You know it makes sense! 👍 ;) If only my piggy bank would oblige...! :lol:

Wish I could justify keeping both!

You're not trying hard enough with the man maths, VanB! :lol:

P.S. VanB, I have been admiring the GT Silver bodywork of the 718 Boxster that I have on loan at the moment. It is indeed a classy and refined colour. 😎 I take it that you're sticking with GT Silver for your 991.2 GTS Carrera 4? :ugeek:

Yes sticking with GT silver and basic interior although have kept Bose based on an extended conversation at the OPC.

I do like Carmine on the 911 but not £1,800 worth!

As for the man maths it doesn’t work even for me so a non-starter unfortunately and there are definitely things about the Macan that I’ll miss but I know I’ll be happier back in a proper sports car 👍

Is the Panamera in the garage? I like the way you post 3 things in a row separately... closing in on 10,000 posts that bit faster!

Hi Ian. Yes, Panamera is at Tewkesbury OPC. Having sports tailpipes fitted, but when they opened the packages, Germany had sent two sets of left-hand pipes! :roll:

So I'm still in the 718 Boxster. Not too much of a hardship though. ;)

Hoping that the correct parts will whizz over from Germany by Friday so I can retrieve my car on Saturday...
