too quick to reply, as I said, you can just about on the fronts.

Not 'muppetry' just bored of the arguments - I wasn't arguing one way or other - quite frankly I don't give a monkeys if it's visible or not.

why bring me into it ? you do your mods, MC and carnewal rear section (neither offer any performance upgrade), or should I say you talk about doing yours as I take it yours is still stock.

I'll do mine or I should say I HAVE done mine and lets both be happy :-) you in your still stock car and me in my 360bhp 1250kg finished car.

[Axel987]

This is for Buyers/owners/R modifers Cmoose.
You are neither of these things!

DISMISSED!

[Beanoir]

It's about time somebody took the hint.

Go find another place to play Moose, we're bored of you of now.

Cheers fella

You know you only make it worse by taking the bait. I for one would like to hear what you have done to reach that level and am sure others would too. Who cares whether anyone wants to criticise what you have done, it's only the internet after all. Either way it's a sight more interesting than reading endless drivel about values and such like.

Meanwhile on the other side of the World from most of you, here in New Zealand I am enjoying my standard R on some great B roads

Early morning start, so a little cold

Can't be many Rs in NZ??

Five car group: 993, R, RS60, 991 GT3......and a Golf GTI

[John McM]

No footage of a 12km run where the 991 GT3 tried to outpace the R (he couldn't shake me), but he did take this footage of another part of the run. http://youtu.be/2ANmfcUwR4M

The R was sublime on these roads. Turn in was razor sharp, brakes progressive and the handling gave me great confidence. These cars are brilliant out of the box.

Three that we know of. One Black, one White and one Grey. Mine is ex UK.

[Beanoir]

That's what it's all about, getting out and driving the damn things! Loving the driving gloves too!

I'd love to have a chance to drive a 991 GT3 to see how it feels compared to the R, I've no doubt (obviously) it's a more capable car but I'd be interested to see just how much the PDK/steering etc makes a difference or not to real world driving and having fun. They have grown on me a lot and was quite impressed with Larry's car on a run the other week....funnily enough he was wearing gloves too...

That's one less in the UK.

Be nice to know how many 'R' Manual and PDK's there are left in the UK

[Dan911]

Couple of new ones to the market..

Interesting values on these is creeping up a bit.

It still surprises me how low the mileage can be on them sometimes.

Around 96 manual and 110 PDK judging by 'how many left' figures. Might be a few SORN, but that figure seems to be the rough ballpark.

Is there a site showing this info?
