I got the 356 back! Thank Angus at Greatworth. I took it for a run.

Little bit unhappy with myself that the only component I didn't change, the condensor, was the issue!

Ok I will try to fix it then I get home. Strange thought because it said the upload was 100% complete.

Give it 6 months and I'm sure you'll find one on the market... at twice its retail price.

Not to worry though, by that time your S will be a £400k car :)

The new 911R looks nice apart from the red stripes which are a bit pants. I know which one I would rather be driving!
The force is strong in this one ......

Anyone know what a clutch kick is in a PDK car? probably showing my stupidity again.

Exactly as it sounds, the ability to release and engage the clutch. A drifter trick with modest HP engines - under braking, disengage the clutch, rev up & drop the clutch to kick the rear out and initiate a drift.

Exactly right but did not realise you had the ability to do that in a PDK car which is basically an automatic with no clutch pedle as far as i am aware but could be proved wrong, wouldnt be the first time.
