Hi Guys,

Just part-ex'd my 996 for a 997 on a 06 plate in Guards red, looks, sounds and drives fantastic. Hopefully pick up at the weekend, but will have to see.

At last I have been able to upload a photo of my new 997, thanks Paul. Drives & feels fantastic, still very tight & will be taking it over to Chris at Centre Gravity in a couple of weeks for him to check over & maybe carry out some minor treaks.

Someone commented yesterday that it still looks so polished & shiny, so I can only thank Autobahn as they gave it a very good clean & polish before I collected almost 3 weeks ago - so thanks guys.

Stu

great 997. You must smile every time you see her.

That's a nice village shot. Where is that?
