Those brakes on the Mc!

Forgot to update this. It's not done it since and has worked fine, so just going to keep an eye on it and see if it does it again.

No worries. Other option would be a genuine one, I foun this after the ebay one so holding off for a while! http://www.porscheshop.co.uk/acatalog/porsche_key_blanks_key_heads_key_caps.html#a2_21637_2e351

Had the car a full week now so thought I'd stick a couple of pics up and a bit of a review of the car and future plans. It's done 90k, 2 owners, full Porsche and Specialist history, has only ever been to 2 garages! It's very tidy all round, few stone chips on the front end but the rest is in...

Hmmm, not good. However it no longer has this warning, and has been fine today oddly?! Will have to keep an eye on it. Any recommendations for the best place to buy a battery, or is it Apple only?

Technically yes I suppose. I an actually going to see them tomorrow to have a word and see what they say, never know! Thanks Dave. I was always a bit similar, and I'll never drive a 911 until I am ready to buy one just in case there is a massive difference that will make mine feel like a piece...

Very true, but I've been open and honest with them as I have in this thread about wanting to change anyway, that's the reason I offered them the deal, as it makes me take less of a hit on depreciation, and gives them the opportunity to make a few more quid. Everything I've said I've been open...

Nah, would have preferred a 987 but not with my budget unfortunately! Only done 14 miles but been the most fun for a few years!

Because I didn't want to pay that much, and didn't pay anywhere near it. Wouldn't have been anything other than facelift though, so much nicer with clear lenses!

I did, but luckily I've got a digital readout too ;)

Looking to be more common the deeper I look into it to be honest, but an initial google didn't pull up a huge amount about it. Brakes may have be a reason in their case though I guess fitment wise.

Cracked / unsafe wheels. And decided £20k was silly to drop on a car so it was going to have to go either way.

Haha, less to break so that's always a bonus!! Thanks mate, will give you a shout about it. Do kind of want to do it myself as used to enjoy it back in the day, and there isn't too much to polish on this one.

I have a late 2011 Macbook Pro, just clicked on the battery monitor and it's telling me to 'service battery'?! What's the score with this? Has seemed a little worse the last few days but nothing too shocking. Coconut battery says: 77% capacity, but does fluctuate a little, as high as 93% 3...

Should be a fair chunk cheaper than the M3 was, probably a bit more than the FRS due to age I guess. Might take you up on that in the spring dude, appreciate it :)

I'm unsure on wether to get myself another machine polisher and some kit and get it sorted myself for the enjoyment and sense of achievement, or just wait until the spring and pay someone to do it….! This is the first car that's put a smile on my face like my old 182 did 5/6 years ago!

Insurance transferred over this evening when I got home from work so first drive with owning it properly, and what a machine! Everything feels just right, the noise is unreal! In my opinion sounds so much better than the M3 and the RS, even with the roof up! Much quicker than it seems when you...

Looking good mate, sorry I couldn't make it but a lot going off with cars at the minute!!

Welcome to your opinion mate, and the BMW is a better daily car, I had it for 15 months. But now I want a 2 seater convertible and a van for work, so that's the new plan. Yes I have wasted time and hopefully not any money by getting the FRS, but at the time I wanted 1 vehicle to do everything...

It's not quicker by any means, just a different experience. I had a 113k mile, 11 year old M3, they are allowed to have a few problems last time I checked? The FRS wheels no-one would have spotted. And I should have this longer than a month. My most sincere apologies for not keeping a car for...

Thanks dude. Will be sending you a present when it's all sorted too to say thanks for the help :) Thanks mate. It was a choice between a spot on 986, or a ropey early 987 money wise so decided on this route. It is a little dated inside but still perfectly acceptable in my opinion!

So with having some problems with the Focus and not being happy with it, it will be going back to the c**ting garage I bought it from, hopefully sooner rather than later. When I bought the Focus I cleared the garage out for it, and ever since it was playing on my ind a little that I could have a...

Awesome stuff, good drive!

Never know ;)

I'll be there at about 1.30 after work myself. What power is yours Gray? Was hoping to win!

My V12 PEP will be going on the Focus. Jag is staying as it is completely.

Gave the RS it's first clean today since the rain was holding off a little. Decided to give the XJS a bit of a run out since it looked like it was going to stay dry, but within minutes of it being out the garage the heavens opened, so it returned back to the garage for another day! Focus now...

Cheers mate. Broomfield College in one of the car parks. Fuel wise about the same as the Beemer, low-mid 20's, 5mpg with the foot down! Standard at the minute mate. Planning to do a few bits to it, would love the JS400 for £2.6k but to be honest I want a daily driver before I go down the route...

Do it, be good to catch up mate!
