I wonder does Mrs P know it's now officially NOT her car ???
In any matters such as this there's a price to be paid (new shoes, new handbags, new clothes, new kitchen or god forbid a new house, replacement car of equal or greater value) Has this change of ownership been fully sanctioned by both parties, and to both parties complete satisfaction ????

Interestingly it has and it gets worse - I swapped her 991.1 C2S cab , which she absolutely loved for the Spyder - amazingly I got away with it without reciprocal financial penalty - however , you just never know with this sort of thing and as such , I'm not being complacent - at some point in the future when the whole debacle is long forgotton (by me) the current Mrs P will take me to the cleaners - it will come from nowhere , I'll be left a lot poorer not really understanding what / how it happened - she's very good at this - like a smiling assassin smile
Well thank goodness you're savvy enough to realise she'll NEVER forget (and will most likely remember at the faintest whiff of marital disharmony) biggrin

Quote Mr B Ecclestone : If it flies, f*cks or floats, rent it ......

I think we've taken this as far off topic as is possible now, so let's head back on track :

Before it all got corporate :



When real men raced on the road (a bit like modern rallyists still do) :
Side intrusion bars ? Rollcage ? Just as well it was a left hooker mind ....



A stunning set of curves .... :

Firstly, apologies for the crappy photo quality. My Spyder is spending today with my bosses very tidy 3.2 (over-sized piston kit fitted, taking it out to 3.4) and another colleagues' 996. Spyder looks very lardy next to the 3.2...

The 7GT3RS in green was divine. I'm surprised more people didn't spec them at the time.
