Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!
- Thread starter daro911
- Start date
Can you just imagine rocking up to a track day in that beast. What a laugh that would be! I agree about Oulton - I was planning to let a couple of the summer events get out of the way but will be happy to round up the usual suspects and try and drum up additional support!
Headrests and rear electric windows - missed those options!!ORIGINAL: daro911 Looks like the RED private Spyder has been traded otherwise its another identical example in RED[] http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/porsche/boxster-987-05-12/porsche-boxster-987-gen-ii-spyder------------------2011/1635254# http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201307257985707/sort/default/usedcars/price-from/30000/model/boxster/make/porsche/onesearchad/used/onesearchad/nearlynew/onesearchad/new/postcode/n20ax/page/1/keywords/Spyder/radius/1501/image-id/252046353?logcode=p
The private seller had it running 20" wheels and this dealer isn't really doing the car any more favours either[

Thinking back John, I think I got that wrong. IIRC now, it was an M1 that kept getting flagged for noise. The GT1 had a moment on a kerb and damaged a corner of the front splitter so just parked it up for the rest of the day. Still made a fine figure in the pit lane.

Cheers Steve, it's a monster, and priceless too!ORIGINAL: Steve Brookes Oh, and here's a pic for Flat 6....I snapped it at our Spa trackday last year.![]()
4.5hrs! And traffic. Well, that must've helped you quickly decide if you've bought the right car; if you love it after a journey like that, you'll love it anywhere[ORIGINAL: Andy Fagan Had a good 4.5 hour drive from Laddingford Kent back to North Wales, Traffic was horrendous! wasn't easiest of jobs getting out when I arrived home [] On another note, my current insurers (Hastings) only wanted an extra £68 to swap policy (Comprehensive) which runs till February. I have been quoted as little as £230/year from Swift and I have had 2 similar quotes of around £600 from Porsche specialists Mannings and our PCGB partners Lockton. These latter ones will allow repairs at an OPC and will include unlimited track days so I am tempted to use one of them come February [8|]
For some reason I prefer the one you found below. I think the design seems to flow more. Although, grafting on the hoops from the 918 onto the one above implies it could be a targa, which may attract more buyers than our roof. Which one do people prefer?ORIGINAL: daro911 Am I the only Spyderman on here who really likes the look of this despite the missing side stripe[]Â Â

Its the white one for me (although I would like to see both cars in the same colour) The Goldy coloured one seems to be a bit balky - perhaps for the US market?ORIGINAL: flat6For some reason I prefer the one you found below.

I am easy as my roof "never" goes on but if the Targa version was as open as this photoshop job I would be happy to have that as one lift off panel is no hardship at all even for the full electric current Boxster owners to handle[ORIGINAL: flat6For some reason I prefer the one you found below.

So - Had my wheels / rear badge painted in gold a few weeks ago - and now looking at the air intake surrounds... I also am tempted to do the wing mirrors - but am not brave enough to do that permanently, and would like to just get the mirrors wrapped. Anyone know if you can get wrap in the correct colour codes, as I spoke to one or two, but they only had an off the shelf gold colour - which wouldn't look right. Cheers simon
