Following the discussion at tonights Southern Region meeting, here are the pictures.

This lovely 1978 Porsche, styled by Anton Lapine, was the first 928 to reach the UK and is a right hand drive prototype powered by a 4.5 litre V8 and owned by John Vaughan.

Hope you like it.
Nick

Looks fab now - imagine how sensational it looked in 1977!

Porsche GB also used John's car for the Panamera launch (I know which I prefer).
