What did you buy your 997 this week?

A fantastic idea replicated from 993 forum ..


Tax disc
Insurance
Programming to open windows and sunroof via key

(Extensive search for cruise control stalk....on going)
 
Tank of super unleaded!
 
LTT and an air freshner, both now fitted and a 3rd radiator kit, not yet fitted.
 
I bought some LED bulbs for the interior after having an e-mail from OPC Bristol confirming that fitting them will in no way void any part of the warranty :thumb: i'll get some photos up when i get round to fitting them.
 
It's a good job this thread is not "This month". the list would be rather long.

1. A chrome 911 emblem (99755923100).
2. Gtechniq C4.
3. PASM Control Unit (99761811504).
4. Headlight washer jets.
5. Bonnet respray.
 
C4 is my next purchase foe the callipers!
 
A nice shiny respray on the front, no stone chips for a while.

Hmmm..tempted to swap out my carrera 4s badge to 911 - any pics mate ?!
 
I've got a black one and it looks great but also subtle :thumb:
 
Owned it 3 weeks tomorrow and this week I've treated it to a fair amount of treats..

3rd radiator kit
New stone guards
Oil filter
LTT
5mm spacer kit x 4
Carrera S door decals
10l of oil
H&R springs
Silicon intake pipe

Shame only the decals came for the weekend!
 
Halfords smartcharge 200 battery charger. Quite good and prob pay for itself keeping battery topped up between use. Reserve on line and it's £10 cheaper.
Paint from eBay for the stone chips, but not brave enough to use it yet.
5L of Mobil 1 0w40. At current use will last 5000 miles.
Frequent visits to sainsbury's who have the cheapest 97 octane around me.
Next week's treat is to have sport mode retrofitted by OPC Nottingham.

97ron is garbage imo. I wouldn't put any supermarket fuel in my cars. Not enough people buy the premium fuel there, it stagnates.


I advice Shell V Power 99ron always. If not Tesco Momentum 99ron as the second (final) option. If we tested some supermarket fuel at MON (Motor Octane Number) the standard vs 'premium' will be very close because the good stuff isn't often sold. I had a go at a Porsche owner in a Shell garage who squeezed 95ron in his tank. Tramp.
