    Did you expect anything less from Jez?

    Jez told us the following,

    ‘Unfortunately, I’ve had the pleasure of Old Salty’s company for only
    two very short hours; I flew to Washington State earlier this year to
    try-and-buy, had a ten minute drive and an hour of poker-faced
    haggling, before doing the deal and flying back home.
    He’s a ‘56 that started life in Wolfsburg in ‘55, before being carted
    over to be finished in the newly-opened Hanover factory in ‘56.
    He’s just arrived in Sydney’s docks where I exported him to, ready to
    be turned into a mobile shop by the time I emigrate over to those
    fine shores next year.
    Here he is at one of only two shows that the previous owner has taken
    him to for the entire time of his ownership; that’s 400 miles a year
    total!
    He’s straight as can be, and ready for some Porsche, IRS, and
    tasteful meddling! Can’t wait to cruise to the beach in
    him……every weekend’

    How jealous are you now? We know we are.
