well...

thanks a lot guys!

Hill6666 - will test it out and get right back to you!
TY328 - What do i like/dont like. Not much I dont like about it. except the big *** smirck I have on my face every time I get in is starting to hurt. But seriously... If I HAD to mention a few
1) radio reception is not good. not getting anywhere near good quality sound
2) compared to the Range ... the Cockpit is a bit tight and getting stuck in gridlock is extra annoying
3) could do with some more low end torque. 2&3rd gears are monsters tho.
4) and not having nice roads to really put her thro the paces is by far the most annoying thing im going thro... I live in a sand pit and straight roads are a lot easier to build than windy ones.
TARATKO - clear side markers as in the 'back windows'? and what do you mean by clear bra? sorry but not up with the P Lingo yet
Cap'sx51 - I had a hard time man -- "a penny for your thoughts" was a frequent question on the honeymoon
Nice one Roos! had a bit of a chuckle on that one. HAVE to say White is stunning. especially in the bright sun light we get here in Dubai. But i think Ill stick to what i got for the meantime

happy driving guys!!!

Hi Rookie,

great looking car. Love that rear shot, looks fantastic.

Head out towards Al Ain, and from there head towards Jebel Hafeet. Some great low speed corners on the way up the mountain. Decent enough hotel at the top for some refreshments.

Another option would be to join the Porsche club here. I think they head out on some nice drives. Met some like minded people and shoot the sh*t on all things Porsche.

Clear side markers are the indicators forward of the front wheel arch. Your's are clear anyway i think. The American cars come with amber one's which most people replace with the clear option.

The bra is protection from stone chips etc. Its a clear film that adheres to the body. You can do particular areas of the car, or the whole thing. You can do it here in Dubai, as i have a quote for mine when it comes. Full front of the car forward of the windscreen and rear arches is in the region of 5000 Dhs. Thats for the venture shield product, which seems to get good reviews.

Mine arrives in May so will be looking out for you.

A Porsche and honeymoon within a few weeks of each other....happy days !!.

Congratulations on both, enjoy !.

Rgds.
