Hmmm..tempted to swap out my carrera 4s badge to 911 - any pics mate ?!
Not on yet as it's due at the detailers next month. This thread has many pics http://www.911uk.com/viewtopic.php?t=87953. The Carrera 4S script in chrome on Maxie's looks especially nice!

This is how the chrome 911 looks on a black one, courtesy of Poker2009.

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.

Eh? Isn't Tesco a supermarket? Isn't its 99RON fuel blended with bio-ethanol? Is that ok for our Porsches? Btw BP supplies Sainsbury's fuel, I'm told. Anyway, prob off subject.
 
Recent weeks:

1. TyrePal TPMS
2. Ctek 5.0 charger

5L of oil from OPIE. Used code snipship to shave £1 off delivery and M3C code for 10% discount (M3 Cutters - BMW Forum)

I like the 911 badge - may look into this.....

Struggling with the dilemma of 4x Michelin PSS when I only need two rears, currently running on pzeros and the fronts aren't too bad...
 
New Electric Garage door opener though looks a bit of a B to fit! :?:
 
Fitted new steering wheel with new airbag! (Gen.2 wheel/airbag on Gen.1)
