If I was Porsche GB I’d be very happy with this review as it shows how many of the people who will buy this car will use it instead of the usual how fast does it go.
To date, I have seen at least a dozen videos on the 992 from around the world. I find that the reviews made in England were among the most serious, competent and engaging but this video in particular really thrilled me. This is what we, my wife and I do (without dogs !!!), weekends around Italy and Europe on our 958. Sure, a lot of space being an SUV, but if I still had some doubt about versatility, possibility of daily use and trips with luggage with this fabulous 992 this video has really convinced me. I don't think I really need a car as massive and spacious as the 958 (my wife also has a small car that drives around town) so I think my next Porsche will definitely be one of these jewels. Great video, thanks for sharing it !!!👍👍👍👍
What a great video Pete. I love the dynamic between you and Mrs Petrol Ped, it makes me laugh especially not to kerb the alloy 🤔. The car looks amazing and that roof mechanism is just a pleasure to watch, typical Porsche just amazingly engineered 👍
Hi Pete, I think a way to boost your subscibers would be to have Mrs Petrol Ped do some reviews with you. I know she doesn't like being on camera but I think it would widen the appeal of your channel as she loves driving and had her own great view on the Porsche yesterday. Also ypu can tell that you are soul mates aswell as being husband and wife as the chemistry between you is great and makes me laugh. Anyway just a thought, have a great weekend 😁😁
Nice one. Lovely car. Years ago we were parked up at Nuits St Georges services on the A31 in France and this elderly couple parked next to us in a well used 993 Carrera, after they go out, the bloke tipped the passenger seat and out of the back got this red setter, happy as Larry. Ever since then I've tried to sell the Mrs that getting a 911 would be a sensible, family choice but sadly had no luck... I'm hoping to have more luck with a Taycan.
It’s reminding me that at this time last year I was enjoying a couple of hours on the Porsche track at Silverstone in 911 Carrera 4S. I agree with Mrs P that it really sticks to the road while giving the confidence to push a little harder. Hope you both enjoyed a much needed change after a couple of difficult months.
What a great video. That’s a great mix of lifestyle and cars. You should do more! The hotel looks amazing and what a stay for the dogs too. Happy birthday Mrs PP! You were brilliant! Loved the head shaking behind his back! Haha!
Glad you enjoyed a little bit of my area of the country. I live about 30 miles from where you stayed & have relatives who live in Moreton -In-Marsh, not too far away from there either. Like you said, great driving roads there too.
Probably the best channel on you tube. I use to watch on my own but now my wife mandates she watch it with me. We adore the Petrol pooches, such characters. (Incidentally what breed are they?) Just watched the Q&A with Mrs PP too, priceless. We're expats in CA USA, no kids, love our dogs and a garage of nice toys, for which we are truly grateful, so we kinda relate to you both. (Hope you dont mind me saying so) Keep up the good work, thanks for being there and doing it so well.
Fox Hill Manor where my grandfather worked as a chief stockman many, many years ago. He was also employed at Guiting Grange & lived in a Tythe Cottage where my dad & his five brothers were raised. Such a wonderful part of the Cotswolds & great place to stretch the Porsche’s legs & stop off for a beverage at one of the local pubs.
First of all, happy belated birthday to Mrs PetrolPed. Thanks for the great video. I loved the lifestyle aspect, that location looks awesome! I hope you got to drive it a bit more, Mrs PetrolPed seemed quite fond of driving it back home 👍
Love the Cotswolds! Been to Broadway once and as was said, it’s proper chocolate box. Great review by Mrs PP, she knows a good car when she drives one. That hotel is beautiful. Hope she had a great birthday weekend.
I was appalled at seeing the top go down so nicely but the windows automatically go back up! In my youth I became a purist that never motored my convertibles in that configuration, though when alone a tonneau over the passenger side to keep me warm on a cool autumn day was appreciated. All that said, windows up for your situation seems acceptable and a good compromise, probably one I will have to make it I am ever to be allowed to have another open car again. Lovely car otherwise, and hope you folks have had a grand time on a well deserved getaway. Happy Birthday Mrs. Ped.
