Blast around the Lake District [Video]

[redback911]

Yesterday the weather was awesome in The Lakes (for a change) so we dusted off the Cayman (GT Sport) and went for a trip around The Lakes.

Looks a great way to spend the day.

Nice little clip although I`d suggest getting a windscreen camera.

How did the car handle?

Excuse my ignorance, but what's a GT Sport when it's at home (or out in the Lakes)?

ETA Guessing Techart or summat?

Re: Camera

Yes! Its a GoPro HD, and I just ordered a windscreen suction mount. So it should be much better. Also I plan to put a mount in the lower bumper, especially track days. Car handles really well. I have had a 911 and Boxster and the Cayman is sublime.

Yuppy, TechArt GT Sport to be specific.

Most likely I think. Keswick is not our local Booths but we do pop in and we were there about three weeks ago on the weekend. I'll look out for your Cayenne next time :-)

Yes, it was not great. Just waiting on a windscreen suction mount and the angle should be far better.
