Mine will be going satin platinum when they get tired i think.
Anyone got images of spyder wheels in this finish?

Yep:


My phone always turns photos upside down but you get the idea.

Ah that wasnt my idea on Satin Platinum, maybe im thinking of som,ething else. I'm thinking of the Satin Silver finish on the 991.2 GT3 wheels.

Found pics of them on a Lichtgrun GT3

Any recommendations for a phone holder, iPhoneX in a normal Apple leather case. Don't want to have to take it out of the case etc.

Just want to be able to have it mounted on the vents maybe? Not sure what is ideal, but certainly not so far away as the windscreen.

Can't see a car, only the menu, but if it's the Perth one http://locator.porsche.com/ipl-customer/ipl/details/details.ipl?md5=5dadaf557844fcd86b6551bb6a7c90e1&url=uk, yes nice spec bar Sport Chrono & Short Shift, but both can be retrofitted.

Black on black though which is a hard sell for most and missing the front bumper decals - new bumper?)

This car was previously at Wilmslow for the same price who then dropped it to £47.5k ish - no takers, move group, put price up??? There are some optimistic people in the industry...

£51k 6 months ago, maybe. Not now. I'd offer them £45k if I wasn't on hold due to work contracts, but would definately query the front bumper. :scratchin:

It was the Perth one, yes. Hadn't noticed the missing decals - probably had a bumper re-spray. Colour wouldn't be my choice either to be honest. It is rather toppy considering no Sport Chrono.

Is there any way the back rest on the bucket seats can be more upright, to allow the seat further back?

I had a sit in the Perth one, but I'm too long in the leg as the seats are now.

I have a Mega Mounts magnetic holder attached with a 'sucker' on my windscreen to the right of the wheel, and a case with an inbuilt metal panel on my iPhone 7.

It's pretty discreet and perfect for my iPhone 7, at the right of the wheel it's close enough to tap in Waze info but doesn't obstruct my view. The thing is I'm not sure you'll find a similar (nice looking) case for an X. I think Mega Mounts do a cradle mount too?

Mous case limitless 2 case and limitless mount.
Case has built in magnets and fit the mount perfectly.

Mines superb, i use it in my daily but wouldnt hesitate at using it in my Cayman

• CAYMAN R OUTDOOR CAR COVER*

Going to finally pull the trigger on a Classic Additions Ultimate Outdoor for the R.

Does anyone have photo of one fitted to an R/aerokitted car, be it fully tailored or semi fitted?



Thanks

[Dissolved]

I sold my GT3.2 but still enjoying my 991.2 GTS Cabriolet (in Crayon).
On the lookout for a good R with PDK and buckets if anyone knows of any?

Drop me a mail @ [e-mail] for possible chat.

Done - apologies for the delay

Any other R owners looking to move their cars on at present please PM me, thanks

Happy Christmas to all you Cayman R owners. Did anyone else take advantage of the empty roads this morning?


My son and I had a little run out after the presents while the girls got ready for the day.
Forgot how bloody good these things are to drive!

[Jim1556]

Stunning car, lovely to see it being used! Gutted I missed out when the time was right (Tom wouldn't take my part-ex).

Enjoy one of the best CRs in the country! Merry Christmas...

Help please on Porsche "MNR" 3-digit codes on the original build sheet for a Cayman R. I'm currently looking at 2 used R's, both with bucket seats, but they have different "seating" MNR codes on their original build sheets.

On the build sheet for car "A" are the MNR codes:
388 - Sports bucket seat, left
389 - Sports bucket seat, right

On the build sheet for car "B" are the MNR codes:
P77 - Sports seats
375 - Sports seat backrest shell, LE, manual
376 - Sports seat backrest shell, RI, manual

Does this mean that car "B"'s buckets are retrofitted? And that it was built with sports seats having no electric adjustment?
Or have I misunderstood the meaning of these codes?

Is the second R in Guards Red?
