I have just seen a stunning looking silver 911R parked near my house in Bristol. I noticed it had number 000/991 on the dash plate but a search on Google shows car 000/991 to be a white car.
Judging by the Stuttgart plates and the 000 number I am guessing this is a Porsche press car.

000 on the numbered edition cars simply refer to the prototypes of which there will be a couple of them used by the factory.

I think we know who parked it there judging by this Tweet from a couple of months ago. I guess he's got the keys again !

Hopefully that means he's doing a 991.2 GT3 Manual vs 911 R comparison video....

Green stripes, silver car and yellow calipers. Specced by a blind man.

I know the car is fantastic but it's no looker.

I should have guessed who parked it there.
Shame he wasn't around as it would have made quite a good photo with the two Harris drivers and their 911s.
Neither me nor my 911 are as photogenic as Monkey and his car!

I really like silver, would prefer silver or black callipers and the stripes are pretty horrible regardless of colour imo

Don't forget the brown interior on top of all that!
