HAHA yea I guess.
He wants to take it on the track, now he is really into his driving, he is our company master driver and ex class 1 the works, so he knows how to handle a car. He test drove the Porka and like how it handled. But I think he fancies a bit of posing lol

Harbour Cars are a Porsche specialist, I'm guessing it was there while he was looking for is Cayman....

Ha ha .. just read this thread.
I test drove the one at Harbour Cars, that’s what gave me the bug but just couldn’t get the deal I wanted.( shame as lovely one owner car and they are 30 seconds up the road from my house)
And then I bought the one at Camberley ! how odd.
Anyway back to the point of the thread.
I have owned a cayman S and a Z4M and I would go for the BMW again if I had to chose. Loved every minute of it.

They still have the one at Harbour cars by the way..... Good people as my family have had 3 cars off them in the last year.(hence it was a real shame that they would not move a penny on price !)
