My car was in to OPC Wilmslow on Tuesday to have the idler pulley bearing and alternator replaced. Thankfully this work was covered under warranty. Normally this would be a bit of a pain however I had agreed a loan car and booked a few weeks in advance. Now being used to ALM who's loan cars tend to be the Honda Jazz or Hyundai shitbox and before that BMW where I ended up with Vectra's (very often.... ) I was a little suprised to be offered what I ended up with.



A brand new 997 Carrera 2S. The only downside was I had to insure it. My insurer eventually obliged although they did bulk at the 75k value and charged me

 

 

Now that...is a Porsche.

 

As loaners go, it could have been worse....

Nice

 

Fantastic!

Your 996 looks better from behind and the 997 looks better from the front IMO

 

I agree with Jamie - Lee's 996 does look better with the red rear reflector at the back, but the round lights look much nicer at the front.

Hmmm. Now, what has round lights and a red reflector at the back.....?

(Not too sure about the new 997 wheels either - a bit fussy. I prefer the look of the Turbo wheels on Lee's car)

 

Mark agrees with me , that's a first

 

I really hate the red reflector. It's so 80's japanese.
