Took the Rep out for a run round the Ards Peninsula to try out my CDI+ install. Empty roads so a fun drive

Contemplated taking the orange T to Curborough today, with both windscreens out. I THINK it would just about legal... then I remembered half the floor is missing. Image

996 battery was flat so I've had it on charge all morning... only the charger was switched off. Image

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Yesterday I picked the early car up from In The Detail, a local detailing shop. Rich the owner really has done a stunning job of it.
Shame to get it dirty.

Yes, fine - was knackered after Saturday and forecast wasn't great. As it turns out the rain mostly stayed away...
