Yes Hi Steve, been quite a bit of chat about it as it has a healthy reserve for what seems like a pretty non-original high mileage
car. The blurb has the typical auction house over the top spin on it which will make you laugh, it just illustrates that it's been
abused and has a lot of wrong parts so you're looking at a very expensive restoration. Nice colour on an early 911, but not a
Ferrari though.
A more interesting car for sale at the moment with a UK dealer I've not heard of before is this not so rare lhd one, I haven't
seen it but looks ok from the pictures, so it should be at the £130,000 asking price.....

Will Stone was with Fiskens (almost bought a Mystral Spyder from him but he would only give me £20k for my 330!) Looks to have set up on his own.

Always a worry when the MOT man laughs when he looks under your car!

Your car looks brand new, Mike. I'm sure there's not too much for them (or you) to worry about.

Track rod ends too much play, rot in the sills, failed the emission test and of course the obligatory misaligned high beam?
Maybe not then?

I'm amazed he's managing to lift the car up with that tyre iron

I can't believe the last time I posted a picture of the Vetro was from last years MOT, and here I am just getting it out of hibernation ready for this years test!
I've been away a lot this year so only out the bubble yesterday for the first time in 6 months, I'd forgotten what a beautiful car these are.
Really pleased with the Cair-O-Port, only needed the small one and a perfect fit, great to use with the opening end and sides for access when you need it.
Had to take a picture to celebrate it being outside!

ha, you boys
There was a new book out earlier this year celebrating the 308, 328 and for some reason the 348. Mine was lucky enough
to be extensively featured by Robert Foskett in his hardback tome, thanks for that! ISBN 978-1-84797-885-1
