Open Day at Porsche Centre Tonbridge

A very enjoyable morning over at Tonbridge today. Aaron and his team looked after us all morning.

Nothing scary reported on the cars that went on the ramps for the free health check. Some new exhaust clamps and a geometry adjustment needed for the 4S :roll:

Plenty of hot and cold drinks, a big platter of cakes/pastries to keep us ticking over until lunchtime :thumbright:

Nice to see some of the guys from 911UK and Steve rocking up from Wessex

Just got in from my other duties after the OPC! Mine looks to have play in a TRE or track rod, just hoping the steering rack is OK

Was a good day though, saw lots of people that haven't been around recently, new members Boxster had a clean bill of health/

Thanks for organising this today leader :thumbright:

Forgot to mention that the new orange Motorsport umbrella fits in the passenger side slot. Half the price of the purpose made one :wink:

Yes thanks Jim, was a good Morning's entertainment! Thanks also to the guys @ PC Tonbridge for their welcome and hospitality

Well done guys, OPC Tonbridge did us proud again, pastries and good coffee

After it's 1000 mile jaunt this week the old Peppermint Peril did me proud, same as Sean's need exhaust clamps, and at long last May have found the bloody water leak I have been chasing for a year with one of the rads weeping :bounce:

Not sure if you saw em Jim, but new members with a nice, clean, early Blue 996 showed up as well that showed no major faults. :roll:

All in all a good day

The Zunsport details are in All Torque for those grilles.

Do I hear the dull thud of the stable door slamming??

Sean Smallman · **Posted:** Sat Jul 05, 2014 7:45 pm

Mine slammed twice before I decided that enough was enough. :roll:

Stops the crud, which causes the rot. Also protects from stone punctures

Indeed, it's not just the new rad or condenser it's the labour removing the front bumper :roll:

yep, its bad enough on mine, 2 man job most of the time

Be nice if you could arrange something like this at other south dealers

Like East London Porsche, as it always seems to be miles and miles away

I missed this one, would have been good to check the old man's Boxster over.

Next one Jason is 18th October, why not have a chat with Reading & see if they'll do one. This is sanctioned by Porsche UK AFAIK