Funny, I have owned a soft top for over 15 years and never driven one with roof down and windows down. Always have the windows up. You get put the Porsche’s windows down 👍
This is the type of review we need to see more often. Let's face it most reviews are made about how fast you can go and hold fast it can go around the corner etc but those reviews are just eaten up by people that are just dreaming about the car. What we really need to see is more practical reviews plus performance included for those who are actually going to buy this car and who are considering all aspects of Life while driving a Porsche. Great job
Nice to see Mrs petrol bed again and it just goes to prove how usable a 911 is. Lovely colour combo and water beautiful place to stay. Keep doing what you do.
I have not been to the Cotswalds for years. Beautiful. So was the car. Silver and maroon red very appealing. Thank you for that tour. By the way, I like how you have your dogs in on the gig. Cheers!
Happy belated birthday T .... what a great video .... loved the double act ...the pups and Foxhill Manor..... and especially the Porsche ..... like Mrs P, Mrs M is saying no at the moment but how long that lasts for I don’t know ...... let’s see whether you or Paul gets one first ! 😀
Yes Peter he does ...let's see who is more good at it or who out of T and me gives in first ... although a 911 is a bit out of the price range but a 718 could be a possibility 😉
Very enjoyable video Pete. I've just realised it's a year later than you posted it! I thought you had bought Mrs PP a taycan for a second there. Enjoyed the format of lifestyle and car and thank you for the hotel recommendation too!
I live in Broadway and it was super cool to see all the familiar routes I've took the Boxster down. Even the bumpy little track into Snowhill..! Kudos as it's the first 911 Cab that doesn't look like a fat arsed hunchback... Nice car, nice vid...
Loved this video. Perfect blend of Porsche , personal, pup and pooch with the added bonus of Mrs P including the peasant comment which made us laugh. The Porsche is gorgeous and I think you need to pop one under the Xmas tree this year for Mrs P 😊 . Even a lotto win wouldn’t move me from Mini (I would just have more than one) but I do love to see all these beautiful cars.
Aw happy birthday Mrs Petro Ped! Hope you had a fab break - thanks for letting Pete bring us along for the ride! Aw memories right there. I studied in Cheltenham - whenever my dad came up to visit, we’d try and find a nice country pub to go to with a few cracking driving roads for his 87 911 to stretch its legs! He’d love blitzing it back home the country way. We did broadway once, stunning place! Yup, they do love to lift their skirts and show a little more than a bit of ankle! Nice to see Mrs Ped - think some hints there to look at a deal on a 911 there! 911 very practical - was amazed how much we got in ours for a weekend trip to Le Mans. Shame we sold it - my dads ears still prick up when he hears the air cooled singer sewing machine engine note! Mmmm - Charlie and a 911?!
Great video as always Pete. Glad you and the 3 girls had a great break. Just looked up the hotel g/f birthday soon may follow your lead and take a trip to Foxhills. 😂
Happy birthday Mrs P!! Yes, although I currently drive a Lamborghini Astra Estate, the 911 range is what usually floats my boat! And this one is really lovely. PLUS you have a pretty girl and two cute pups riding with you!!!!! Then the chef comes to you to ask what you'd like, while you and said pretty girl are lounging in a swing chair made for two! Not to mention the subtitles naming her Mrs petrol bed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hehehe! Truly a weekend made in heaven! Enjoy! 😁❤️
Shwmae Ped, sounds like you and the family (yes pups included) had a great time and have to say can see what you are saying about the Cab being soooo usable. Look forward to the next vid 👍
Lifestyle and car review, what a great combination! Nice to see Mrs Petrol Ped on camera again. Condolences to you both for your loss of family members, and belated Birthday wishes to Mrs P. My only criticism is, that the video wasn't long enough!
A great video Pete, your wife (and pups!) are good sports! ;) Can't beat the Cotswolds, my wife and I have also literally just come back from The Fish hotel earlier last week, also for my wife's birthday! We stayed in the Farmhouse :) Alas, we did not use my RS to travel there, we had too much 'stuff' so ended up in her Nissan X-trail. Not quite as much fun as the RS, but comfy nonetheless...
Hey Peter, Loved the lifestyle and car review video. What a lovely treat not Mrs Ped’s birthday. Also nice to see a real world review of a non Gt product Porsche from the expansive 911 range. Great that the weather gods were also on your side.
