No, it’s a good question. I don’t now have a garage (nor then) and with my 987 it trapped moisture inside and I had to make a lot of use of water absorbing materials etc. I imagine it is probably better on a newer car but when I was first looking I was looking at 987 Cayman and this has followed through.IanF wrote: Fri Sep 25, 2026 11:16 pm
Can I ask, why a Cayman and not a Boxster? I admit, I’m a tart that loves convertibles but to me it increases the sense of occasion and enjoyment.
Little girl is followed by Monkey, Porter etc and is doing it right, as you did when you were young… time to show the kids that oldies can be cool too!![]()

Re: Today’s want
I was just wondering what a 996 with Aerokit is worth these days. £20k. Nice interior.

At least it’s an auto

It is a Triptronic (sic) and a GT3. That's a bargain!Sundayjumper wrote: Sat Oct 03, 2026 6:32 pm I was just wondering what a 996 with Aerokit is worth these days. £20k. Nice interior.

Yes, even I’m out for that one. Baby diarrhoea.
Re: Today’s want
A late-model V8 BMW 7 Series tuned to 700 bhp would make a pretty decent stablemate for my Z4.

That looks a tonne (ok two tonnes) of fun. What's a 'live cockpit professional' though?MikeHunt wrote: Thu Oct 08, 2026 4:56 pm A late-model V8 BMW 7 Series tuned to 700 bhp would make a pretty decent stablemate for my Z4.

Could you really live with a single temp for your and your passenger in 2026?

Re: Today’s want
At what point does a restomod become a new car that just happens to look a bit like something older? Reading the blurb there's pretty much nothing of the original car left in any meaningful way.

Re: Today’s want
It feels like someone looked at the NSX and took all the wrong lessons from it.
Re: Today’s want
For me the whole appeal of the NSX is to have the car as Senna experienced it. If it weren’t for that connection I’d have almost no interest in it at all.
How about not having a sig at all?

Re: Today’s want
I'm sat at the Suzuki garage getting the Swift serviced (having now owned is 6 years almost to the day) so today I fancy this oddity. 2.4 petrol, AWD, CVT, so completely wrong on all levels I know, and you may not have even heard of it, or seen one

Re: Today’s want
That looks great. My Dad had a 2.0 Sport from new before I was born (as a company car), which he liked, but it was bought back by the dealer after 12 months because of how much rust was coming through already - I'm always impressed that there's enough of one left to restore these days!
