Hold down Alt and key 0189 on the number pad on a Windows keyboard; press and hold the 1 key on an Android keyboard, Apple, who knows....? @rowbos sussed it I think, then disappeared.
Oh, copy and paste works too....
I'm still here. Just less noisy than in the past 🤓
I don't have my iPhone in front of me as I'm mainly Android, but I did find this...

I had this a number of times in the past. When parking my car in the garage I always left the handbrake off...
Quite a scary bang when the brakes stick and release suddenly with a bit of revs!

hahaha
short time?
I've been here 17 years mate! just a bit of a slow starter 😂
Yeah - its actually a 'new' part & came in the official packaging
(another lame attempt to post pics - imagur this time...:)
Irritating scratches, I definitely would not accept that!
-
Absolutely get a refund or replacement. If it were me I'd think about those scratches everytime I looked at the car and regret not sorting it out before fitting.

Possible future Tesla replacement 🤔
It will be interesting to see the real life performance and range figures come out in the next year or so...

Bit more space for overtaking traffic on the bike
And a bit less room for error 😳
Scared the cr*p out of me just watching that!

Welcome, I'm living with a Tesla M3LR as a daily and my 987.2 as fair weather plaything and they work well together for me.
Interested in your story on the EV sub forum...
Photos of your new car will be welcomed... I hope the warm weather holds out for you 😎

Were you on level ground when you measured?

But does the car exist with him?
No idea chap. I've only met him once - at that BBQ a week or so ago...

He definitely exists 🤓
But I don't know if he wants to play...

@Paul P thanks for the tip re Porsche and key fob. Hoping to get there one year in the 986 having been a similar number of times to you in the past, however I end up taking the daily with 2 or 3 mates as I have have had a decent size estate for most of the last several years but I can still take the Porsche key with me....
Yeah I like the Porsche key tip, noted!

@rowbos what's the iOS solution to the ½ character?
I'm Android ... I can use fractions on my Mac quite easily, but iOS 🤔 ... I did find something in the past but not sure what that method was - this is the closest I can find with a quick search...

It's arrived, picked up The Wasp yesterday and spent the afternoon hooning around. I even got a little wave and flash from a guy in an Audi convertible
It is just fantastic.....It has everything; goes like sh*t off a shovel, acceleration is blistering, comfortable and so planted. I know black and yellow isn't everyone's cuppa, but I think it really works, makes the car feel and look more like a sports car (I used to have the 981 GTS in Agate and that fell more like a GT)....All just head trickery I guess.
I went for the 10mm lowered rather than the standard 20mm as I have a steep driveaway and it even then I still scraped the mud-flaps on the the way out (no problem going up).
Shiny black calipers, front and rear, door handles, yellow dials, seat belts
The only thing I'm not keen on is the dials, I got them in yellow but all the warning lights etc are visible on the dials, it makes it look more 'racy' but it all a bit too busy for me.
I also went for the black headlights to give it the more 'insecty' look and totally forgot that the running lights are on all the time. So when the car's in motion I'm missing a bit of the effect I was going for, hardly a big deal.
I placed my first deposit in June 2021, finalised the spec mid Nov 2021, I managed to place the final order the day before the prices went up, so the dealership honoured the price with no quibbles. I did have to pay an extra £105 as the road tax has gone up in the meantime.
I'll sort out some photos and post them in the next few days
Looks superb! Enjoy 😎

Jack it up and put it in reverse - like FB's day off.
Just don't lean on the front of the car when you are doing it...

Put this in the Meets section. If you can get up at 5.30 am I'm sure a couple of regulars here will show you some nice roads, back by lunchtime?
...though when you park up back at your meeting hotel / Auntie Mabel's, check there is no plastic phallus stuck to the back of your car before you walk away.
Novice mistake.
...
The plastic knob always goes on the front of the car 🤐

My advice (from bitter personal experience...) would be: Don't admit to this bunch of Muppets that you've got a Cayman...
You love it Goldilocks!

That seems a strangely specific number, guilty conscience? 🤔
