A Porsche Cayman R will be joining the stable tomorrow and I can't wait. I had one many years ago and its the most beautifully balanced machine. In fact, of all the performance cars I've been lucky enough to drive at the Nurburgring, including the mad GT2, it's the Cayman R that I remember most fondly. This one comes with the all important bucket seats, especially if you're looking to attend a few track days. I went for PDK too because that's where I spend most of my free time. If I intended to use the car only on the road then I definitely would have gone with a manual box.

Lovely. I like the DLR retro-fit, very subtle.

Lovely! Is that a PTS colour? Looks stunning and better than my silver 987.2 biggrin

It's standard Guards Red but the lighting plays tricks! It will be my first red car incredibly.

Collection day today. Christmas has come early. It’s such a sweet handling car; the drive home was sublime. I’m a very happy chappie.

That looks lovely; the painted interior parts certainly lift the interior. Lovely wheels too.

My first thought was "Ah, it isn't Peridot... Shame", but that really looks great in guards red!

Was that the £55k one at John Holland?

Jesus I thought that would never sell at that money.

Maybe I’ve got the market crashing wrong

It isn't retro fit. They have those strips from new.

Lovely car OP.
