At last collecting GT3

[rjl]

After anxiously following threads for almost 10 months I will be leaving to collect my car from factory on wed.
One question, has anyone had a car on pirelli tires yet as my opc can't guarantee msc's even though the car is full club sport? And if so what are they like?

Pugsey: didn't get to try your seats but tried the next one and thankfully all is comfy! I was a bit worried for a while not being the smallest person around!

Hopefully the Pirelli's will come with 7mm not 5mm?

Are you sure?

Anyone measured them?

what's there to be anxious about.?

It seems that you have bought a truly fantastic car.

Yes 7mm apparantly, but all lap times, reports etc are always on msc's!

Local opc had a car turn up on them and owner had them changed to msc's(not sure who footed the bill).

Simon, looking forward to journey back and it will defo need zymoling(is that a word?).

By all accounts the tyres on the GT3 don't last that long so even if they do have the P's you'll be buying some replacements soon enough

Have fun on Wed!!

So who decides whether the GT3 comes with 5mm MSC's or 7mm Pirelli's?

Congrats! Enjoy - and take care round those Devon lanes! Re seats I thought all cars with buckets came with the belt catch slotted through the seat - so that when you slide into the drivers seat you get stabbed in the left thigh - but the car I drove at Millbrook yesterday had the catch on the outside if the seat - between seat and tunnel - which was more comfy but I'm not convinced it was the best of fits across your waist.

I think any GT3 is going to look awesome no matter what colour it comes in, but i can't help wondering what percentage will be white....75% possibly??!!

I think your correct there. Might even be more!
Viper green RS at local opc LOOKS EXCELENT!
Toyed with silver as pugesy's car but previous 996c4s was silver so thought I'd have a change.
