The new car has arrived! (Dealer images rubbed out in case it’s a posting issue)

Any idea on where I can source a decent, fitted indoor cover for it?!

997.1 Turbo. Lovely colour.

I like using the standard Porsche indoor cover direct from your main dealer.

Enjoy

Thanks, yes will order one. Looked on eBay but no original turbo bags for sale right now so I’ll have to splash out on Main dealer purchase if there are m other better priced suppliers for a good quality bag

Lovely looking car. Reminds me a bit of my E36 M3 Cab which I had back in ‘97 Estoril Blue with Black Leather.

Thanks! Am absolutely delighted with it. Bit more expensive than I hoped at £61k but it’s 2 owner 32k, still on Porsche extended warrantee etc
worried the colour would be a bit garish but your right, just like the similer M3 blue, i think it just works and looks slightly classic for its era

70 % of 997's seem to be White, Black, Silver or Grey (my GTS is Silver)...you've done well to find a car in a more interesting colour. And it looks in great condition and low mileage as well.

Just make sure that the extended warranty is still valid as Porsche don’t like them going through the trade.
The genuine Porsche indoor covers are very good and fit very well and only £150 or so.

Warranty checks out and has 10months left so I’ll just keep it running. If the cover is sub £200 that is a lot cheaper than I thought so thanks for the info!

+1 for Specialised - pricey but you get what you pay for IMO

Genuine Porsche ones are £200 retail but if you ask nicely they should give you 10% off and sell you one for £180.

I bought one recently for that from my OPC and they are good value IMO.
