Endurance Events
A while back, I am sure I read an article about some chaps who visited every Porsche centre in the UK. Googled around and can't find it now.
Does this ring a bell with anyone??
I quite fancy doing something like this. I planned a route around the dealers and it would be 2200 miles and involve three ferries! One to Ireland, one back again and a return crossing to Jersey! I reckon it would cost £500 in fuel at 30mpg too ... plus the cost of the ferries.
If it could raise copious amounts of money for charity, I would be interested in doing it in the 924.
I think it would need a few people to take part and the advertising power of Porsche UK to make it work. Probably never happen, but it would be a right laugh and a worthy cause.

Re: Endurance Events
It's a nice idea but 2,200 miles would stick too big a dent in my limited mileage insurance policy and the insurance company won't go any higher! I will be struggling to fit Classic Le Mans in during 2014 and that's only 900 miles.
Re: Endurance Events
30 mpg your doing well. I'm getting about 16 mpg although to be fair I only go 6 miles to work and back every day and when I was followed to the garage by the RAC man (see altenator woe's) he said he had to wind the window down because the fumes were making him feel sick . Note to self get fuel mixture checked

Re: Endurance Events
Tux as the best idea. As he gets off the ferry he pulls the injection relay and phones the AA cheaper on fuel.....
