I have to say, I'm beginning to like mine a bit more now.

It's only taken 14 months, although when the stty weather hits us I probably won't like it again!

if a deals that good then no! but seriously, a high end porsche, going down the route napoleon, dropping into the harbor at monaco, you pull up at your favorite hotel with a bloomin ugly thing suckered to the bloody dash!

i do plenty of euro driving in my toys & i like nav factory fitted.

then there's the neatness of the install, the lack of wires, the way it cuts in over the stereo so you don't have to turn it down when you're coming up to a junction or something.

i've had plenty of cars without it of course, but i think it's better to have all in all & the simple fact is there are cars out there with it on so why compromise.

there is a perfect spec black one out there but the vendors are a complete joke & it will only have some third party warranty.

There's a black one at OPC Dublin with PCM and loads of spec for £39995 inc 2 years Porsche warranty.

Oh don't mention it. No trouble at all. Happy to help.

Compared to Nottingham car it has PDK and sports exhaust - those plus PCM, might be worth the £2700 extra?

Or maybe just have a sarcastic swipe instead. Hmmmmm indeed.

Non ceramic brakes?

Black one on Autotrader at 37k seems to tick all the boxes? Manual, sports exhaust, sat nav etc. they would be mad not to accept a serious offer at this time of year and you could put your own Porsche warranty on it?

Indeed it does, but if they never return calls its hard to find out what they'll accept, I quite often dispare at some car dealers attempts at customer service.

Why do you want steels ?

I love the PCCB, they are better in every way.
but I could say why do you want sat nav, A/C. Etc lol.

I don,t think I ever want sat nav in a car again, only reason now would be resale ease,
And that does not matter on a Spyder.

I'm quite surprised that there are so many PDK models. Seems manual CR is the rarest of all wink - just!

Why? Have you written off five of them since the previous post smile ? 'Cus' when I last went to school (Friday as it happens but moving on) 111 was less that 115.
