It's one of the reasons I went for my S: it's pre march 2006 so it's "only" £400 to tax. The really mean one is the 2.7 with 6 speed 'box option: that misses the CO2 bracket by 1 gramme and attracts full whack tax like an S!
How does slightly different gearing effect the CO2 output?It's one of the reasons I went for my S: it's pre march 2006 so it's "only" £400 to tax. The really mean one is the 2.7 with 6 speed 'box option: that misses the CO2 bracket by 1 gramme and attracts full whack tax like an S!

Having recently sold an Exige I'm currently sitting in a train station on my way to view a 981 GT4. A tantalising prospect and I hope Jayemms review was once again accurate..
We need updates.Here it is. Needs a service and possibly a couple of small jobs. I'll probably get the wheels refurbed back to platinum too, ( they're weiss gold and look much better in the flesh but not contrasting enough against silver/yellow caliper IMO ). Running Manthey Geo so sits a bit lower than standard. I'm really pleased with it and it's super clean. Excuse the crap photo which doesn't do it justice.
I have to say it's sublime. I have an uncle who had a 993 RS and then a 996 GT3 back when they were new and he took me out in them once or twice. Both were GT Silver and they made a massive impression on me so it's lovely to finally own one. Granted its not a mezger but it's still a hell of a thing. First time I've experienced PCCB's too which are fabulous..
I should also so that whilst it's a step up from my old modded 987s you can still feel similarities and the quality runs through them all. That car was worth a quarter of the GT4 as you never get the return when modding. In general the balance and control weights of any Cayman always feel right so even a base model with uprated suspension and a noisey exhaust will be fun..
