I've only ever seen a couple of uk reg/lhd 997 GT3s.

These days I would expect lhd to be at a premium over rhd - it would certainly be my preference. Obviously there will be a bigger choice in mainland Europe.

Sounds like a plan smile
I'm just curious If for weekend driving it would really be a pain

A lot of the driving will be on the continent.

Even in the UK I prefer LHD (apart from car parks).

Not really. My LHD toys aren't a problem at all

Search Porsche France, some of the French dealers have some great GT3's
e.g. Green RS 997.1, Riviera Blue 997.2 GT3 and you will also have a warranty that is covered in the UK.

I would choose a lhd over a rhd any day. The driving position of rhd 996/7 is compromised. Those who have not driven a lhd version should try.

This is not a standard GT3 is it? Do you have any more information on this?
