Hello all, thought I'd start my Cayman updates and tweeks on here.

So she's a 2007 with 111000 on the clock..

A touch tatty but all together a fantastic car for the money.

I had no plans to buy one untill I suggested to a mate in the market for a new car "how about the Cayman, supposed to be fantastic" I briefly checked the prices online... Couldn't believe how cheap they were!! A week later...

So I've noticed the Cayman arches are huuuge! Whilst up on the ramps for a bit of a check over (new plugs, coils packs & compression check) I thought I'd throw a 20" tyre in there...

After a bit of photoshoppery I've decided I'd have to try the Porsche 20" techno wheels.

A set were sourced and a hell of a lot of faffing with tyres sizes and wheel offsets...

IMO the real life looks better than the Photoshopped version.
No rubbing and actually rides smoother than with the 18s on.

Ok exhaust next... £240 of shiney ebay goodness

Of course it didn't fit... A touch of grinder and welder later....



I'm not overly happy with the exhaust tip positions so my have to address this... Maybe change the tips completely...

Looks great. I am also shocked at such great value for money.
