What colour is your turbo? I will be in my 987 spyder

[Tycho1]

We will be going - 993 C2. We have been trying to get there for a few years. My wife is interested in the house, cars for me.

[mikeh501]

is it just a case of turn up? went to llandudno a few weeks back and enjoyed it. 991 GTS.

[jimmy p]

Yes just turn up, all the porsches get directed to park together, £10 per car.

Do you need to be a PCGB member to do this ? Cheers

[jimmy p]

No just turn up and pay your tenner, simples, most cars are all very clean and shiny, there is a concourse competition but I dont bother with that!

I think there's a ban on individuals with a vinyl graphic fetish though Richard....
So you're definitely persona no gratis ! !

Whichever steed you're proposing to take on Sunday Richard, I'll meet you on the gate and take it for a half hour thrash around the locale for you.
Upon my return it'll be absolutely plastered in flies, tyres shredded to the cords, wheels blackened with brake dust (which is why we don't buy cars with dark coloured wheels, because brake dust on your wheels is a badge of honour) stonechipped and looking distinctly "used", my guess is they'll wave their ban on vinyl graphic fetishists (is that a word ?) and welcome you with open arms. If not, well you've not lost anything ....

Thanks H - that's an offer I can't refuse, it's so nice of you; in fact I'll bring them all if you like

I hope you're not insinuating I'm greedy my dear fellow ?? !! One will do just fine, may as well make it something that needs spanking to break it in (so no Boxster Spyders, 2.7 RS reps or the like please, just something new and dripping in vinyl (and an options list to make your wallet quiver)

I guess it will have to be the manual 991.2 GT3 , but I know you don’t like the new stuff, so I wouldn’t insult you with any of the modern crap (it does have a lot of decals though )
