    Also, as part of my negotiations with Porsche, they obviously thoroughly tested the car, however I had to do all required work on the car (elsewhere) to get it to the standard that they required. Porsche didn't want to do any work themselves. In the end, a small leak on the oil gauge and re-gluing a small section of the driver's side door pocket (otherwise good condition) were the only requirements. I also detailed the car myself (took me 2 days!) and I understand no other work was done prior to it being shown. Paint, trim, etc is how I presented it to them - as I've seen the car on the tour.

    Here's a link to the F1 website, featuring pics of Vettel and the 901. http://www.formula1.com/gallery/race...al/sunday.html
