New Porsche, new pics

[finestjammy]

So, finally managed to grab a few quick pics, not the best (in the mist and moisture) and I need to get it detailed, but I'm pleased

It looks really nice, is the hose issue all sorted out now?

Thanks for that, new plate will be going on soon Yes all sorted thanks. It was a spring/clip close to the engine that had gone. They fitted the new rear tyres that the supplying dealer was going to send me in the end, makes it easy. New front discs and pads too as well as cleaning out the front air intake and rads. It's been a bit of a blip to Porsche ownership but to be fair the supplying dealer have been excellent at taking ownership and sorting all the issues out...and that's via my local OPC as well.

Very nice. Pleased to hear you got everything sorted.

Lovely looking car, love the colour and wheels...but is that front number plate no where near straight or is it my eyes? lol

Oooh, I think you might be right. I'll get that rectified when the private one goes on, good spot

nice car, my first Porsche was a gen 1 meteor grey Cayman S. Great drive. I eneded up sticking a tubi on and it sounded like an italian exotic!

I did also go to Le Mans in it, recommend you do this at some point, I had some Gulf stickers on for the trip:

That looks very tidy in your photos. Hope you have loads of fun with it!

Looks great, and really like the wheels! Does it have PASM, and if not how do you find the ride with the 19"? Also, I think they're the standard seats, do you find them supportive enough? Most of the cars coming up for sale seem to have them rather than the sport seats. Thanks

Thanks It has PASM and I'm really impressed with the ride, I didn't drive one without PASM I'm afraid. I love the seats. Plenty of support for me. I drove for 6 hours straight and still felt fine at the end of it too. I didn't necessarily look for sport or non sport, but am really happy with the standard ones.

Very nice indeed..., enjoy lots of miles.

I'am bias here as mine has them, the 19" Carrera II wheel looks great on the 987.

Something a bit anal, the Porsche crest on the front wheel is correctly aligned to the wheel locking bolt and air valve but
its not the same on the rear.

I started the Boxster / Cayman picture thread have a look back for it and post some pictures please.

Stunning! Congrats, that's pretty much my dream Cayman (hah currently saving) ... I'd be thrilled with that.

Thanks for that Klippe. The upload function didn't seem to be working for me yesterday for some reason. I've added a couple of pics to the thread, some lovely looking cars on there I'll sort that pesky crest out
