Disgruntled customer after told he was not getting a R

At least the engine isn't flooded!

You can take a Porsche to water ....

Who in their right mind would build a car park next to a river/canal without some form of kerb/raised wheel blocks?

Seems a bit radical when usually all that's needed is a third radiator.

[Phooey]

Must've been a woman driver?

Folk are always predicting that Porsches will take a dive....

Salesman - Ah, yes that selects first....

Or a prime example of not letting morons near such cars.

Perhaps the apprentice mistook it for a Cayman ...

WTF is that about then?

Apparently a mechanic is responsible. Maybe there is a caliper issue and they have been removed for checking and they thought they would put the wheels back on and display it on the forecourt?

As per the Spotted Supercar thread, is it missing a rear calliper ?

No rear caliper?

[Trevatanus]

so what would happen in this case?
Would they take it to the bodyshop fix, and deliver?
If you were the new owner, would you want a damage repaired example?
Not sure which model this is, but I cannot imagine he would just ask Porsche for another one, due to limited numbers.

[MrBarry123]

Can't be much risk of engine damage though?

O/T Seriously impressed.

How did you reply to a question before I even asked it?
