Had my Cayman S for 3 months now and still absolutely loving it!

But I seem to remember that included in the purchase price was half a day training at the Porsche driver centre.

The salesman told me when I picked the car up that the invite would come after a while....
Does anyone know how long it normally takes for the invite to arrive?

They are called Porsche driving experience days and come in at 600 quid from memory:

The PDE isn't really 'driver training', it's primarily intended to demonstrate the car's features and capabilities.

You will get a bit of advice and tuition, but Millbrook is a proving ground where the instructors allow you to do things that aren't possible on the public road.

Definitely worthwhile.

Mrs XXPLOD did it in our Cayman S. Excellent day out. Meet up for breakfast at nearby hotel, then you go off with an instructor in the cars. They do all sorts of stuff with the cars at Millbrook. Mrs XXPLOD loved it.

Your OPC should inform PCB of your purchase, if they don't then you may not receive the invite..
My OPC failed to do and and upon being chased finally sorted it out.

two weeks time.....
