It lasted 13 days...oops.

I feel your pain, N13 LXC! My incoming 911 Carrera T is also due at the OPC late March/early April!

And coincidentally, my private plate ends in 'LXC' :o :)
Funnily enough, mine too! :lol:

I was close to ordering a GTS, but my wife wasn’t happy with it...it hit 6 figures on the spec, apparently that’s the limit...ha

So far still loving the whole Porsche experience...been mostly Audi to this point...

You will buy a 911 at some point... It's inevitable! :lol:

Was only me involved and me in the car so no, just a broken finger and a bruised ego! Was 4 years ago in Feb...

And yep...it was written off...not even a question. Insurance paid out at list, so that was good...(as it was an Audi, i paid nowhere near list...)

My eventual replacement was better (sold it in October in prep for this purchase - held off a while on deciding...)

Will add pics in a sec - iPad hasn’t synced my pics...

This took a weekend to complete, with a Rupes DA polisher and a ton of auto finesse products, sealed with their wax - worked for c.3 months, then needed reapplied (not up with a ceramic coating...)

P.s. gutted to be without this car, even still...

Great cars that suffer from cheaper models in their range.

People always referred to mine as an A4...bit annoying when you spend the best part of 65k on a halo product...depreciation kills them both.

I tried the 4 & 6 when looking at the second RS4, 6 was miles faster, 4 was more appropriate on the UK country roads...

I’d consider another, but want to try some different brands i.e. Porsches! Ha
