As above, one of my favorite cars this was my first 911 a lovely original example, in the very scarce color option of black Mettalic with black leather, air con and a sunroof, that had been delivered new to California.
It's previous owner had come to London with his partner in circa 2002 and bought it with him!

One night in early 2003, some yobs broke into it and draped the front luggage carpet over the front wings and set it alight. Fire brigade arived quickly and fortuneatly the damage was mainly to the front wings and part of a door.
I removed the front wings and had them re painted ( was shocked to find a small patch of rot on the top wing mounting near the scuttle which I repaired with my Mig.

I ran her around for a fantastic few months then for some reason decided to sell. A young guy from Norfolk bought her and said he would totally re paint her. He rang a few months later saying that he had re painted, but it was sat in his garage and he wasn't using it. I said I would buy it back, but then I lost his number.

Some time ago I looked on the dvla site and they had it down as being exported, however when I looked the other day, the " Export section has been removed ?? !
