Nope, defo not the other Mint!
Just time for a change.
In a sense, mission accomplished.
The car is a far better car now than it was when I bought it ...
And, at least now everybody knows what it is.
I'm sure the history can be fleshed out even more, but there is no longer any question of the development Logbook belonging to the car (rather than an aberration of Porsche forgetfulness which may have been reclaimed) --- and it being original panels etc --- it was a very big risk to take it even sedately around track days.
And I now own the learning that I have gained over the ownership experience --- it's time for somebody else to have that same pleasure []
Some of you seem to know a lot more of the history and on a personal level I suspect - could you advise?
many thanks............
And the proof that the Drivers Log was sold with the car, and now legitimately belongs with it.
In the wrong hands in 1996, this could have been dynamite.
But now somebody elses story to tell []
Fred Hampton (who purchased the car from Stuttgart) thought it the earliest chassis number he had come across in either RHD or LHD and who am I to say he's wrong? The car was road registered 4 months before the public launch.
Awesome car with amazing back up documentation (many thanks Chris for all that hard work and hope that that you spend the outrageous funds wisely!!).
I'm a lucky guy. in addition to the LHD RS, I also have a '66 SWB (historic rally spec), a '72 S, an '87 3.2 and I drive them all.
I'm racing a Caterham again this season but obviously will have to race a Porsche next year!
I hope to introduce myself at some PCGB event soon.
