Popular Post Jon Panayi Posted July 31, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 31, 2019 Evening all, Ever since I accidentally took a CS for a test drive about ten years ago (long story!) I've been a bit obsessed with buying one. I've been looking for the right car for a while and am collecting an artic silver, 2006 S this Friday. It's admittedly a bit leggy (106k on the clock) but has a full main dealer serve history, recent clutch, new tyres and a host of other things that made me decide to go for it. It's having a major service at Porsche Hatfield ahead of me collecting, who incidentally plugged it in at my request and reported back that the car registered no over revs. I've already bought a few bits to swap out (my girlfriend is far from amused). It has a silver and leather steering wheel that's not to my taste, so I've gone for a GT3 Alcantara one instead. The seats are standard but I'm swapping them out for a set of sports seats. In the not to distant future, the stereo will be being dragged in to the modern day for a pioneer airplay unit. It has PCM1 or whatever it's called... I'm not sure my brain can cope with that many buttons. Can't lie.... I'm very excited! Here's a pic: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windymiller Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Welcome to the COC John 😉👍🏻 She looks a beauty - reminds me of a GT silver 987CS I test drove back around 2010. Bought a scirocco at the time, and then finally got a 987CS 7 years later. It was worth the wait 😁🏎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
