Just popped home at lunch time and found a nice blue 997 sat outside the house. Thought it might be my Christmas present, but unfortunately it wasn't, DOH!

Could have sold it bought a proper one <snigger>

Any way to the point, I noticed, whilst having a quick oggle, that the wheel drums, that connect the front face of the alloys to the wheel hub, where all rust and corroded.

Now surely this shouldn't happen, especially on a car that can only be a couple of years old.

That'll be because the car is one on those poser versions, the correctly driven ones don't suffer from rusty hubs. Now wheel itself is a different matter....don't get me started!
