If Wilmslow don't need it they can use mine, but I'll need to borrow a car to get home. Polar silver, manual, marble leather, standard apart from RS steering wheel.

Hmm, I quite fancy your car and I see a plan developing - it goes something like this:

Bring bring...bring bring...
phone "Porsche Cente Kendal - good morning"

"Hi, my name's Craig. You have my car on display - it's the orange one."

"Yes, sir"

"I'm busy with work and can't get down to collect it myself but I'll send someone over for it soon"

"Certainly sir, we'll be sure to clean it before handing over the keys to anyone who turns up asking for them, even though I've not even verified that you are the actual owner of the car....."

I'm sure it'll work winkdriving

Marcus why would you want to go home? drive the car there, display, eat and drink, drive home

When Wilmslow used my gf's 996 (at the special motorsport nights they did a tour with last autumn) I dropped it off in the morning and they brought it back the day afterwards - much easier for their display logistics and they can make sure all the cars are clean (even more pertinent at this time of year). No-one took any of the display cars home on the night.

That makes sense, give Ian a bell, spoke to him today and he was talking about a 993 C2 from the Isle of Man, sure he would appreciate the loan, he originally wanted the RS but as the 991 is a C2 he now wants carrera 2 models for the display, so Ive been ditched !! I'm still planning on being there though,

At the region 5 club night at Wilmslow (Nov 8th?) they said they only wanted RHD standard coupe/Carrera(2)s. They also said they'd keep them on display until 2nd week of January if the owners don't need them. I've got winter tyres going on next week (after Oulton on Saturday) so I don't really want to be without it if it does snow. driving

I'll try and remember to dig out Barry Doulton's email address tomorrow and see if they've got a car sorted or not.

So you've decided to take the 993 for a little run out on track...I might have to pop along to take a look. smile
