Hi chaps took delivery of my 991 GT3 PCCB AND CLUBSPORT on 25th of April so far 800 miles of sheer joy Silverstone done and Anglesey booked next woop woop - best car ever - looked at quite a few before settling for this one - and was not disappointed one tiny bit -
Are you part of Club Mulholland by any chance? Edited by Avik on Monday 18th May 23:21

Took her out today for a good 250miles drive in the valley of horses and into Cotswolds. Not Wales but yet again delivered a really good moment and reminded me about how special this car is.. Able to really hover over at times pretty awful surfaces.. And God when you can unleash it to 9k in 2nd and 3rd.. What a joy.
Really loved it. I need to book Wales soon and follow up there. Pleasantly surprised by lack of traffic in the middle of the day too. Really nice runs.
On a practical point of view I think I will have my harnesses removed. I find them just annoying in every day driving as the tunnel side one cannot be put away and the crutch one is always there to intrude.. I think they will go back in the box and some red normal belts will take the place of the black ones.
Pictures to follow :-)

I had similar and you can go in and reset the TP monitor on the computer. It's explained in the manual I'm sure.

If you have bucket seats you can pull the centre harness belt through the gap in the seat cushion and tuck it underneath the seat. I've done this and it's out of the way.

Thanks for the heads up Charles & incidentally, I eventually got my extra warranty after writing to Chris Craft.I had similar and you can go in and reset the TP monitor on the computer. It's explained in the manual I'm sure.

Your info definitely helped.
Lots of good info here as usual. In order of recollection :
- I will try to tuck away the central belt inside the seat them by removing the seat base. Let's see if I can manage when I get to the car tomorrow.
- mine is a Second batch car, so I should be cat 3 owner. The ones who never got anything in comp and just had to sit and wait for the car. but I had been promised the 4th year warranty by Chris Croft by letter and it's never been applied to the car. I wrote and phoned both to my dealer and Porsche GB customer service. Still nothing back.
- lucky as I am I seem to have picked up a nail in the rear passenger tire. Pressure still normal but OPC notified me when I dropped it for an A/C issue. They want 435 pounds to replace it. I found smith like 310 online. Anywhere you guys can recommend to have it fitted or where I can order it for delivery to the OPC?
- finally I asked for a quote to swap normal seat belts for red ones. 1350 pounds

All the fourth year warranties supplied & those that had yet to be, had inherited a problem in so much as that proceedures relating to financial regulations governing the warranties had not been correctly applied.- I will try to tuck away the central belt inside the seat them by removing the seat base.

I had an email from One of Chris Crafts assistants informing me of such & asking for patience while the whole problem is resolved. In a nutshell Richard there was a bit of a balls up which is now being unravelled.
I'm sure all will get resolved in due course...............

My OPC charged me a similar amount for a rear tyre a few weeks ago, allegedly the last one in the country which was obtained from Porsche in Reading. I did get 10% PCGB discount though.- I will try to tuck away the central belt inside the seat them by removing the seat base. Let's see if I can manage when I get to the car tomorrow.

I don't believe that an OPC will fit tyres that you supply yourself!

Depends on your relationship and how pragmatic the service manager is.Mine recently fitted new rear Bridgestone Pots to a Carrera GTS for £40 inclusive! The car had no other work done at the time and the tyres were supplied and delivered directly to the OPC by Oponeo. Great service btw.