Great Vid, as always Pete. Great venue! While I await my Taycan, I have but myself a 911 targa 4, and as you say it is a great daily. That is what I am using for. The targa, has more space. Mine is a 991.1 and getting up to 37mpg on a run and down to 24 when having fun. Average is 31mpg. Sound awesome, looks awesome. You should definitely get one!
I only get 23 mpg (uk gallon) with the sport mode off and 20 with sport mode driving only on country roads where I do push it hard. 991.1S cab. I suppose steady highway it could do 30 but never tried it.
Awesome 😎 vid content and a big Happy Birthday 🥳 to Mrs Petrol ⛽️ Ped. Yah Mrs Ped look 👀 we’ll settled in the Porsche. I’ve had some of the Porsche’s in my past and I have loved them very much. As for Dinner 🍽 or Tea 🍵. Where I come from it’s TEA TIME, I’m from Yorkshire. As for the location I just loved it. So beautiful 😍 around there I will be booking myself in Foxhill Manor when the COVID-19 calms down somewhat. Any hu, please stay healthy you 4 and both drive safely. 💋
My brother in law had a new one delivered last December, sent it back after a few weeks. It had major problems with not starting and then cutting out at traffic lights. Worst Porsche he has had, now gone back to a Boxster GTS.
Belated happy birthday to your wife. Great car, I’m working on my wife for a 996 C4S convertible. Spotted your Ventoux T-shirt, rode up there on Wednesday in Zwift, my legs are still feeling it 😭 Keep up the good work!!
Wow you lucky bugger Pete! That is just my dream everyday car. Wow just wow! 23:38 and I watched every second, I don't do that more than a few times a year.
I have worked out if we hadn't had children I could probably have bought a Cayman! Love the video and the car those red leather seats look so comfortable, great video and well done on treating Mrs PetrolPed and the pups are very well behaved.
Petrol Ped, I can see it now, an upcoming episode of Petrol Ped will surely be titled Logan’s Run or An American Werewolf In London. And on that note, I would love to see your review of the C8 Corvette when they eventually hit the UK.
I couldn’t have said things any better. I totally agree with you. This is a car very hard indeed not to enjoy ! No wonder people fall in love with 911s, despite their few shortcomings. And my oh my what a week-end you, your wife and your cute little dogs had. Fabulous region, great hotel. Well done 😎
looks up price. HOW MUCH?!!!! For one night?! But very nice though! Amazing that even with the very flashy weekend away, you still love P.P. Love the car, love the hotel, but think I might be looking at the Treehouses as they look great fun. Love how Porches now have such exceptional interiors now. Take one look and they walk all over anything from say Aston. I really thought Mrs PP would think it a bit silly, but she really fell for it, apart from the price.
I felt relaxed as you both looked, and a bit jealous too!!! You are so fortunate as not only a lovely brand new Porsche to drive about in, but also a lovely part of the world to stay in. The pups are relaxed too as they are familiar with their surroundings. So now we come to the practicality of the 911, you are of course joking, don`t get me wrong lovely car but you would need to be a stick insect legswise to be in the back seats, similar to a review I saw years ago of the Audi TT with its baby seats in the back too. Never-the-less its a sports car and they pretty much are not for going away with lots of luggage, if you can afford it, you buy what you need, and then discard it after you have used it, is that not correct Pete? The Taycan however that`s a very different story Roger Bailey already did a review and it seems quite nice!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for your review…. We have been running an Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio for four years now and it’s absolutely brilliant…. But think maybe we just fancy a change and like you we have a dog but no kids ( so small back seats ideal )…. However, having driven C4S and C2S after being spoilt by the steering in the Alfa. The C2S is in my opinion a better steering, handling car…. Just feels lighter and sportier on the twisty bits…. BOSE audio is brilliant rather than adequate standard audio ( that’s a big consideration for us )… Boot not as big as Alfa and actually nowhere hear as fast. But I’m getting to the stage in life where I don’t want to drive around everywhere like my trousers are on fire!!! Ha ha. As regards Mrs Petrol Ped and comments about the Taycan???…. I’d take the cabrio every time. It looks sensational aswell. Goes well and is actually even reasonably economical. Goes without saying Porsche build quality and reliability etc. Thanks We are now seriously looking for a suitable car. But we are very picky. Enjoy your channel though Regards Rog, Maxine and Foxy dog.
good evening PP, Firstly Happy Birthday to Mrs PP 🎂 (loved her comment about Dinner 😂) so long as you let her drive it to, i think you might be able to persuade her 😉👍
Good evening to you both. I had to laugh at the kerb comment. Looks a lovely car, but there would not be enough room for us. Kate would have it for a sunny day car though.
