Hi All
I’ve been waiting for a nice day to take some pictures but have given up!
Firstly a big thumbs up to the staff at South London Porsche in their new showroom in Sidcup, Clayton our salesman has been great from order at their pop up showroom in Bluewater to delivery from the new showroom he has been great, keeping us up to date with phone calls and spending time at handover going through all the controls with my wife showing he really does have the patience of a saint. Also Chris Butler the dealer principal a friendly guy who clearly knows what is going on in his dealership and leads from the front.
Now the car, very pleased with the package, my wife finds the steering a little heavy when parking so having the steering + added at the end of the month. I do find the stop start a little sluggish and find you tend to get a sharp lurch from the traffic lights, I therefore run in sport for most of the time which turns stop/start off. In normal mode I find the throttle response rather tame but that’s probably due to coming from a RRS SVR. Internal fit and finish is good and the 18 way seats very comfortable.
The panel alignment in general is ok but the junction of the bonnet, door and wing on both sides is poor and going back to be adjusted.
Happy with the car overall and would recommend, glad I switched.

Congrats and the full GTS interior is lovely 👍

I always disable stop start as soon as I start any car...

Power steering plus makes parking it lighter. Especially with 21” classics....
At higher speeds it firms up.
GTS 😀

Yes, its just a software update - mine was done at PDI (a bit of negotiation after my PCM delays in mid ‘16😉)
