Indeed. I think that event may well be the first Porsche Picnic in Reading. Keith will recall. Or will he?

It was and Lucky won an award that got Charlotte a Meguires cleaning kit that we still have.

Christophe, since Ian claims it was originally metallic blue that would be a fairly rare colour perhaps deserving of returning to. Can you tell me the paint code stamped on the badge (left door hingepost). Christophe - there certainly used to be a few traces of the original colour under the other l...

Hope you and yours are all well.

Hi Mike - I still lurk from time to time in the restorations section; Mr Lipman's thread always being an entertaining read.

We're all well - now with four children too!

Still one of my favourite drives - the trip down (& back) to CLM 2006 in the company of several other DDK cars/drivers including some pretty impressive (bare-footed) driving by Charlotte in this car (when it was still only 2.0 litre) ... :wink: It wasn't a 2.0 though Andy - the tear-down by Mik...

Charlotte's car was the first short wheelbase car I ever saw, with cream upholstery if I remember correctly ? Aga blue ? I thought the car was Albert Blue but either way the contrast of the outside with the inside was really very nice, a really lovely car. I know lots of folk here on DDk will remem...

I've loved reading every bit of this Jamie and then seeing your final image (for now), made me smile more than the rest of the thread. A brilliant start to the rest of your journey

Please promise you'll never give up on this one Jamie - reading your musings as you continue on your journey is something I look forward to and as Darren says, that image down the side of your car looks sharp. Really sharp.

The car looks great in beige too!

Too nice to be a daily drive though James - looks lovely

Mr Lipman, Sir, you are from a different planet!

I've been 'lurking' for a while and reading this daily Mark - enjoy your 'new' car; it's brilliant what you've achieved and I'm sure it will continue to give you many, many more years service.

... and is it stiff enough for you now

Well done John!

The Innovate wideband O2 sensor kits are £124 on eBay from lots of sources, so you could have yourself £30 or so here too. Just sold most of my stuff; didn't think MS was the way you were planning to go when I listed it.

I have a complete EDIS-6 (trigger wheel, VR sensor, coil pack and ECU + tails) kit if you'd like to save yourself say £25 on this bit? I also have a second EDIS-6 brain for if you ever went twin spark

I drive through the Midlands every week too if speed if of the essence.
