Croctoberfest 2008It would have been great to have the Remus in the mix for the exhaust shoot out. You will most certainly have to represent next time!
Croctoberfest was a most awesome time, and I hope to be able to make the next one as well. We met so many great folks and had such fun at the all the events, it's now on the "must attend if at all possible" list for sure. |

Spare Tire for Cayman SDoctor who?Okay - it's pretty clear how out of touch I am, that I had to Google several of your obscure (to me) references to figure out what the heck you were talking about.
![]() Anyway, if you have a Tardis Key, why do you need a Cayman? ![]() |

Spare Tire for Cayman Si knew there was logic behind it!
spare tire - check spare tire kit - check oil - check tire gage - check umbrella - check flares - check emergency blanket - check astronaut ice cream - check radiophonic driving music - check Dalek repellent - check universal language dictionary - check x-long knit scarf - check Tardis key copy - check you are going to run out of "trunk" space! |

Spare Tire for Cayman SI am most aware of the Porsche roadside assistance. But call me paranoid but I beleive in a gent named Murphy.
I think it might be a good $200-300 investment even if I don't use it. And yes there are holes in cell phone coverage in Virginia, especially near the mountains where the good twisty roads are. Ed |

Spare Tire for Cayman SQuote:
i am still curious as to the need... *pout*
), I just feel more secure having a spare with me for worst case scenarios (e.g. no phone or connection, tire damage too great for the goop/inflator option, etc.).My philosophy is sort of a corollary of Murphy's law - that is: if I carry it, I will never need it. ![]() Ed: Good advice from Elise on checking the Classifieds here also, since there have been a couple sold there. You might consider posting a "WTB" (want to buy) ad there also. |

Spare Tire for Cayman SChecked ebay?If you want one of the Vredenstein collapsible spares, you probably will have to order thru a dealer - you might also check with Suncoast (sponsor) to see if you can get a better price. They are expensive, but I believe it includes the jack and tools in the price.
A less expensive solution is to check on ebay regularly for "Porsche Spare Tire". I have only seen one Vredenstein spare auctioned off (and it went for about the retail price), but you can find the older 17" 986 Continental donut spares fairly frequently, and they will fit the Cayman S (that's where I bought mine). They generally go for between $100 and $250 depending on the condition and whether they include all the tools, jack and cover. |
