The 911 Turbo

What can I say? No rear doors, not enough space for a decent pram, pointlessly fast, and probably a gas guzzling, CO2 generating monster.
Completely No Swearing glorious!
Frankly I struggle to think of a better way to celebrate success. Massive thumbs up to you, and particularly so for chosing such a stunning colour.
Do enjoy!

Not really my cup of tea, but it does look very very purposeful!
A very beautiful colour though, and does suit the car.
Couple of things I would like to ask though...
The lip on the front, why is it not there as part of the car? To me it almost looks unfinished without it.
Was it as dealer purchase?
I wonder how many they actually sell without the purchaser speccing one.

Each to thier own, I dont like it personaly. I have never liked Porsches. The shape, to me is all too boring. Yes it does have character but the shape is, to me anyhow, outdated. Sorry.
However, saying all that. The colour is VERY nice. Its suits the car so well. The yellow brakes calipers make a noticable difference too.
The colour coded lip makes a big difference. Stands out and makes it look meaner and complete.
The stance of the car, alloys, the uniform of the styling and the whole colour thing really make it a head turner.
Well done Spie. Having made OCUK into what it has become must make you feel proud. You have a great bunch of people under your wing and a great community too. Enjoy your new car I know you will.
Please dont flame me for not liking it. (that applies to everyone)

^ Each to there own mate! Lovely car by the way.
What i've found with these type of cars tho is i have far too much temptation to go quickly round roads and down motorways! Thats why i stopped driving quickly as its not worth not been able to get to work because of a 1 year driving ban!

Not sure if this is exactly the right model but just for a laugh - comparing porsche emissions to my dads micra

Quite surprising
They arent that far apart on noise and other things considering they really should be and 29mpg extra urban sounds good almost
Anyway sorry for the boring interlude, I would have posted in the ved thread but it was locked

Amazing car. The colour even matches this very forum.
I think 4WD is a good idea with car, as RWD and turbo can be a handfull, even with traction control. Enjoy!

Awesome, just awesome. One car I wouldn't hesitate to snap up if I was rich
I've got my receipts to prove that I've contributed towards it. Can I stroke it?Spie said:Finally, thank you for buying from OcUK. Without you none of this would have been possible
One of my friends dads has one of these, as a treat, on the last day of school he was allowed to drive it to and back school 
, it was manual gearbox though.
Much more impressive in the flesh imo, even more in red.
The jammy git wouldn't let me drive it nor take me out in it.
