Cayman Register Secretary Kevan Sutherns 07733 318671 cayman@porscheclubgb.com Chances to meet As you read this, the National Event at Silverstone will soon be taking place. Before then I may have met some of you at the Classic Le Mans. Don’t forget the Register Rendezvous at Kedleston Hall on September 10, and the proposed drive on the following day. We had a good turn-out for the Register at Chatsworth last month, with 29 Caymans of all types being on show. As we move into the holiday period, I hope that you all manage to take your Caymans to interesting places and miss the worst of the traffic. Regional events for most areas can be found on the Forum – it’s worth checking, you might find something interesting about to happen in your locality.

New members This has been another extremely busy month for new members, and it is great that you introduce yourselves to me when you join. Keep sending your photos and I will endeavour to get them into the magazine. I am also going to start up a new members’ gallery on the website over the coming months, so look out for your pride and joys. One member, who I think worthy of a mention, is Ted Walker. Those of you who know Ted will be aware that at the end of last year he traded his immaculate 987 Spyder for a 911 GTS. Missing the all-round performance and looks of the Boxster, Ted has changed once again and is now the proud owner of a stunning Boxster GTS. Welcome back Ted. Another long-standing Club member since 1989 is Graham Loakes. Graham has a 1973 911 which boasts a 3.2 engine. Recently, to his Porsche stable, he has added a beautiful 987 Gen 2 Boxster. Welcome Graham and welcome to all our new Boxster members.
Silverstone Classic As you read this you will probably be preparing for the Silverstone Classic, if you are attending that is. I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who will be supporting the Register over the weekend. I have sourced over 100 Boxsters for the various displays and parade laps during the weekend. I look forward to meeting you all, including those members who weren’t lucky enough to show their cars but will still be in attendance with their fabulous models. A full report will appear next month. DIARY DATES SEPTEMBER 10 Register Rendezvous, Kedleston Hall, Derby

Cayenne Register Secretary Geoff Budd 01305 889280 cayenne@porscheclubgb.com Beaulieu Meet There was a pleasing increase in the number of Cayennes at this year’s Simply Porsche Meet at Beaulieu. It was good to meet a number of new attendees and also renew acquaintances with established owners. There was a slight breakdown in the planned ‘designated parking’ arrangements which meant that the SUV contingent was spread throughout the site. However, most managed to link up to exchange greetings and introductions.
