I inspected the car yesterday and it is a little orange unicorn of a car, so I agreed to buy it.

Prior to completion of the sale it will have the originally-supplied M409 Recaros put back in the car instead of the standard ones currently fitted, a full service with everything and anything requiring attention attended to, new Pirelli CN36s all round and the originally-fitted flag door mirror instead of the large Durant mirror currently on the car.

Georg Konradsheim is a pleasure to deal with, extremely honest and straightforward, and clearly cares very much about early 911s - I had to demonstrate that I would be a suitable candidate to be only the 3rd custodian of the car in 50 years and would take appropriate care of it during my ownership!

I am very much looking forward to receiving the car once it is ready to be transported to the UK and shall enjoy driving it on sunny days in the Cotswolds.
