Weekend loaner

Post by pvr » Mon Apr 28, 2014 4:32 pm

My M left me this sunday, and as the new 911-50 has been delayed, I had a toy car for the weekend.

Unfortunately, bit chavvy looking with the clear rear lights and it was a PDK model which is rather boring, but other than that was entertaining to drive around in. Nice noise with the sports exhaust.

He might get lost around these parts as apparently the gutters are taller than him :-) I'm just joshing 535boy but I couldn't resist jumping on the bandwagon as the boys seems to be "giving it to you!"

You've somehow managed to end up looking gayer than you did in the Z !!

Car delayed?  Is this due to having fire retardant seats fitted??

That's the one they are lending me in a couple of weeks for 3 days!!

Taking it on a jolly to Gloucester.

Agree on lights, obviously they are the best wheels though. Much better than the fuddy duddy ones on the 50th anniversary one.

Other friends 50th anniversary turned up last week, I told them you could wait for yours.

IT-when I have it I'll come pick you up for a dirty weekend. I've just come back from Anglesey then

Very nice but the 50 will be superb. Unsure as to the reason for the all clear lights as they really don't suit it at all.
