Please can someone post a photo of the above as I can't find one on the net? I currently have an E92 M3 and am thinking of looking at a replacement and the 991 maybe a choice when 2nd handers drop a bit more. I need to use the car everyday and I often have to pick up 3-4 large full bin bags of stuff for my business.

Also, I live 60 miles away from a Porsche garage. If I buy a 991 from a OPC and it's out of the manufacturers warranty but breaks down would Porsche collect the car/tow it to the garage if I'd extended the 2 year warranty?

Cheers.

What, this bit ??

Front Boot

or this bit ?

Rear Storage

Or watch the end of this which is exactly what you need

You tube Vid

As for collect and return range, that all depends on the OPC you'd need to ask.

Hope this helps..

I dont have a pic but you wont fit 4 large bin bags in any 911 unless you put them inside the car!

Extended warranty comes with Porsche assist so, yes they would pick it up.

Thanks for the posts, they were very helpful. I love the rear luggage compartment - 2 seats that spilt in half lol. It'd probably work better for me if I just kept the seats up and throw 2 bin bags on each seat. I don't know if this would annoy me though and I'd have to check if my 5 and a half foot daughter can sit behind her 5 and a half foot mother ok.

Back will be tight for child.

You wont get two bin bags in each back seat.

Just to clarify and I realise this will be a stupid question for some but I am only 99% sure. Is the only access into the rear luggage compartment i.e the seats smile through the driver or passenger doors?

Yes.

However, the targa's rear window opens like a hatchback but I don't think the 991 targa has been released yet.

Unless you get a 997 targa, then yes!

991 targa will revert to removable panels (as I understand it), so not just a panoramic roof. It's therefore unlikely that the 991 targa will have a hatch IMHO.
