Hi All

Just to update - I collected my 2018 GT Silver Cayman Base yesterday.

3) Anyone had trouble with Porsche metal valve caps seizing?

Cheers!
Metal valve caps will seize on any car, not a great idea unless you free them off regularly.

Surely they're not seized on the car you've just bought from OPC?

No, it’s just that when I first viewed the car it had a set fitted, but just noticed that eiether when they wheels were refurbished or the tyres fitted, they have been replaced with normal plastic ones.

Perhaps bullet dodged.

Thanks

All good then.

That's a lovely looking car you've bought.
