Sad news. One of the real characters of the Porsche world in the '70s and '80s. Between he and Neil they pretty much sewed up the big bhp turbo world of 911s

Was only speaking to him last week as he was test driving one of my 911's just can't believe it.
Bob was one of the nice guys in this business and definitely one of the most knowledgeable .
Very sad news indeed I for one will really miss a true Porsche enthusiast thanks for all you did Bob R.I.P

Went and said goodbye to Bob today at Banbury Crematorium. A good turn out, some very nice touches at the service and some lovely Porsches present along with Bobs Skyline.

RIP mate, your family did you proud.
