Hello DDKers
We've been lurking here for some time and finally signed up. We've had our '61 B since 2004, formally in NZ and now enjoying the country lanes near Silverstone. We look forward to seeing you at Hedingham Castle and many more events to come.

Here's a brief history of our 356 experience to date...
Originally a Texan, we bought our B in New Zealand in 2004. We went over in 2005 to partake in the Targa Rally:
We went back in 2007 to do that event again, this time without an engine fire:
In 2009 we drove from Bluff, bottom of the South Island and about as far from here as you can get, up to Auckland where we popped her into a container:
In January our boat arrived, so we hauled her home, where she's now enjoying her first English summer:
We've also enjoyed a '90 C4 and a '68 Beetle, but they were just training for the real thing!
