Does anyone have an anthracite brown car? I'd be interested to see pics of it with whatever interior you went for, especially of it doesn't involve luxor beige

Excellent job KMF!!

I also like the dash end panels in Alcantara. If I had a Spyder there would be a pm on its way to you asking if you would take on a commission job.

Picked up this bad boy yesterday and drove it 450 miles back home to London. Have to say the manual box version was far more interactive than the Pdk I drove. Perfect for my intimate weekend drives!

Absolutely smitten with it but will get a proper initial thoughts post up in the boxster section when I have time. Can definatley see why all the magazines raved about them. Had a 30 min blast with the roof off a moment ago and tbf sound is just amazing. Echoing off anything within a 10 meter radius is just heavenly.

Optioned my CR in Speed Yellow after much soul-searching and encouragement from Mrs DP... then Porsche said that particular paint-pot was no longer being used for the R. So went the other way, minimal shoutiness (I'd de-optioned the stripes but thankfully they stayed) and kit: music, aircon, rear wiper and reversing sensor. And black wheels, natch. Know what though, I really hate that there are two vanity mirrors with lights in the sun visors. In a cabin with no door handles, they seem a tad inappropriate. And, every time I use the visors, those damned lighty mirrors are there, mocking me. Awesome car though, the only beast ever to stop me missing my Elise 135... and by some way.

Looks even better from the side, in Glencoe, which is just a series of runways linked by sweeping bends, chicanes, caravans and the odd sheep. Perfect really...

Another lucky owner discovers one of Porsche best kept secrets in decades. Brave man driving her home in all that weather but before you know it spring will have sprung and topless fun can kick off

Happy Motoring

So, i thought it was time to give it a good wax (well, it has been 2 months since I picked it up and it has only been polished a couple of times) and here is the result of a couple of hours with Auto Glym HD Wax:



And afterwards tucked up in the garage smile

The Channel Islands forum on PH was only put in place at the end of last year. The Guernsey PHers have decided to form a breakfast club and this was a photo from the car park where us first few members met. We are planning monthly meetings and expect the numbers to grow exponentially:



The reason for this trio is that they represent the colours of the Guernsey flag! (Apologies but we didn't have a red Porsche to hand.)

There were a few other nice cars about:

Arse. Where's that Orange pic I saw the other day? Could have sworn it was on here. Cayman (possibly a GTS?). Where is it?