Hi Pete, please say HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳 for me to mrs p. The hotel looked just perfect plus being fortunate in having the good weather. I enjoyed the review on the Porsche and mrs p gave another angle to it . But me personally I’ve never liked convertibles the are just not my cup of tea. Have a. great week looking forward to the next video. 😀Phil
That’s made me really appreciate having one of those as it’s all to easy to regard it as “normal”, it’s a 991 but still a fab car. Top tip Peter, you don’t have to buy a new one at ££££££, and Mrs PP looks so good in one. Also Pete, now you’re there, perhaps a collared shirt??? instead of the merch😉 Edit, again, how come I’m still getting promo emails from Goodwood when Mrs PP is on holiday 🤷🏻♂️😄. Happy birthday to her BTW.
Thanks for a fabulous video which shows that such cars can be made usable. All I need now is a friendly bank manager! Maybe one day but with Porsche’s attitude allowing both you and Mrs P to test drive the car was really great. My wife does most of the driving nowadays so it’s really useful to see how cars such as this can be practical and to get the lady’s view. I’ll see what ERNIE brings me this month!! Thanks. Chris
On holiday in the Cotswolds next week with my wife, our Mini Schnauzer Lily and my A90 Supra, any chance can you send details of your road test route should I be able to sneak away. Great channel and appreciated the effort you put in over lockdown.
Hi, did you have the sports exhaust on at any time during the filmed bits? As it sounds very muted ... was wondering especially with the roof down ... I used to own a 991.1 C4S and I think it would have been a lot louder
Hi PP and Mrs PP. really enjoyed that. Looks like a great car, beautiful hotel and the Cotswolds is stunning. I love Mrs PP little quips and occasional eye rolls! Just out interest, how much does the one you drove go for?
Great Video what a great birthday for mrs ped how are you going to convince porche to let you test drive the tycan me thinks if you pull it off you wont get much time behind the wheel lol
Hi Pete Hope you are all well mate ... I just love all of your videos mate Every video has great content And this one is no exception Mrs PP “” if you think you are driving this car home you will probably have to think again “” Classic mate We can see how’s the boss in your house lol 😂 I nearly forgot. The car is stunning mate love the colour & the roof just sets it off Mrs PP is just Ace
If I was Porsche GB I’d be very happy with this review as it shows how many of the people who will buy this car will use it instead of the usual how fast does it go.
Thanks Mark. That was my pitch to them when I asked for the car so it’s great to get feedback like this 👍
Love it. How to persuade Mrs P that you need a 911 Convertible in the garage - so practical!
Not really practical unless you are alone!!!
That is my next job 😂
Lovely video Pete ... Mrs Petrol Ped look quite at home behind the wheel of the Porsche
She was...could be expensive 😂
Petrol Ped
It’s only money mate, you can’t take it with you.
One word..........”Superb”. envious trip from start to finish. Big smiles for you both. Belated Happy Birthday ‘T’
Thanks Paul 👍
To date, I have seen at least a dozen videos on the 992 from around the world. I find that the reviews made in England were among the most serious, competent and engaging but this video in particular really thrilled me. This is what we, my wife and I do (without dogs !!!), weekends around Italy and Europe on our 958. Sure, a lot of space being an SUV, but if I still had some doubt about versatility, possibility of daily use and trips with luggage with this fabulous 992 this video has really convinced me. I don't think I really need a car as massive and spacious as the 958 (my wife also has a small car that drives around town) so I think my next Porsche will definitely be one of these jewels. Great video, thanks for sharing it !!!👍👍👍👍
Stunning car, i love this one, brings a smile to my face...super nice video again. Nice to see Mrs. Petrol Ped again. Thanx for this video again 😉
My pleasure. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
What a great video Pete. I love the dynamic between you and Mrs Petrol Ped, it makes me laugh especially not to kerb the alloy 🤔. The car looks amazing and that roof mechanism is just a pleasure to watch, typical Porsche just amazingly engineered 👍
Thanks Gareth. The roof was so clever 👌
Hi Pete, I think a way to boost your subscibers would be to have Mrs Petrol Ped do some reviews with you. I know she doesn't like being on camera but I think it would widen the appeal of your channel as she loves driving and had her own great view on the Porsche yesterday. Also ypu can tell that you are soul mates aswell as being husband and wife as the chemistry between you is great and makes me laugh. Anyway just a thought, have a great weekend 😁😁
Nice one. Lovely car. Years ago we were parked up at Nuits St Georges services on the A31 in France and this elderly couple parked next to us in a well used 993 Carrera, after they go out, the bloke tipped the passenger seat and out of the back got this red setter, happy as Larry. Ever since then I've tried to sell the Mrs that getting a 911 would be a sensible, family choice but sadly had no luck... I'm hoping to have more luck with a Taycan.
