I met you on the hill last week.
It looks great in the pics, it looks better on the road!
they have some stance! Was that Sunday? Was just out to ‘charge the battery’
I know the guy who took it if you want the original photo?

Unbelievable man! Health to drive
would invite you out for a drive somewhere.... but that means you taking your car out.......... and putting those spanners down !!

So, the GT3 has had a few runs over the summer…. But ended up doing NC500 last week end with the ‘bike’ squad, who clearly are all getting soft with old age (@mike150 ) leaving the bikes at home this time.
Superb long wk end…. 6 mates just behaving like teenagers the whole time! Some outstanding roads, covered in all conditions.. I didn’t think it was possible to love this thing any more than I did before the trip… it is such a spectacular machine… I absolutely adore it
1084 miles for the trip £364 of petrol consumed, the mate with the DB9 only used £11 more!! Albeit I had mine between 6-9k rpm a fair bit!! While he used the massive torque of his V12!
Thanks to @mike150 for drone shots…. Epic captures.

I used £174 of fuel and went just as fast a GT3 and DB9 in a few places, just a few.......the tighter roads.
Great weekend
The dirty aftermath......

arguably i woudl have used a LOT less fuel.... if i didn't want to hear that 3.8L engine scream !!
i enjoyed every litre of fuel, and will continue to do so before we are taxed off the road into electric or hydrogen milk floats !!

Absolutely awesome, what a car for that trip. I did a Scottish road trip last year in my meagre Carrera, but it was mega.
Would love to be doing it in a GT3 in a few years time.

Great first season with the big beetle
Nearly more miles completed in the 8 months of ownership than the car had done in its first 6 years on this fine earth!! Also more miles
In 8 months than I did in 2 years in my 997.2… and more miles this year than my daily
Today likely the last decent run out of ‘21 was going to SORN now.. but will likely keep on road for Nov until gritters hit.
Great run up the coast today, 240 miles in very mixed conditions. I this thing.
