Had a fantastic day on Monday when my girlfriend took me to OPC Chester to have a cup of coffee and a look round the new 911's (a friend of hers has just had a new Cayenne, and knowing I'm a Porsche nut she arranged this through him as a birthday surprise). One thing led to another and the salesman loaned us a Cayman S demo for the day - stunned doesn't cover it :-) I've had three older 911's (two 3.2 Carrera and a C2 964) but I'd come to the conclusion that those days were over, and had come to terms with that.

The Cayman was so good that I've decided "sod that" and will be returning to Porsche ownership in the near future. It won't be a new one, but I don't care. Porsche - everything else really is just an appliance :-)

I think the easier sell for me will be for my girlfriend and I to share an older Boxster next summer. I do too many miles to have one as a daily driver, but a third car should be doable.

The wheels in the picture are the same as the ones fitted my loaned car - maybe they are an option ?. They are nice...
