Great spec and congrats on your build slot
Re the comfort access, mine has it and at first I did have security anxiety, first thing I bought was two faraday pouches, the second key is in one permanently and main key in pouch as soon as locked and unlocked.
The boot locking option I find useful after shopping and golf. Iβm relaxed about it now. My main niggle is the permanent key is a bit naff looking and would have preferred start/stop button, even better with a Porsche logo on it
Woohoo - got my allocation and build slot
Great choice of run-around. I had a Twingo 133 RS as my little run-around, and debated to sell it an buy a UP GTI. But they very quickly sold out, and second hand cars (at the time) were non existent. My plan was to mod it up. Bucket seats, lower it, and remap it to around 140bhp. But then the GR-Yaris came out and I secured one of them instead.Kiernan wrote: βFri Nov 17, 2023 12:09 pmNot a problem waiting as I've got something fun to run around in over the winter months. Sold my X3M Competition when I paid my deposit as I didn't want to have such a large amount of cash in a depreciating asset until the new car arrives. Plus, when you've decided to move something on, it's best to do it asap and I fancied something small and light weight.
Behold the mighty VW Up! GTI. It's great fun and so cheap to run - I achieved just under 60mpg going to the NEC last week for the Classic Motorshow

UP GTI looks great in Red.

Good to see a Carmine being ordered!
Gotta love a bold-coloured Porsche!
I ordered a Carmine Panamera in 2017 and a Racing Yellow Carrera T in 2018!

Go on then, since you asked. This was at the top of the Stelvio pass as part of a European tour we did last year, ending up at Monaco for the F1 - that was disappointing, but the rest of the trip was epic . You could say I'm a fan of red cars.Wing Commander wrote: βFri Nov 17, 2023 7:04 pm Good to see a Carmine being ordered!

Not designated but just a PCGB Macan outing, two groups AM & PM probably some overlap in that picture. I think there were 4 carmine more than any other colour!Wing Commander wrote: βSat Nov 18, 2023 7:12 am Was that a designated Porsche parking zone?!

Whatβs the name of the chap who runs the PCGB Macan group?
If itβs still the same chap, he drove a red 991.1 GT3 on a weekend drive to the Yorkshire Dales which I took part in (991 group) maybe 7-8 years ago.
