Congratulations Andy. For me, your car was the star of the auction.

It did well. Prices for the other cars were pretty average, except for the 964 Turbo 3.6 @ £196k + premium :shock:

Took it to the garage for a bit of winter work namely oil leaks, we have 3 at the last count and a bit of detailing to the engine bay.

Started up my 356. Drove for about 1 mile and put back into the garage. Then I recharged the battery overnight. I've started to make plans to rust proof the underside of the car.

I replaced the split/eviscerated standard silencer with a Dansk sports unit. No Goodwood trackdays for me.....
