), so I've got the 'other side of the road' thing sorted. I rented a Renault Clio in France earlier this year - that was the first time I'd driven a manual left-hand drive car. TWICE I put my right foot on the brake and tried to shift it into reverse. Very embarrassing, especially with 3 colleagues in the car 
So far, I've managed to avoid this in the 993...
Cheers,
Pat

Congrats Pat, and WELCOME to the 1996 C4 Cab club. We're an exclusive bunch and glad you're with us. What colors and options do you have? LET'S HEAR MORE! If you haven't already, look at the option list (on the front trunk lid underside) and check out the list of options that's online somewhere. (sorry don't have the url but it's posted here all the time so a search will find it) I learned some interesting stuff about my car that way.

Option codes decode as follows (thanks to Charlie Kindel's options decoder):
437 Comfort seat left
445 Wheel Rim Caps with Porsche Crest
454 Automatic speed control
490 Hi-Fi sound system
688 Radio cd CDR210
C02 Equipped with catalytic converter
Nothing too exciting - my last car had the sound processing pack and sport seats.
Hood is black, Paint code is L741 (simply 'Black'). Interior code is PJ - can't find this anywhere, but I think it's Marble Gray, although I guess it could be Classic Gray.
Oh, and a previous owner had Euro springs fitted, so the ride height is a bit lower than the standard SUV level...
Cheers,
Pat
