My latest acquisition, a 1973 911 2.8 RSR martini!

Factory car, chassis R5. Only 8 cars produced and 3 known in existence today including the one at the museum.

This is fantastic and I am privileged. The car won the concours d'elegance at Rennsport 4 this summer.

It's been signed by the pilots who raced it in the 70s inside the front bonnet and Norbert Singer, head engineer of Porsche Motorsport.

After several years in the US (many thanks to its previous owner Brad Hook for great transaction, a true petrolhead), R5 is back in Europe and I intend to race it in as many events as possible.

Car has been fully restaured by Kevin Janette from Gunnar Racing in the US to concours specs, the level of attention to details is sick.

It arrived in the UK yesterday, here are a few pics.
