Yes it is. It does not limit your speed. You have to adjust the limit by pulling or pushing the stalk.
Checked my stalk button this morning, and it does turn the ACC off/on, so my apologies for stating it was for the speed limiter.
So how long have you been driving around with little grey dashes and dial looking at you Allan?

Has anybody got the "speed alerts" set in PAS? They may have a similar function of reminding the driver of excesses.

I think on vehicles without ACC that button is for a speed limiter so it's an easy confusion which I also fell into ;)

About two minutes this morning, Neil, as since I’ve had the car, the ACC has always been set to on, and I didn’t realise you could turn it off using the stalk button 😁🤔

Me neither Allan :D :D :D Mine's always been on, and to be honest I see no point turning it off. Seems like a belt and brace thing.

Watched a video on YouTube, from Volkswizard when he purchased his Cayman 718 GT4. He was originally looking to purchase one from Porsche Reading, however, there were issues with paintwork (awful!!). He found one in Saxon 4x4, still under Porsche warranty. Car was overdue first service, low mileage, but Porsche dealer happy to carry warranty over if service was completed. Might be worth a punt to ask main dealer if warranty could be transferred given it was serviced within 6 months??

I really like the green colour (Mamba Green I think) but not sure if I will be brave enough for it :)

It looks well spec'd and only has 26K miles on it with full Porsche service history from Porsche Tewkesbury :)

A small chance I now, but did anyone on here own it?

Any opinions most welcome please as I am new to Porsche

On the subject of loud or unusual car colours, if you personally like the Mamba Green then go for it.
From our experience a fun colour does make the car that bit more special and endearing to own. :)

Keep us posted how you get on please.

After 3.5 years with Volcano Grey, I would have had Mamba if it was still an option when ordering the current car. Some domestic objections might have been raised :D
