I really like the Carrera classic wheels, had them on my Cayman.

Lovely looking car, Semerka and I would be interested to see the difference between the 2 silvers you have in your stable if you are able to take a picture of them side by side.

^^^ That would be a great pic. I predict, depending on light conditions, that the GT Silver will have a warmer glow and the Rhodium Silver will be a bluer shade, recalling my Rhodium Macan. :geek:

Inclined to agree, WingCo but would still be good to see them side by side

8-) great colour combo, I have become a convert to red interiors in last few years (partial at least) yours looks nice. The cat travels fine in mine the carrier sits on the folded rear seat not sure how much the cat particularly likes the sports exhaust though :lol: :lol:
Not sure how you are going to get a Labrador to lie still there :lol:

I was unsure about the Carrera Classics as they are diamond cut, so any stone chip will be more problematic. But they do look really good.

The silver paint shades clash! :lol: I would have preferred the GT Silver, which is darker, greyer and looks stunning freshly washed. The Rhodium does have a light blue tint to it certain light and is a brighter silver. Simon is right, the GT Silver is warmer, Rhodium is ice blue.
But hey ho, I will live! ;)

By the way, Ruby is still unwell, there must be some other problem, she still has an excessive smoking habit. So back to the drawing board. :cry:

As it happens, I do have a photo I took when I met up with Red5 at about 6.30 in the evening on arrival from my shopping trip in Cardiff:

Thank you Ferdie!

I have always liked red leather in cars, but at first I dismissed this one as it is all red, including the door strips. But in real life, it looks good and feels special. It's not bright red, like it is in the Macans, so that helps.

Our labrador is fortunately very good, he stays put, he can still turn around and sit up if the moods take him. It is much more snug for him in there, but it is only for an occasional local trip, so it is perfectly fine. I filled out the back seats with cushions and ordered some cut-to-measure dense foam to fill out the foot well to make the area wider and easier to jump in. :D

Interesting colour comparison. GT Silver is so much nicer and the picture reminds me of what an awesome car the Cayman is [emoji106]

Indeed, GT Silver is our favourite too, Rob's GTS looks very manly! :lol:
