I thought the black 911 in that farm at the start looked stunning really lovely.
Not sure which model exactly but it's old and think its the same as the one they are restoring.

Enjoyed the old 911 films but the rest is ste! Bernie would be head butting a hammer if he was working with me. That stupid voice was irritating on the show where he worked with Lepu, he hasn't got any better.
How much pudding is in this thing anyway? And yes rotor arms rotate at 1/2 engine speed.

They haven't a clue! First it's cut & shut, then an accident repair, and probably just a scuttle repair.
It's got the wrong bumpers (front and rear), a later 3.2 engine, a whale tail, and gods knows what else. £22k apparently.

Not an original colour, not the right front bumper, whale tail added. There is no way they did the restoration for the price quoted... However I'd buy it for 22k ( as valued) for a bare metal restore in my second favourite colour - orange thumbup

Get rid of the whale tail and non-standard bumper and it would be near perfect.

2 years ago I texted the same 81555 competition number on the Gadget Show. From the very next day I received LOADS of spam to my mobile. I believe Ch5 sell the numbers on to 'less reputable' companies. Never again. :-/

Apart from the backdated rear end, and that its a LHD conversion of course...
