Funny. But true.... One day my boy, you too will have sufficient experience to make statements like this

You got me thinking Mac, and have wasted the latter part of the afternoon listing all the cars I’ve had since 1982, (Toyota Corolla). I think I may have missed a couple but I’ve got 63 listed with 992 as current.
It’s amazing how many motors come and go in a lifetime of motoring…

When I have trouble getting off to sleep, I try to remember the cars I've owned in order of ownership. I usually get as far as an Audi 80 back in the late 80's then drift off My very first car was actually a Beach Buggy GP on a Beetle chassis. I loved that car and often think of trying to get another.. But that's another story..

So on average you only keep a car for around 7 months before moving it on? Not long before the 992 goes then

Yes sort of. I’ve owned two and even three simultaneously (have two at moment) but have never kept cars very long. I think the longest was about 2.5 years.
992 is by far and away best car I have ever had for many reasons, so it might beat the current record!?

I also quite enjoy cleaning the GTS standard wheels - I use a wheel mitt and the gaps in the spokes fit my hand and the mitt perfectly. Simply wipe up and down each spoke.

Of course there are probably simpler wheels - but they won't look as good!

Spokes fine - but how do you clean the calipers and the vast expanse of wheel behind the spokes?

Unless your hands are the size of shovels then it's not a problem. Minimal break dust helps especially if you use a pressure washer any dirt on the calipers just disappears. As for behind the spokes; that's concours standard Less visible on black wheels helps, I guess.

But honestly a bit of wheel cleaner and a jet wash has been enough for in there - never really that dirty. I like to 'detail' but I rarely go the whole way on the areas you can't see.

I wouldn’t use this, the plastic tip inevitably falls off exposing vicious twisted wire ends that will cut grooves in your alloys. Wheel Woolies are the way to go. https://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/whe ... b-kit.aspx
