Dave Hillmans passing, I knew Dave well and we chatted lots about life Porsches , people and photography .......we would meet up in London and California
Dave had a motorbike accident Yesterday and I was hoping he would pull though once he got to hospital. But Yesterday he died.
He is a huge if not the single most person that gatherd so many like minded 912 owners
I will miss my friend

Very sad news.
We met once but chatted many times, a true keeper of the faith and instrumental in raising the profile of the 912 we enjoy today.
One of the good guys.
The 912 world will miss one of the best.

Shine on Dave
