So every uk .1 gt3 has had a new engine?
No, only the first xx months of production for the 2014 model year (I incorrectly stated mid 2013 in my previous post, should have been mid 2014, it was the time I bought the first R8 from Belfast Porsche). According to press coverage it affected 785 vehicles globally.

Got a spin out in this the other night. I'd always wanted a GT3, but this is making me think again lol. So well specced from the factory, sounded unreal and was proper torquey. Ideal every day car for the occasional track day, where I fear the GT3 is more of a track tool. But GT3 though 😬😂

Lovely car, but you’ll still want a GT3.

The only car I can see myself buying other than a GT3 is a 981 Cayman GT4.

The salesman at Ashgood who I bought my car off says his favourite 911 is a 991.2 GTS.

I’m the same gav although the 997.2 gt3 would be my preferred car, I’ve never driven one but my fear would be the comfort thing on a long journey, 997 Gts would be a great compromise but the price they are fetching at times!!

991.2s seems a great car by all accounts, a 991 carrera t possibly too or a 991.2 gts

Yeah GT4 is still definitely on the list! Keeping an eye on them

My mate had the 997 GTS before this, bought it and used it for 2 years then sold it for 4k more and got that 991. He wasn't even selling at the time, but was approached by a dealer who had a customer looking for one like his and saw his on the Porsche forum.

Would love that as a poster on the wall, lol.

Yellow is still faster though 😁
