Looks very nice.

Take it easy when driving onto the ferry very slowly and you will not bottom out.

When I returned home I found strap marks on the rear O/S wing where they had strapped the car down to the deck.

Needed some detailing to remove the marks and it had cut into the paint on the underside but easily touched up as you cannot see it.

Was a rough trip as was in the storms back in August so you should be OK this weekend.

Thanks Shifty

Due to previous Porsche damage I politely insist someone seems me on and off the boat (Condor told me I should do this). I also had damage once from strapping so I might just insist on overseeing it. You can probably guess that my trips on the Condor have not been plain sailing so to speak*. The wind does get up Saturday night, but not for long so hopefully Sunday will be ok.

  • On one trip a car didn't have its handbrake one, rolled two car lengths, missed other cars, and did £700 damage to the rear of the Porsche (it was a hill climb car with a timing plate sticking out the front). Took me a year to get the car owner to accept liability. He was from Jersey and known to be a complete ahole so I found out.
Pardon my vulgarity!

Something that doesn't happen that often so thought I would ask - did you wave at a white CGTS around Winbourne today? Sorry if you did and I didn't respond but so far it hasn't seemed something Porsche owners do.

If it was in the morning, and it was a chap in a yellow BGTS then that was me. I recall waving at someone in a white Cayman; I think it was at a busy roundabout. Was on the way to the Weymouth ferry...

Thanks! First yellow car owned. Was not 100% sure until I saw it in the flesh. Phew!

GTS external pack shiney black bits go well with the shiney black wheels.

My first yellow car was a Fiat Cinquecento Sporting!!

My second would have been the Spyder had yellow been an option as standard and not PTS. Ideally Speed Yellow.

Yours works well with the black wheels and the external pack.

After a long succession of cars in a "safe" (read dull) colour, this one just makes me smile. I expect you are the same.
