Are you collecting from the factory or from a Porsche centre in the uk?

Seems first UK cars delivery mid October if comfort seats. Bucket specced cars 4week delay mid November delivery.

I was told last week mine would leave the factory on 13th Oct with LWBs, so end of Oct delivery by the sound of it.

Mine is the first car from the OPC and has the folding buckets.......but I changed colour shortly before the spec froze.....this probably accounts for the anticipated mid November delivery.

Mine has just arrived at OPC - should be able to collect this week - going to have a look (or indeed lick) tomorrow- whoop

Splendidly yellow

Just had mine confirmed built, should make the boat this Thursday, so looking forward to picking her up around the 17th.
I did not spec bucket seats, as I have them in my other car and wanted a bit more comfort.

Hoping to pick up on Thursday.... Very pleased with the car in the flesh. Sadly on Pirelli rather than Michelin but hey ho

[Bieldside]

Enjoy - looks a lovely spec

[mdianuk]

You must REALLY like yellow

Enjoy.

[Akajak]

enjoy; congrats looks great

[911gt3rs]

Not sure I would have gone for the White vinyl roof option!

Looks great. My copy of Evo Issue 215 Dec 2015 just dropped through the letterbox with an almost identical yellow 981 Boxster Spyder reviewed in the Alps (p.122-131) and getting an Evo Rating of 5 stars!

From no chance and deposit refunded to car coming in December
Just been advised today
How lucky is that !
Not yellow though ....
Saphhire or GT ?
Want to avoid alcantara though as its in my GT3 and not a great fan

[griffgrog]

Got my build confirmed as the 29th of this month! Get in.

How long from build to collection??

[Boxster7]

Great news to hear cars arriving !
I was in for an Oct allocation but I think it's been delayed due to GT2 Buckets.

Has anyone got plans / advise on protection for our new toys ??

I've been looking at either Opti Coat paint protection or may be XPel Ultimate Protection Film....

Any advice most welcomed.
Thanks

I have it, but wouldn't get overexcited at the level of protection it offers. If you get it "free", OK, but at the official list price (I believe £400).....
