Newbie On PistonHeads

[Klippie]

Hello everyone...

I joined here recently when looking for a Porsche forum and after reading through lots of threads this one seems really friendly so I thought I'd better say hello...

As a long time Porsche fan I finally became a first time Porsche owner at the tail end of last year when I bought a Gen2 Cayman S...its better than I could have possibly imagined...

Here's a couple of pictures of my Cayman...





Roll on the good weather as I've some nice roads here in Scotland to go and explore...

Welcome - cracking looking car - I LOVE guards red! I really wanted that colour for my 997C4S but settled for Basalt black in the end. Good site - lots of info and advice here - get onto 911uk.com too

Another welcome. I just love Guards Red on a Porsche.
Looks great.

This site is by a mile the best car enthusiast place on the net. Keep an eye on the events and your local area forums to get more involved.

Nicest wheels I've seen for a while, great choice!

Very nice and shiny. Love Guards as well.

11th March Central Run

As you can see the Porsche community tend to do the central runs - but you are welcome on either.
Willmac used to run as a police magnet for us - much appreciated - sorely missed.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys...

Red is my favourite colour so it was my No1 choice when I went looking for a Cayman, I would have settled for black if no red's were available...its nice too.

Last summer I went for a test drive of a Cayman at the OPC in Edinburgh and one of their cars had the Carrera S II wheels on which I thought looked fantastic so when I saw the car I bought had them fitted it was a nice bonus.

Thanks but I can't take the credit for the shine just now, apart from washing I've not laid a hand on the paint yet. The previous owner has done a great job keeping the paint in good condition but I plan to give the car a full detail very shortly i.e. clay, polish and wax.

Thanks for the kind invite unfortunately I can't make this time my car is off the road just now as I have some planned work to do to it...I look forward to next time though.



I've been doing more reading on the forum I didn't realise there is so much enthusiasm for Porsche cars out there its fantastic...I'am glad I bought one now.


Happy driving everyone...
