I was going to post a bit on here before the magazine went to print however Christmas got in the way I never got round to it!

You can read the article (full magazine) here:

http://magazinelib.com/all/ultimate-por ... uary-2018/

I would have posted the feature up but me and technology don't really go hand in hand!

As for how the article came about, I was contacted by Dan the editor via Instagram. He had spotted a couple of pictures of my car & got in touch asking a few questions and put forward the idea of a magazine feature.
I'd never read the magazine before so was unsure as to what they'd be looking for however he seemed keen & got a local photographer to contact me for the shoot. We arranged the 1st of December (bright blue skies but -8 most of the day!) at Knockhill racing circuit. Four hours of picture taking & the car being moved a few feet at a time for different shots and the photographer was happy he had enough (350+ pictures!).

A couple of days later the writer gave me a phonecall and chatted away about the car & previously owned Porsches. I was under the impression he would email me his piece to allow me to give it the once over before print.... No! Some of what I said was printed & factually true & the rest made up!

At least the pictures look good though & it helps promote 968s too :D
