track days on the whole are a bit dull, Bedford more so lol

I do about 3 a year but like most ready to go home early, it's more about a day off work and a chat with like minded people, or a trip away with mates.

Same here. I generally do half as many laps as anyone else and always leave early. I spend most of the time talking about the cars. Like driving on track but I'll never be at the point where I care about times or hitting an apex perfectly.


My Cayman R is being collected tomorrow, it's going into the trade, had a very strong offer within 24 hours of the ad going up, they're picking it up tomorrow. The car that sold for 38k mentioned before was sold way too cheap by the way.

Getting something with about 25 doors and a sink. The money's going in to finishing off our house. I still have my 997 GT2, that won't ever be sold. I'll definitely miss this Cayman R though - part of the reason I've let it go to the trade is to get rid of it quickly so I don't change my mind.

Well I've offered southern sky a cracking out on that one they have but no joy. Decent offer in on the private one on auto trader but really want the pse.

Hopefully some more will come available as the gt4s start getting delivered.
