Btw just test drive a Cayenne. They had a R32 there as well but you are obviously sorted now.

I'm sorted, maybe it was Dave driving around the neighbourhood giving the Golf a last minute test drive for me.

Cayenne, sounds like a pending purchase?

Possible/probable at the moment. Spoke to Steve before going out to drive it to get a servicing persons view. CCS serviced. BIG car but it will be great for towing and long trips. Need to get BB sorted so we have three cars at Taupo.

BIG vehicles. Wouldn't want it as a DD, but as a distance eater and tow car it seems superb. Less than $30k for a full leather V8 with all the bells and whistles seems like a possibility, especially with mechanical insurance. Still being cautious but we have nothing in the garage that would step on its toes. A roof rack is great as well for my windsurfing gear.

My new mantra, "One car for each purpose". Not sure where a GT2 fits. Is it a track or road weapon?

I'm liking that one, it was $70k less than a year ago. I think it went through a few hands quickly. The leather is a challenge but never seen it in the flesh so could be Ok. Looks like a nice car, and I WILL kick myself again for not buying it when it is worth over a hundred next year.
