A big thanks to Haith for taking the time to organise things, we had a great couple of days and dont mind admitting I'm very jealous of you guys having those spectacular roads on your doorstep. 430 miles and 27 mpg for the old girl while I think Peter is still looking for the hole in the tank of Darth turbo!

I won't even bother checking. 

It's more about smiles per gallon than mpg. If I was worried about that I'd drive a prius. The rattle it developed did put a bit of a damper on the day though.

Don’t know my mpg to this day Pete. Too right. Smiles per mile. Wonder what that rattle is. Heat exchanger shrouds. Loose bolt. Get it up on a lift and poke around 👍

Apart from that it was a good day. Good roads, nice scenery, great people and of course fantastic cars.

Hoping to get it to the garage tomorrow . Up on the ramps and hopefully an easy fix.🤗

Sounds like a great trip, well done to BB for organising

No hole in Darth's tank as on my 930 I could see the fuel needle moving towards empty when the turbo was being used 😲

Top day Haith. 393 miles for me, and I had an epic drive home across the twists :)

Great to meet you all - top group I have to say. 

A few pics:

Pleasure mate. Love driving round these roads. Take you all to Pembrokeshire and over the Preseli Hills and coastline next time 👍

Great photos @Chris_911 👍 Really pleased you enjoyed

Great effort guys, looks like a canny trip.

@Chris_911 hows the new exhaust sounding?

Good - I really like it. To me it sounds very '911'.

It's not especially loud (good) and quiet on a cruise. No resonances to spoil things at any speed.

Lol it is. Before he was "Breaking Bad" he was Hal in Malcolm in the middle. 

Mine has been washed and polished to within an inch of her life. Even broke the hoover out and dusted the inside! 👨‍🎓:ani_nerd:
