it for you?

Car is long gone now but thanks to my son I now have a superb 1:18 version as a reminder of the great trips I made before it moved to a new owner.
