997 GT3 RS - Perfect for the weekly shop

[duggan]

Mrs Duggan needed to pop "up west" for some shopping and then the weekly shop on the way back - lovely day so the 500 Abarth stayed in the garage. I got to take a spin out in the GT3RS (hasn't moved in 2 months) and Mrs Duggan got to shop for handbags - what's not to like?

Love it! I used to only be a fan of the green but orange is growing on me. One day...

Great photos, I suspect quite a few of us had the Porsche's out today!

Not a fan of the window signage though, very odd.

Tasty car, not so good parking

there's no evidence to suggest that this vehicle's been used for grocery shopping, where's the photos of owner squeezing shopping bags past the roll cage

or indeed a crowd of chav types out front of asda gazing at rear wing longfully

Thanks for the comments. Taking a photo of the car in Selfridges/Sainsbury's car parks' is one thing...taking pictures of the shopping in the boot would get me certified. You'll have to trust me on that one - plenty of space in the RS.

The "on-Board" sticker is just a bit of fun - Mrs Duggan hates it and hence all the more reason to keep it

[mollytherocker]

Magnificent!

But seriously, get that stupid sticker off it. Are you trying to invite vandalism?

Surprisingly well actually You have to approach with caution, but taking your time (much to the annoyance of cars behind me) means no expensive scrapes!
