Get it out, you know you want to! Mine's in daily useage to and from the station at the mo, which gives it a nice run. Prior to that I did something like 15000 miles in my first year of ownership (motorway miles).

Anyhow, just a few quite mundane pics of it outside the garage.

Taking inspiration from a recent 993 thread; maybe post some pics of your 997 resplendent in winter patina AKA road grime :thumb:

Was going to ask the same thing :grin:

Guess that's what the ladder is for :floor:

It's a squeeze! I have to reverse the car into the garage and 'slide' over to the passenger side. And even then the door only opens half way :frustrated:

Thing is, when I was looking, I had to discount anything with a wide-body because the garage door frame would have made it impossible to get into the bloomin' garage :nooo:
 
Run out with the Porsche Enthusiasts Club - North West.

RA08, I've seen a few early Gen 2's with that reg, mine being one of them 😬
I've also realized I mainly take pics of mine when it's clean!
