Yes, of course - I get confused easily these days. It was the dodgy 924 with the smoky turbo I was thinking of![;)]
 
Many thanks for the tip. I have ordered one for the kit bag. If only there was a handy DIY fix for the scuffed alloys :(

Punctures are a perennial problem with Porsches as you are discovering.
The mousse will only work if you have a small puncture through the tread section, but a slice in the side wall is a different story altogether, although we did manage to get a member with a small sidewall cut to a Porsche Centre by using superglue and the mousse. [;)]
Many of us carry a kit like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/221463066097?limghlpsr=true&hlpv=2&ops=true&viphx=1&hlpht=true&lpid=108&chn=ps&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0-L&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=108&ff19=0. As at least it gives you a chance to get moving.

Otherwise, why not invest in a set of winter wheels and tyres. It's that time of year and at least you won't be stuck for a spare!. [:D]

Regards,

Clive
