Cheers, Mark! :)

It's a 'new' experience for me, having driven PDKs for the last 2 years (Macan, 991.1 C2 and Panamera 4).

I felt good not stalling it once on the 125 mile journey home. :lol:

With practice, my technique will improve and my changes will be silky smooth. ;)

Loving the rifle bolt precision feel of the 7-speed manual transmission, and I hear that it improves with mileage! :D

I must say it is tempting to be pulled in... 911... Enjoy the next 11k miles before your new XXXXX is ordered :-) :-)
Hi Nosmo. Thanks! :)

As for the next one, am going to try hard to keep this one for 3 years, by which time it'll have done about 50k miles! 8-)

This thread could become expensive. Could I stretch to a more or less basic T ?

Looks good to me, Mark! 8-)

Yellow and white are the two best colours for the T, in my opinion, if there are still build slots available...? :geek:
