Haha, thanks 77szymon, love being back in the fold.
I actually said "I can't believe how agile and nimble it feels compared to my old C4S" which doesn't mean it's better than the C4S (which I also loved BTW!). However, I think most folk will agree a Cayman S is one of the most agile cars around, period! _________________ Current - 2006 Cayman 3.4 S, black on black on black

Thanks Mark, good to be back!
I think I sold my C4S in Jan 2018, but feels soooo much longer.
Anyway, happy days are here again!
Update - Just phoned Grant at Hartech. It was their own internal rebuild, so not for a customer as such.
“The engine has been re-built and has all new Nikasil plated aluminium alloy cylinders, piston rings, crank shaft bearings, timing chains & chain guide set, flywheel & oil/air separator. The cylinder heads have had basic overhauls.”
He said he couldn't tell me more but rest assured, it was the full treatment, inc LLT! _________________ Current - 2006 Cayman 3.4 S, black on black on black

It’s a savvy buy mate. You should have no bother or big bills then.

Thanks Luddite.
Yes, well loaded with PSM, PASM, Sports Crono, ASK sound etc. For a 13yr old car, it's pretty much spotless without a single bump.
Very pleased. _________________ Current - 2006 Cayman 3.4 S, black on black on black
