I guess the lack of chat on the forum means these really are just 1-2 per dealer for now, I was expecting more batches of allocation would come through by now.

The PTS Pastel Orange looks ace!

My slot is for September, October delivery. It’s the second allocation for my dealer and they think their last for this year.

All the first dealer cars should be arriving around now, I know of a few due in the next couple of weeks.

GT3 deliveries were slow last year too but 2-3x the number of slots this year. I’d imagine 4RS might be the same next year.

Great news, what spec your going for?
Mine is Oct build, spec is identical to launch spec.
Really excited for this car, as a serial GT3/RS owner

Mine's due in July. It's the only allocation to the dealer at present. Here's hoping a few more get to enjoy the car in due course!

Cool, although when I put the code in it says something costing £228 has been removed as no longer available ??

Congratulations. I note you went with the £10K wrist watch over the magnesium wheels.

I'm sure some OPCs will have insisted on the watch purchase/Weissach Pack/PTS etc in order to secure the allocation...

It’ll be at PCGB Oulton Park track day 31/9 if anyone on here is interested. This car will be used as intended and most definitely not flipped
I should hopefully have taken delivery of my GT4 by then so will definitely come along to see.

If there is a virtual queue for passenger rides, let me know where to sign up laugh

Well I am aware some coercing. must go on, but £10K's worth of a watch I didn't realise it was on that scale.

Hi Sandy.

Not sure what that is tbh. Mine also has PCCBs
Which don’t show on that specification for some reason.
Hopefully the factory does have the correct spec sheet smile

I’ve lost 3.5kg in body weight and saved 10k

Up there for thinking :-))
Not unsprung mass, of course, but still ... good job and a far better way to weight save! thumbup

Now now ladies.

I collect wristwatches and wasn’t coerced into anything whatsoever.

I’ve also actually individualised the watch costing me nearly 2k extra.

The only thing that i couldn’t decide on was the wheels. And as I said above I’ve negated that by losing 3.5kg in body weight.
Mag wheels are a must IMV smile

It took me weeks to decide on them. My concern was seeing a couple of guys damage Mags on track days. It’s quite a soft metal.

Also Mags wouldn’t of motivated me to lose some timber.

Incredibly tough decision, I think it’s the only box I didn’t tick :-0
I actually think the forged wheels look better, and are unique to the 4RS.

How did they damage them on a track day?

Usually road use is what damages wheels
