That will depend on life with the Cayenne and how it looks after I detail it :). That said was quite taken with these pictures nice memory.

Done a few bits to the Boxster today. Mainly changing the wheels. The fronts are now Michelin Pilot Sports they were Pirelli Rossos' I must admit the steering is much sharper with the Michelins.

Is now this!

So it was this:-

I took a new PDK Cayman S out for a run. Better performance, ride quality and some nice styling touches over the previous model. I'm not so keen on the stop/start feature and soon switched it off. The handbrake is more Mercedes than sports car and the superb steering of the old Cayman now has a little less feedback.

Still a very tempting car but needs a large budget for the must have options. New Cayman S or old Cayman R would be a tricky choice.

:D

Just pressed the button to put the roof down, as it's all going on behind you I didn't realise anything was wrong until it jammed up.
I think one of the rams had popped off causing it to operate unevenly?

That's unlucky, not a good start :(

On a positive there are usually lots of parts available on eBay.
