I have got the eMail address of the broker who sold the Speed Yellow one (first four pics in a garage with a 300SL gullwing in the background) and sent him a couple of eMails but he never reacted... As far as the other one concerned (50 SL 76 reg plate), one could suspect I should rather easily find out the VIN (it is in France where I live) but I unfortunately never got the confirmation of the VIN... Still investigating... Will obviously let the community (and Mark) know.

... and I also take this opportunity to add two pics of my car last time I moved it.
I am unfortunately still struggling with the registration procedure. Only two cars were sold new in France in 1992 and I do not have any form of support from the French importer for this - poor - reason. As a matter of fact there is no “official" compliance certificate for this model the French Porsche importer can provide me with and I basically have to go through the compliance procedure alone e.g. prove to French Vehicle Authorities that sound, light, side mirrors vision, brakes etc... of my Turbo S Lightweight are compliant with European and French Regulations. This, I can do having the car checked at special workshops working for French Vehicle Standards and Regulations Authorities. With the workshop certificate (obviously not for free, will cost around 3k Euros) I will go to the Vehicle Registration Service and should (finally !) get French papers for the car and according registration plates… A kind of road to Hell but there is no way for me to bypass this boring system if I want the car to be registered.
This is where I am today… The procedure, I started Q3 2012 and stopped during winter. I will carry on when sunny days will be back (say April / May). My goal is having the car registered for next Summer. As soon as the car will be registered, I will bring it to Porsche Classic in Stuttgart / Germany to have it fully checked.
Will keep you posted.

Anthony,
Thank you for the picture (never seen) and what seems to be a very interesting colour ! Any chance to know where does the picture come from ?! Quite difficult to see on the picture but it seems there is no steering-wheel on the left side... which would suggest it is a RHD car ?!

I still haven't had a chance to check one of my back up hard drives I believe I should have additional photos of turbo S's on that drive. I will post if I find anything. Once I go through everything I will send Mark the pictures.

I agree there appears to be a steering wheel on the right. Unfortunately, as I stated I lifted this from another thread here is the post. I sent the poster a PM we will see if he is willing to divulge any additional info. He claims it is cobalt blue but it seems a bit dark for Cobalt although you can look at my car and never have it look the same twice.

Would be great that poster gets back to you with positive elements... Bringing a new piece to the puzzle (Turbo S Register) always appreciated... and if you find more photos and maybe VINs on you old backup HD even better !
Thank you very much for trying and keeping us posted
