Is it too late to fit another one in please? Very pretty Gulf Blue - sort of early T with a 3.0 litre running Webers (and no heaters so I might need a hot coffee when I get there).

Kind regards,

Bob

Can you give provide directions on how to locate you once we're in Middle Aston or is it quite easy to find?

If there is a space available, I'd very much like to tag along. Not so much bothered about the dyno run, as I ideally like to set off to Cambridge around lunchtime. Helen/ Larry: convoy?
Obviously I will contribute towards to chosen charity.

All the best,

Doh ! After another weekend delving into the depths of the EDIS system
I've put on my 911, I am seemingly unable to cure an intermittent miss fire, so may have to bring the Boxster !
I hope that is OK
