Default CSL to Porsche!

Gone the to the dark side a couple of months back now with a 7RS

Love this car to bits and took it to the ring recently (same time Lawsy was out) with T$ and the hooligans, car felt awesome and soon got used to it after some initial shocking laps getting the feel for it!


Just wondered who else has gone from a Cecil to a 997 gen 1 GT3/RS or beyond and what their thoughts were after "the move!"

Mine are all positive except everything costs twice a much but i guess thats just how it is.
Would love to have kept the Cecil as well though and would have one again if funds permit

Both awesome bits of kit

I am a big fan of the porker gt3 RS and if i could have a 997 in orange I would but I was abit surprised how close in performance my CSL was at Spa a couple of weeks ago. Must have been 20 gt3 997 RS's and not one got away and only pulled two car lengths at the end of the straight!

Was expecting more but I would still love to own one

Did our paths cross on track?

There were a few out, I passed a fair few, but no UK ones stick in my mind.
I had a good tussle with a couple of german plated ones.

What days were you out Alex.

They are awesome cars, how is T$ getting on in the PDK turbo S, bet he is quick in that

Good looking cars Alex, and quick when you get used to them.

Do you get as big a roof rack on it?

Lol this is why we love Cecils i guess!

That said they do feel quicker and that 60 odd extra horsepower does make a difference

Not just that though its the look of thing when the garage door lifts up!, sad but true!!
