That's right, I thought he looked familiar and the name rang a bell too!

Respect! 1,000,000 Porsche miles. Wow...
I'm at 50,000 miles.
At the very least I'm glad my Porsche odometer has started...I hope to add a couple hundred miles this weekend!

Frank,
How's the car...post a random picture at the very least!!

...and as if by magic - cover feature in Porsche Post which landed on the mat today, sat atop a big Viper Geen tractor. How do these newspapers find their stories??

Just popped in to say I love this car.

Do I see you're in film too? Can't help noticing your office...

Nice pics Frank, didn't get to Skye myself, but Scotland is so picturesque.

I like the wistful looking pic, where you're atop the rocks....

....and the last one where you look like you've just been caught doing something questionable!

Love the pics mate... you need to wear some better shoes for BB though.. those boots can't be the ultimate for feel and control...!

Also, hate to say it but I prefer BB with the Veloces.. as per these pics.. looks pretty awsome. Paint the centres Black leaving just the silver rim and it would be simply amazing... I'm saving for some Fuchs...

Cheers mate. How's The Hornet doing? What's the diagnosis in the end?

Yup the boots come off on track.
Nah, black centres would make them look like Fuchs. Personally not a fan of them or duck tails on our gen cars.

No driving or crane. Osmosis. Originally the car was under the rocks deep in the ground, through osmosis it came through a top.
