I sold the Cayman a couple of months ago as it just wasn't quite 'special' enough to use only as a second car. I had considered leaving owning another car for a while, but the right opportunity presented it's self at the wrong time, but I thought what the hell, so I've now got this sat outside!:









Sorry about the crap photos but I've only just got it! It needs a proper detail and then some decent photo's being taken.

I'll be out in it as often as I can afford to put fuel in it, so if you see me around Bournemouth give me a wave!

I'll also do my very best to get along to as many meets as possible this summer.

ETA: I'm sure it looks almost purple in some of the pics....can I come to play?! hehe

Just the man! I know we had a few e-mails about getting my Porsche detailed and I never got round to arranging it, but this thing definitely needs a good looking at. It's pretty dirty at the moment. I'll drop you a PM and see if we can sort out a date/venue that suits us both. thumbup

Beautiful in blue black, looks like it has got some nice German stable mates, somewhere near Holesbay I should imagine wink.

Now it's time for a nice PH sticker and maybe some Capristo (I know it's a 355 but, but...)

Enjoy.

Verrrrry nice 'toy' biggrin

The new rule is, if you are claiming your car is purple, we not only need a pic of you in a coordinating outfit to help sell your case, but you'll need to let me take it for a spin just so I can check out the paintwork in different lights wink

I think some blues are sneaking in, including my PH mate with a 355, so if you can make the 18th July post up on the thread & we can also split the groups for the pics (purple cars at the front, blue cars behind the trees!)

I'll have to go get myself some purple slacks so I can pose for the pic! hehe If taking you for a spin will make you see black as purple then it's a deal!

I don't mind hiding behind the trees when it comes to photo time!

Ahhh, yeah, I can see how that comes across!! If Mr FLG is reading, my intentions are purely car related! hehe
