She's chassis no. 911 360 0496 so a 'first 500' car, although I'm not convinved that matters personally. Registered in Wiltshire she went over to Ireland until 1978 and came back with a dual brake circuit system - so probably saw some competition use.

Brought back into the UK in 1978 and sold to a Mr. Robert Kwok, who owned her until I bought her in 2002. She'd had very little use, with a spedo change at 44,000miles - now showing 13,000ish so believed 57,000 from new. Matching numbers including engine and gearbox with virtually all history from new.

I had her stripped to bare metal and found all the original weld marks from the factory on the rear arches - so no body trauma (phew!). Needed a new NSF wing and OS kidney bowl plus lots of fiddly bits to tidy her up - and she's taken nearly two years to complete to where she is now. Believe it or not there are still jobs to be done!

The only mod from original spec I've done is to fit a pair of genuine original leather recaros in place of the leatherette and cloth ones fitted new.

Oh, and this is no garage dweller - I do drive it hard and regularly as those who came on the DDK Northern Run will testify
