All finished and delivered by Alan from Canford Classics...
It's been a long journey from when I first started looking for a car to finally owning my own classic Porsche, but when I found Canford Classics in the autumn of 2009 I knew I'd found the right company. Canford Classics have been nothing but friendly, helpful and absolutely professional to deal with and have really led me through the process of having a car restored and effectively built to my exacting specification.
I'm often not the easiest customer to deal with as I have a real thing for attention to detail, but Canford Classics have really gone above and beyond in their willingness to deliver exactly what I was looking for - including upgrading the specification several times along the way.
Now that I've got the car I'm extremely pleased with the end result and don't think I could have found a better company to complete the job - I can't recommend Canford Classics highly enough!

I'm now thinking about tracking the car at the AutoRevival event at Goodwood in August so that I can have a bit of fun with all that power!

Really great thread Simon, you must be thrilled with the finished car. A real tribute to all involved!

Sat down with a glass of wine and reread this thread from page one. Wonderful ! I often get to thinking how our cars would have looked standing in the showroom, waiting for their first owners to sign on the dotted line and drive them away. I guess this is what you have, with the added advantage of specifying the car to your personal desires, the stuff of which dreams are made.
Such a beautiful car and what a journey, being involved in the build so you know your car inside out is a rare experience... do I sound envious... I am of course, a little..... it makes me wonder how my car would be, given the same Canford treatment. One day prehaps, one day.
Congratulations, this car will undoubtedly bring you great joy. (So much more than an Aston.
) And I look forward to seeing the pair of you, out and about, sooner or later.
Regards, Mike.
