Hello all
I'm the new owner of a 2017 Porsche 911 GTS, my first Porsche and something of a 'dream' I guess for me.
I bought it from Dan @ Bonnevilles of Berkshire, who was a great guy to deal with.
It's Sapphire Blue with 23,000 miles on the clock with one previous owner (who didn't use it much for the past 2 years as it was one of a 'collection' of cars).
I'm delighted with it, but slightly nervous at the same time as Bonnevilles only provide a 3 month warranty - and I'm wondering if the general recommendation would be that it's worth the investment (and peace of mind) to get a 111 point check done and to buy an official Porsche Warranty.
I'll probably do 4-5,000 miles PA tops.
No issues so far (though I've done less than 250 miles at this point!) apart from I have noticed when reversing from my drive and turning the wheels to 'full lock' or near full lock, it feels like the front tyres judder or slip across the surface (not sure how to describe). I've been told that this is normal, including by my neighbour who used to be a service manager at a Porsche Service Centre, but it still feels unnatural to me so I thought I'd mention here (for further reassurance, or otherwise!).
I'm based in St Albans so will be part of the Chiltern region I believe.
Cheers!
Damian
