Hi Everyone my name is Sean Davis from Kent. I have recently bought a 1959 356a from PRS Services. You can follow my exploits with the car in GT Porsche Magazine starting Sept Issue 2010 Page 102 / 103. My other vehicles include a 1960 Jag Mk2 (owned 5 years) - 1961 Lambretta Li 125 (owned 15 years) - 1956 Lambretta LD 125 unrestored (owned 1 year) - 1960 Vespa GS (owned 1 year). All the vehicles are used regularly and have been bought for life.
My company Creative FX wraps vehicles and supplies liveries and badging to the Automotive Industry. Our website is

I have owned a Karmann Ghia in the 1980's but always hankered for a 356.[/img]

The link to
www.heuerheritage.co.uk is my watch site where I have a number of my watches for sale and trade.
Happy to help with sourcing a 70s Monaco (and indeed have one in my collection at the moment) - be careful with Monacos, it's a minefield out there!
Just awaiting arrival of this early Siffert Autavia.

that's a bit better condition than mine - bought this one for £50 with no strap etc many moons ago when looking for an Omega Speedmaster. It's my daily watch and i love it's "patina"....what a great word.

Wabi is a better word when it comes to watches though...

Hi Sean,
Nice to know you have a 59A like mine. I looked at you flicker photos but seem to see a lot vans? I am missing something put it down to being old if I have.
Hope you enjoy your car, you bought it I reckon from the right place!
