Hello.

At least you've lots of places to buy parts in the UK. Wasn't something I considered before moving to Spain. Everything is so expensive over here! Will have bits sent over by courier I think.

Still at least the weather's good! Though it's currently raining it's a relief after all the heat.

Have seen a 911 over here and a Cayene (spelling?) but not a single 924.

well our 931 project is up the road from you near East Midlands Airport, and hopefully (as it nearly passed the MOT yesterday) you'll see it hooning around with my bro behind the wheel as he lives that way! - If you see a light blue metallic 924 turbo you'll know its him, can't be that many more on the road in the area!!
