Hi all .... not been on here for a while ( since selling the z4mc!) but had this for a little while now . Took quite a while to find the spec I was after but well worth the wait !
If anyone is in the market for one I’d happily meet up and take you for a drive / good look over it , same as some good people on here did for me when looking for a z4mc

Thanks chaps
It’s just one of those rare cars ( IMO) that does it all ... it’s beautiful looking , amazing sound track , chassis is sensational , build quality and yet still classy . I’m over the moon with it . Still very daunting ( for me anyway ) spending this sort of hard earned money on it and I’m under no illusion that I’ll loose a chunk on it , given the way everything seems to be going ! But ultimately it was the right time for me to buy a realistic dream car .

Have you got wing back seats? Mine hasn’t and I hate the seats with a passion, so much so the car is going, maybe with a 718 if the wing backs are better.

Yes has the sports plus seats .... which I think that’s what you mean by wing back ? Doesn’t have the full on fixed buckets ...which I love the look of but found uncomfortablejohn-e89 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 27, 2019 9:24 pmNice car BB...Bodyboarder wrote: ↑Sun Jan 27, 2019 8:48 pm Thanks chaps

Your Cayman looks great Bodyboarder.
And that's a kind offer to forum members, but an indication of your whereabouts might be helpful.

In my opinion this Cayman is the best car Porsche ever made.
I used to have two boys and a girl. Now I have two Men and a Woman.

I had a manual 987.2 Cayman S before the Z4MR. Had I been able to step up to the 981 S I think I would have tried to cling on to it. I had to sell mine to complete some house renovations. That's an awesome car. It just does everything better than all but regular track drivers can. I haven't really driven my roadie yet ( crap gritty Scottish roads). But I am looking forward to a completely different experience. Enjoy the Cayman, looks fantastic.
