Peachy, although I can't get my head around those wheels.

It is one of those things you can't really take a picture of to show the overall effect. In the flesh it looks a lot better.
I originally wanted 20" classic wheels, but they are not available on the 50th edition. Not to mention that these wheels are a $6000 cost option (in the US configurator).

				No I didn't forget my extra, (two), passengers - travel time was from LGW.
Totally agree re the GT3 comments.............We discussed the GT3 yesterday -  Obviously I haven't driven either but a lot to be said for a car that is highly capable, slightly more sophisticated yet more tolerable on UK roads.

				That looks seriously good, the retro Fuchs really look the biz.
I reckon in 40 years it'll be back worth what you paid for it  ::)

				When at the Dortmund dealership there was a lovely example there. Do love the wheels tbh as I have adored 911's for most of my life. 
Huge congrats Paul and well deserved.

Ah yes that super duper last forever detail. 
Still amazed at how that stuff works to stop any further swirls etc. 
You'll have to put up a link again.

				Really pleased for you mate.  Out of interest, is there nowhere to get the treatment for the paint in England?

				Not for this product, most other products (such as supaguard or diamond brite) that dealers tend to flog are products that lasts like a wax, i.e. a few months or so.
This is a layer which is inside the paint, hence warranted for 5 years. I had it on my M which I just sold, which I never waxed and which still looked new and beaded like new when I sold it.
