Is there an endless supply of Surf Blue mk1s out there?, it must have been a very popular colour choice when new.

Its re-shelled, to be fair seller does say in his advert.....so in reality you are buying........a 997 chassis number and a random rotten shell.....how tenuous, can it get ?

See what I mean, they must be breeding them. So common, think I'll paint mine red, with maybe a white roof for exclusivity 🤔
