As long as you don't say that about the Cherry Bomb's owner....

You are a bad man! 😂

Calling Mistress Caz @CAZ, this man clearly deserves some of your 'special' treatment for even raising this... 😬

Here are some links I had saved...

Looks nice, but Jesus that wonky rear number plate would do my head in 

That is shocking, sent a shiver down my spine!

Viewed and bought.

Good news!    Which one have you bought?

probably priced down because its not been used for what it was intended for

I'll be generous and give you £650 and a packet of wotsits

@rowbos can't be trusted, he just wants to abuse it to keep the miles off his own car

 

I can't believe you said that!  ( I can't believe I was so transparent 🧐 )

@Geopat Just to move this on for you, £660, and I'll even ome and collect it rather than you bring to me.  Can't say fairer than that!

I'll give you £600 👍

I've put in older family cars through a quote in the past and had WBAC offer me £0 to take them off my hands 😂

Are they different due to construction quality or just gear ratios?

It would seem strange if they are of different quality, economies of scale and all that 🤔

Would fit along the side wall of a garage 

Making sure you leave enough room for the other sign on that wall, stating "Please enter and rob me blind, expensive stuff held in garage" 😬

Baseball cap when it's sunny and tight fitting bobble hat when it's cold.  I don't have a solution for when it's sunny and cold and wearing both hats at the same time is a no-no apparently...😬

I'm surprised that hasn't happened sooner........... 

You're surprised?!  😬

I bought some fingerless driving gloves from Amazon, haven't used in a drive yet but they do look good.

You get cold palms but not fingers?  My fingers are the bits that get cold 🤔

Now come on! You know you should be wearing string backed driving gloves, you know it makes sense.😊 (Preferable light tan with cream string backs.)

 

Showing your age Rev!  🤐

The problem is what gloves…. 
Leather ones, but then you look like you’re on your way to do a “job” 🔪👀. 
Mittens just don’t have the practicality needed.  
Wooly gloves are just damn right slippery and dangerous. 

I've got these. In black.  Nice comfy gloves.  Very think and soft and grippy.

But yes it could be commented that you might be on the way to a job, a nice safe job perhaps? (gratuitous Young Ones quote 😁)

Think I’ve just found the answer ☺️

Wont look a bit soft wearing gloves 🤣

No. You'll just look like some kind of serial killer with a skinning fetish 😁

Certainly not on your own. My circulation in my hands is pretty much sweet FA anyway. Winter does not help. And with the natural forces of gravity my hands are always freezing after a decent drive. I often swap hands and sit on one with the heated seats on to get some life back in them. 

I do the same 😄

And wear gloves...

Wow!!  😍

Possible to add 2011 987.2 Black Edition (if it goes to that level of detail on model numbers) please?

Else 2011 987S 3.4 if this is the only option?

Thanks!

Looks great!

Bigger photos would be great - you need to host them using an external provider such as Flickr or Imgur (other hosts are available!) and embed an in-line link here so we can see full resolution images...

In the letter they sent with the quote it says the underwriters had a total loss on a Porsche at a track day at Anglesey which is why they now won't cover track days. Real shame as they were nice people to deal with and gave a pretty good price.

Ah.  Yes I've always found them very helpful, and cost wise extremely competitive for the cover given...

Interesting.   I've been with Manning for a few years now, renewal due soon as I recall.  I wonder if this is an across the board change for them? 

I might have to look for a quote from Locktons too 🤔

Where there’s a will…!

There's a relative?

Good effort!

Would it be better to get the component refresh done at your chosen indy - CPS or similar?   And then get it tweaked and setup by CG to your requirements 🤔

Just remove the tyres and run on the alloys, I doubt you will notice much difference.

Better grip potentially 🤔
