Had it delivered to the office and it's now sitting there waiting for lunchtime! Looks great and the joy of a car with next to no miles on it!

So, a 'running in' trip to Le Mans on Thursday then!

I have now officially left the Porsche forum and will make this my new home (must change my profile piccie)

Cheers all

If the BMW Mini is for estate agents, the 1 series for slightly more successfull estate agents, the 3 series saloon for sales reps, the 5 for middle management and the 7 for Stevie wonder..

Where does the Z4 coupe fit in hehe

That's for the ex-workers who left and then came back as contractors/consulants - or the tea boy (can never remember)!

I'm just about to go and plaster the 30 mile Z with stickers for Le Mans! That should distance me from the estate agents...........but will blend in with the Foxtons stickered up cars scratchchin

I'll get some pics up later- i'm off to do the tea run for the office.

i had put some stickers on my car one time and although i got called a plonker even more times than usual by strangers , the stickers looked good and came off without leaving any nasty scratch marks

i had one massive on on my bonnet and two on the sides and people kept asking me if i did rallying which i thought was pretty cool but then i got abuse , and then the cops pulled me a few times and asked what they were for and i told them i am an artist..anyhow..good luck with your stickers, just remember you cannot put a number on them. also i will email you later about how to get into the club you found yourself amongst in on saturday night........

I was reading the book last night, clutch needs 300 miles, ditto brakes, no revving over 4500 for 1250 miles, don't go over 100 mph for 1250 miles frown

The 4500 rpm is OK, not really an issue as it give you more than enough acceleration. It's just gone to 120 miles today so still tight as you like!

See you there mate- glad you got the tape OK.
