New members welcome and photos

Hi Alan, Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your Porsche ownership. Nice to hear you're enjoying the experience - and it will get better and better. [:)] 997 Register is one of the most active of PCGB, so keep and eye on this forum. If you've not already done so, join the Club as this gives full access to all sections, useful technical information as well as enjoying many other benefits, including OPC discounts. There has been some talk of a Register Irish tour later next year, so you may be able to provide us with some input there. Nice car and lovely colour BTW. How's the PDK? Regards, Clive.
 
Thank you the warm welcome Clive. I will pursue membership and hope to take full advantage of the benefits that this brings, particularly in learning more about my car and having the opportunity to meet other owners. I will introduce myself to the Irish members contingent in due course and will be pleased to participate in any forthcoming visits you might want to plan. Looking forward to the overall experience of Porsche ownership. Alan
 
Hi Alan Welcome to the club forum and Porsche ownership. A great location and stunning colour [:)] garyw
 
Hi everyone I just wanted to introduce myself and my new 997 C2S cab. I have posted a few times on the 997 forum, whilst looking for a car with sports exhausts and I have finally found one. My previous car was a Boxster S, which I had for 6 years and I loved. I have had the 997 for a couple of weeks and I am getting used to the different handling characteristics, such as engine at the rear and a light front end, PASM which constantly adjusts (sometimes off-putting). However, now I am more used to it, I love it. Here are a few pics (not the best time of year for photos) and I can post the spec, if anyone is interested.

I hope to catch up with everyone on the forum and at some of the events, in the future.
 
Hi Andy, Says "page not found" on Photobucket when I tried the links. You might want to check them. Nice car, nice colour![;)]
 
Hi Andy, Congratulations on the new motor. Very good colour (blue is the preferred colour in 997 Register[:D]). I like the wheels too. I hope you'll be using the Cab. over winter and not hiding it away in a lock-up somewhere. It deserves to be driven![:)] In Photobucket, click on the photo's IMG code and paste it into your forum post. Then change the
link code to lower case ie.
and you should be good. Regards, Clive.
 
Hi Clive and tscaptain Many thanks for your warm welcome; [:)] I will be using the car throughout the winter but not in the salt, if I can help it! I have edited my post and re-uploaded the pics with your suggestion but still no joy. Guess I will have to make do with the ones that have posted successfully. [:mad:]
 
Andy, You could try attaching them to an email and I'll host them from my site or perhaps the files are a bit too large or wrong file type. JPEG under IGB should be OK. Regards, Clive.
 
Hi Clive Strange, as the files are no larger than 279K and the smallest is 89K, so they should load. Very kind of you to offer to host them. If you could pm your em address then I will send them. Thanks
 
Seems to be OK now. I'll email you the codes and you can then insert them in your original posting and I will delete them here. Regards, Clive Edit - Original post now sorted![;)]
 
Hi, Just upgraded from an 02 Boxster and realised my dream. Since I was taken round Porsche Reading at the age of 8 !! and being allowed to sit in those gorgeous cars of the 70's, I was fascinated. I think it was being allowed to kick and dent the back panel of a 928 and see it pop straight back out. That was cool when your dad had a Cortina with dents all over it !! So its taken me 30 + years since to get there..... 911 Heaven....

Great looking car, I hope you are loving the change up form the Boxster, as am I. You are in the same neck of the woods as me so probably catch up at an event.
