Gorgeous car and in my favourite colour!

Can't wait to see this on a run to find out if my 20yr old Nissan Sunny can keep up!

Very low key (not). Check the centre locks have had the recent recall.

Lower key, rather than low key! Yes, I have a full clean bill of health on my centre locks!

More detail for those interested.... 2010 (997 gen 2) turbo, PDK, sports chrono, turbo aero kit and centre locks (rather obviously). My ideal spec.... From Cardiff OPC (bit of a treck from here in the east) - fantastic customer service though. I'm a happy chap!

Very nice choice. Have a friend who went to a Turbo after a F430 and Gallardo and he said the Porsche was a far better car in every aspect ... enjoy it.

Would have to agree. I drove a v8 vantage, gallardo and 997 and really found the 997 nicer and more fluid. Not as good on the noise front though! (cured that though!)

Time for a name change then - I'm not great on Porka's so I'm taking a guess as my suggestion (I'll get a kicking from Domster or Gewy for not knowing next time I see either of them)

3.8 Turbo good for 500 BHP (well PS in Euros) from the factory.
