Well its time for an update on the move, settling into my new house slowly had all new down lights, dimmers etc. fitted and lots of sockets and lights in the garage. Luckily my eldest son runs his own electrical contracting company here so family rates apply!
The 996 has landed at Freemantle and is going through the system slowly the good news being its passed its first compliance test but with a few issues. The VIN number on the car does not match the V5 as 1 character is incorrect, a typo I had them before on V5s, as there should be an S an its on the form as a 5! How many times has it been checked - several even by Porsche! the second small issue is the rear child seat belt anchorages which are small brackets on the back shelf as these are mandatory here in WA, they are removing the rear parcel shelf as that's where they should be but we will see. They are confident that these issues will be resolved but have delayed the return of my car to me by say 2-3 weeks will get an update Friday week. The battery survived the journey but did not have enough power to start the car but as soon as a slave to connected the correct way up it fired apparently.
So still no Porsche!
The weather here is hot and 39deg for Saturday glad the house has AC. Next week its autumn!
