Who is going to the Belfast launch tomorrow night? Mrs Happy and I will be in attendance, but in our 718, not the McCann.

Won’t be there sadly. Daughters birthday party falling on the same night and also another event that I have declined.

Every other Friday night I’m sitting in the house, typical!!

Just change her Terry. Needing a service and new tyres sounds a perfect excuse.

Back home from the UK Cayenne launch.

About 650 guests, so hard to navigate the space! Wife on wine duty, me driving the 718.

Full house of Porsche vehicles on the queue into Belfast OPC. Got parked up, registered and in we go. Nibbles, wine beer all available. (😞)

On display, a le mans 919 car, an American lemans series racer, a 911t a 718 GTS, a panamera, three cayennes under wraps, and out in the garage area, a 911 gt3rs, a cayman gt4 and a few other Gts models, including a macan and 911. Plus a rather tasty 993 targa up on the customer area lift. Yummy.

Speeches from Carl dealer principal, Uel group md, and then the head of Porsche UK, who is a German/ Canadian. Then the unveiling.

Big car! One white, one black and one a green greyey blue which was quite nice in the flesh.

Interior touch controls for everything with haptics which if you are iPhone 7 familiar, will feel normal to you.

Lots and lots of extras on most models. One on display was £117k. Wow🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻!

Anyway, nice to be there, good luck to Carl and the gang. I’ll be back in on Tuesday as my 718 has developed a noise in the Lh door speaker which is a pain.

Pity i couldn’t have met up with some forum
Members.

Apologies for the caps / non caps. On the phone.

Also apologies for the lack of pics. I feel a right pillock photographing cars in front of people. Sorry.

But a special one for wingco who has been so nice to me since I joined this forum. Thanks Simon.

Thanks for the report. Would have liked to have been there but couldn’t make it.

At least there wasn’t a 918 on display, my son would have killed me if we missed that!!
