Derek Bell, Porsche Hero: 911 & Porsche World teaser

January 7, 2010

This month’s 911 and Porsche World magazine features another Glynn/Lipman UK classic: a piece on Derek Bell and his 928 Club Sport.

Camera update: Gripping Stuff

August 24, 2009

I’ve been using my Leica D-Lux 4 compact camera for about 5 months now. It’s a great tool and perfect for almost every situation.
