I was mainly taking it to check how the GTS sound symphoser sounds when driven in attack mode and it didn’t disappoint, also the car ran faultlessly after me taking it apart which is both a miracle and a blessing 😂 Looks awesome buddy. I feel a sense of pride as a part of the backroom staff that supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile I’m told supercar owners are cautious about parking their cars here due to the salty air. Friend took his DB6 back to Cambridge, said when it was here (400m from Atlantic coast) he could see the corrosion worsening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of how-to’s on you tube so didn’t bother with capturing mine. a VERY subtle mod that most won’t notice, but then we’re mostly all afflicted with the same OCD with these cars! Standard unit top, new led below existing unit new led @Withy yes, you do need these, did mine 18 mo the ago.

Sounds a little dramatic you'll be fine, seaside conditions aren't exclusive to Scotland, the west is generally a bit wet but it's absolutely stunning I'm on the other side, the east generally has far less rainfall. It can be salty between November and March time so I prefer to keep it tucked away this time of year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s magic 😂 No they are 3d printed wall mounts for the Lego car’s. Some people do use those sticky hooks and bits of string but I didn’t fancy them dropping on car😩 The Lamborghini is just there temporarily until I finish building the GT3 RS👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianJ Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Took my Agate 2013 981S (owned it for 8 years) to Porsche Centre Solihull yesterday and picked up a replacement 2016 981S in Guards Red. Amazing car in fantastic condition. In my researches I reckon the difference between a 2016 GTS and an S of the same age, spec and miles is at least £8k and often £10k or even £12k. That's a lot of money for a G & T! After a test drive in a GTS I couldn't find any discernible difference on the road vs my old S with PASM, Sport Chrono etc, so looked for another well-specified S instead. This one has everything I want, even the recently released MY 2021 PCM maps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianJ Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Loads, but to be honest don't have time for the whole imgur thing at the moment. I've got images on loads of systems already. I'll no doubt get there eventually. Sorry for sounding unhelpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
