Congrats Craig - enjoy the moment - there is not much better feeling than achieving your ambition - except of course what to do next ................... :?

I'll second that- enjoy!

I note also that of course you are surrounded by fine driving roads over there in the Principality, as long as you can avoid Brunstrom's stormtroopers!

congrats fella welcome to the club!

only thing to be really carefull about is oil and water

change your oil every 5000 miles or 6 months as per jap OPCs, also always make sure the water/coolant mix is correct (very important), and try to drive sensible the last 5 mins of your journey

other than that, drive it like you stole it!! have fun.

Fantastic mate. well done!!!

I am exactly the same and realised my own lifetime ambition buy buying a 996 in April. Every time i look at it I just cant stop smiling!!!! As for driving it ......yeah.

I worried like hell beforehand about buying the right one or not but to be honest I`m happy as a pig in wotsit now. I cant offer any advice because I`m new to this myself, but i just hope you have as much fun as I`m having!
