Celsius cold, so just above freezing. Roads all been salt and gritted, it warms up a bit next week so I’ll give all that a wash off, no one likes new paint and the winter crap getting all over your car!

How strange! I’m Warley, Clements Park.
East London, it all came from the wife looking at Macans and Colchester did a last minute “we can’t get a test drive tomorrow” so called the EL and the lady SA Karis got us the area managers Turbo.... deal done next day.
three weeks later, I drove the GT Silver C4S they have had on the front for ages.... order placed next day 👍🏼.

Not many 911s around here, a lady has a 991.2 gts near me that I’ve been looking at for a while... lovely car!

Default Paint wrap

Can someone recommend a detailer to wrap a new 911 in the Salt Lake or Park City area of UT?

Nice. Look forward to seeing it around.

How did the collection go? Assume they couldn't do a proper handover?

it was pretty good, car was under cover in the service bay by showroom.

A bit like Tesco “click and collect”, except instead of broccoli and a loaf of bread a P car popped out 😉

free cup and umbrella, cap is in the post (essential dog walking gear!)

😂. Probably better to be honest. Will mean I'll have to read the manual to see how to use half the things though 🤣

Car looks lovely by the way congratulations. You running it in or did you set a new record on the A406?
