    A sad day to report on

    Last Monday I delivered my 2.2 S to Autohaus Hamilton for sale consignment after 10 years 3 months ownership.
    As some of you know,I have bought a 914-6 from deepest darkest Texas which is due to arrive Feb 4.
    Unfortunately,as I have only one garage and one even skinnier budget,so one must go !
    Scott has a good writeup on their site so have a look see there.
    I have done what I have wanted to do with the 2.2 S and driven where I have wanted to go.
    So maybe there is also an element of the 'seven year itch' involved.
    Over the years,I have had a number of Porsches (and others) in my 'Lotto Garage'
    I am now able to tick off three - 1975 Carrera 2.7,1971 2.2 S and now a 1970 914-6.
    I have had the 914-6 in the LG since 10 Sept 1969 so its about time !

    Cheers,
    Dennis.

    1970 914-6 - materialised from the 'Lotto' garage into reality
    1971 2.2 911 S - now back in the UK - sob!
    1975 Carrera Targa (ROW) - missed.
    One of us is fast becoming a valuable antique.

    Best of luck with sale Dennis. It's a great car and should find a new home quickly.

    I'm sure you're sad to see it go, but the 914-6 will be fantastic (I've always wanted one!) and perhaps it was time for a change.
