Surprised it took so long to find a buyer - I’ve got a couple of days off early Aug ... 🤔

Think the price dropped quite a bit from last year plus the logistics of getting it from Paris. Only so many nutters like me about. 

Mate, we should deffo go for a drive in August. I'm not saying I can keep up but the odds are better 😂

Having been in touch with Haith for a bit now this is no surprise.  We have swapped lots of PMs and hopefully I have given a good steer on why it's great car.  Personally, I couldn't be happier that the car is back in the UK with a clearly enthusiastic owner and that it is lined up for next year's trip :)

BB congrats, this has made my day!! I'm so glad that Richards old car has gone to a good home AND within the IB fraternity. It's been the most influence in my current build :D :D

Thanks so much for your help and advice Richard. Invaluable. The car is a credit to you. Took a friend out for a spin this morning and we both came back grinning like Cheshire cats. What 911’s are all about! Besotted with the car already. Looking forward to meeting you and having a beer or two 👍

Thanks mate. It’s truly a stunning car and I’ll cherish it, spoil it and give it a good thrashing occasionally 👍👍👍

What back box is the car running now? Is it still married up to a set of TT headers? 

Im thinking of getting a new sports box :)

Same TT system with the mini heat exchangers RB put on her. Twin out box. Sounds epic Mark. Even at tick over! Lol. Found this clip on YouTube

So fellas. I am Spartacus!
After looking at this car last year when Alex first put it up for sale, this time round I thought what the hell. Only live once. I'm the new owner of RB's old car.
Flew to Paris Saturday morning in sweltering heat, met Alex, test drive, concluded the deal and drove her back to Wales. Left home 6am, arrived back home at nearly 2am. Motorway in France perfect, here, closures, delays, jams. C'est la vie. 
What a machine! Still pinching myself as she sounds so damn good and goes round corners so damn well. As you know, I have to name my cars. It's a tradition. Pet name is Daisy Duke ([emoji849]) but I like calling her ASBO. 
First impression is she's in a different performance and handling league from my stock IB's. Thanks Richard. Sounds incredible. Raw! That's probably the best word to describe her. It just wants to rev and it digs in in the corners. Richard tells me its the diff that makes it handle so well. Well it goes round corners well alright! lol 
First step is to get a full service done and some new tyres. Then I want to learn how to drive this machine. It's going to be a blast! 
 
Bloody hell Haith - I was reading about that French British fellas full on love story then bish bash bosh - the cars for sale, he was a fine story teller for sure.
I was in Llandovery last Sunday shoulda coulda had a coffee and look see - let's catchup before the nights draw in.
Nice toy

Good work Haith, lots of fun times ahead in that car & nice to have it back in the UK.

Hope it hasn't picked up a silly accent after its extended holiday!

Thanks Alex. Few days in and I’m loving it already. Listen very carefully, I will say this only once 🇫🇷 😂
