I went on the R20 Goodwood run last year, is that planned again this year?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello all, After a break of 6 months from Porsche ownership I realised that selling up was a huge mistake - and so today I bought a 2002 996 Carrera 4. It's midnight blue and has the full aerokit with carrera spoiler, PCM, PSM, sports seats and a few other extras I can't remember Looking forward to attending some PCGB events in the car this year and meeting other 996 owners Cheers for now, Gavin PS. We recently moved to Surrey but the R29 forum doesn't look very busy, would I still be welcome at R20 events do you think?

POST 3Original post

Hi Gavin, Welcome back; R20 London meets and events are always attended by a mix of the neighbouring region and if you are free this Saturday then why not join us for an early morning tunnel run and then various things rest of day in East London? For details click here: http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/m.asp?m=302559 If you cannot make it for that, then there is the Ace Cafe meet next Wednesday in NW London. Worth bookmarking this page for London region meets and events: http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/london Kind regards, Kish

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Fair point [ ] Here's one from the dealer's website, I'll post more when I pick the car up next week. Gavin

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Kish, I'll probably be picking the car up next Thursday so will hopefully attend the next event after then. I went on the R20 Goodwood run last year, is that planned again this year? Thanks, Gavin

POST 6Original post

Yes, Sunday, 5 August , meeting at Porsche Centre West London at 7am just like last time...

POST 7Original post

Looks great Gavin, hope you got a good deal from RSJ?![ ]

POST 8Original post

Looks good. Nice colour too. Best change your user name now you have a C4 [ ]

POST 9Original post

Welcome Gavin, Another Aeorkit boy! Getting as common as muck these things![ ] See you at some R20 meets soon.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Great stuff, thanks for that. Thanks all for the welcome [ ] Good point about the name change, is that editable or will I have to cancel the car [ ] Got a great deal on the car (in my opinion) so I'm really chuffed with it - really like the look of the aerokit, much prefer the spoiler to the pre-facelift GT3 version. Counting down the days now...

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi again, Picked the car up last Thursday [ ][ ][ ] - I've been resisting the urge to drive it ever since, not easy when you work from home. I'll now attempt to post a few pictures I took whilst trying to make room for it in the garage [ ] Gavin
