Is your full name Matt Leblanc and did you 'own' a Porsche before?

Good to see it being looked after in these cold months ;)

Surely a Quattro Audi should be driven in the winter, and be garaged in the summer?

Maybe, but as I had all the springs and rear upper suspension arms re-powdercoated last spring, I'm quite happy to baby it a little now.

I assume this is a reference to Top Gear? I'm afraid I don't watch it, so the joke is wasted on me.

:) I'd forgotten about that scene. What an awesome series. Still makes me laugh. I've been on the set and was in the audience for the shooting of one of the episodes.

It’s a C6 cover I think, but the fit is perfect. Found it online a couple of years back.
