The seller said that it belonged to a snooker player, but had no provenance.  It wasn’t a great car, to be honest, so obviously I did not buy it.  As far as I can remember, it was up north somewhere – Leeds, Rotherham, Doncaster – somewhere like that.

Years ago Matt Harvey had a 928 that was connected with Steve Davis...... either he sold him one, or to Steve Davis' brother, or possibly Matt bought one from one of them.  I can ask him.  I think it was a white S4 (or that may be the one Matt sold to Joel Hopwood? !! )    I'll ask Matt.
