but I'm a sucker for stickers ! PaulD86 said:
The biggest concern to me is teh "Pirelli" decals. If you're happy with Pirellis, what other inferior items may have been fitted?! 
Lol, shame the PCGB have an affiliation with Pirelli. I've never driven on a Pirelli tyre i've liked.Not sure what the latest new Porsches come on these days/ I know the GT3s were Cup2s or Sport Maxx.

That car I am sure was owned previously by a Gill Gardner from Fife area a PCGB owner and was only recently sold on ,if its the same car was tracked a few times at Knockhill the graphics where added a few years ago .
Interesting stuff. It may be a nice car, but I am at a bit of a loss as to why you'd advertise anything so badly. At very least, some better pics and spec would be good. And I would suspect that stripped of the stickers it would have a much broader appeal. They make me wonder what they could be hiding. Or maybe the seller doesn't actually want to sell it and the advert is just there so they can say they tried...Best German cars – the greatest performance machines, past and present

Mine is maxed out on camber front and back, about 2 and a bit at the front and 2 at the back, front wheel spacers (best mod on the car!) with longer bolts, about 7mm from memory, cannot remember the toe settings without digging out the paperwork. Oh and it’s on Cup 2 tyres. Great handling car, done quite a few track days and it’s just lovely. It’s tempting to go for adjustable front bottom arms for more camber but it’s so nice as it is the need is not strong.bigmowley said:

PDK, (relatively) high mileage, wrong wheels, no spec list, import?! Questionable stickerage and rather high price considering others/spec...https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202108106...

Almost like he doesn't want to sell it?

This is what I got done this year - all standard parts but I do have 5mm front spacers on it. I asked for max negative front camber. This (well, all they did) made a surprisingly massive difference to the car vs how the OPC had it set. Miles better now. Before, the front end would want to push rather too often.

Before, the front end would want to push rather too often.Mine used to wash terribly on the drivers side which was an indicator of bad geo. We never got a reading of it though as mine was in for a front end suspension refresh so no point them putting it on the machine for a 'before' reading. It's much better now but interesting what you can dial into the stock suspension there...
How's the front tyre wear pattern looking?

Too early to tell much I'm afriad. I find I wear the rears quite a bit quicker than the fronts, however wear is more even on the fronts than the rears as it stands. I'd need to do more miles on them to get a useful answer though. I am thinking new tyres next year anyway. I'm on super sports at the momemnt, which are good in the dry, but poor in wet. Next time I'll go 4S or Cup 2, depending if I feel I'll need to use the car in the wet. Currently I don't but I might use it for some longer road trips in the future. We'll see 
13 x Cayman R's on AutoTrader - mostly PDK's.
I see Sasso is finally seeing some sense and dropped the price of their none A/C one.
It's looking a bit busy out there with some Porsche models hey...that was totally predictable as sellers talked prices to the moon then get left holding stock?

I am not convinced that reduction will result in a sale, as in the great scheme of things it is not a huge price drop. It is the only manual with buckets out of the thirteen so its got that going for it, but again you are right the market is slowing.....thirteen R's is the most I have ever seen on AT. A buyers market perhaps for those wanting PDK, tons of choice
