Arranged for mine today - Going for the S Manual. Not got it till the end of July though as most of the dates/times that interested me were already gone!
They didn't mention anything about the mileage restriction though.... girl on the phone sounded quite tasty...........

got the same invite thru last friday,phoned up today and got some Aussie guy on the phone,sorted it all out for the Cayman S,and got an email shortly giving me details of where and what time to pick it up etc.Might be an idea for me to ring the Porsche Dealer in Nottingham up first as its 75 miles away from where i live so i wouldnt get far with a 100 mile allowance lol

What a great experience 
The Cayman S is a lovely motor........if only I had a spare £55,000
The sound of the engine/exhaust is absolutely awesome when booting it, especially in "sport mode"

Oh man, now I know why people who can , buy Porsche's. Thanks for letting me have a go Bruv, that gearbox was the sweetest shift ever, it pulled in every gear right up to , well atleast 3.5k . I love the Scoob , but if I could I'd certainly have one of those. The sport button was great aswell!!! take it easy & I'm gonna try and get a GT2 for a test drive week.

Was going to have mine on Monday, but have now got to work instead so have to phone them and hopefully re-arrange it or might have to cancel as a last resort.... 
A friend of mine in Surrey had one of these offers, but for his day he got a trip to a private airfield and was instructed on the handling etc by a "Porche Driving/Handling Expert" , then "hands on" and two hours later was allowed to take the car on the public road with the "Expert" alongside him - he wasn't allowed to take the car on his own at any point in the day, so it was a bit more like a track day than the one Fozzie had and I've been offered!
Seems different areas do these offer things differently.
