Silver GT3 under covers in the showroom at OPC Reading (some lucky buggers), service guy said they had a GT3RS in yesterday too.

Silver GT2 in the collection area too, could this be Henrys in for an engine rebuild?

That's a bit strange !!
I called Reading today to see if they had one to show me as I'd be in the area in a few days time.
They said they didn't have one yet, with no date from Porsche for their first car - it did sound like a bit of a brush off to be honest.
Might just have a drive past there on Saturday !

That doesn't surprise me.
It'll be a sold unit, ie customers car and why would they want people looking round it when it's been prepared ready for the customer!

I had to laugh.

I went there with my boss in his DB9 cos he wanted to have a look round the showroom and one of the sale rep recognised him (he brought a Cayman for his wife). He wass fairly gutted that he was only browsing but when he said he had brought a friend to collect a car the salesman says

"Is it the GT3"

"Yeah right, I wish".

I felt like saying its that old red one that you have tucked out of the way so know one can see it.

To**er