Keep at it mate. One day she will crack 😂
It’s reminding me that at this time last year I was enjoying a couple of hours on the Porsche track at Silverstone in 911 Carrera 4S. I agree with Mrs P that it really sticks to the road while giving the confidence to push a little harder. Hope you both enjoyed a much needed change after a couple of difficult months.
The Porsche experience centre at Silverstone is a great place 👍
What a great video. That’s a great mix of lifestyle and cars. You should do more! The hotel looks amazing and what a stay for the dogs too. Happy birthday Mrs PP! You were brilliant! Loved the head shaking behind his back! Haha!
Thanks for this. Seems to be a popular format so will look at doing more 👍
Glad you enjoyed a little bit of my area of the country. I live about 30 miles from where you stayed & have relatives who live in Moreton -In-Marsh, not too far away from there either. Like you said, great driving roads there too.
Stunning part of the country 👌
Probably the best channel on you tube.
I use to watch on my own but now my wife mandates she watch it with me. We adore the Petrol pooches, such characters. (Incidentally what breed are they?) Just watched the Q&A with Mrs PP too, priceless. We're expats in CA USA, no kids, love our dogs and a garage of nice toys, for which we are truly grateful, so we kinda relate to you both. (Hope you dont mind me saying so)
Keep up the good work, thanks for being there and doing it so well.
This is great to hear. I am delighted that you both enjoy my videos 👍
Love those Cotswolds roads, back there on Sunday.
It’s lovely up there 👍
The home of my family for generations. Certainly has some great roads & the watering holes are the biz.
Fox Hill Manor where my grandfather worked as a chief stockman many, many years ago. He was also employed at Guiting Grange & lived in a Tythe Cottage where my dad & his five brothers were raised. Such a wonderful part of the Cotswolds & great place to stretch the Porsche’s legs & stop off for a beverage at one of the local pubs.
Wow. That is amazing 👏👏👏
Enjoyed watching the Video. The Hotel looks excellent. Great to Mrs Petrol Ped and the Petrol Pubs as well
First of all, happy belated birthday to Mrs PetrolPed. Thanks for the great video. I loved the lifestyle aspect, that location looks awesome! I hope you got to drive it a bit more, Mrs PetrolPed seemed quite fond of driving it back home 👍
Thanks. It is a lovely part of the world and a truly special hotel. Mr PP did enjoy the car though 😬😂

That was my favourite video of yours so far. Awesome job.
That great to hear. I was great fun to make 👍
Lucky buggers......!!! Happy Birthday Mrs Petrol Ped, hope you both had as great weekend........!!!
We did indeed. Thank You 👍
Nice to see Mrs petrol bed again and it just goes to prove how usable a 911 is. Lovely colour combo and water beautiful place to stay. Keep doing what you do.
Petrol bed...who's she?
Thanks Andrew 👍
I have not been to the Cotswalds for years. Beautiful. So was the car. Silver and maroon red very appealing. Thank you for that tour. By the way, I like how you have your dogs in on the gig. Cheers!
Cheers Jon 👍
Happy belated birthday T .... what a great video .... loved the double act ...the pups and Foxhill Manor..... and especially the Porsche ..... like Mrs P, Mrs M is saying no at the moment but how long that lasts for I don’t know ...... let’s see whether you or Paul gets one first ! 😀
Does Paul use Pester Power...my most powerful weapon 😂
Yes Peter he does ...let's see who is more good at it or who out of T and me gives in first ... although a 911 is a bit out of the price range but a 718 could be a possibility 😉
Very enjoyable video Pete. I've just realised it's a year later than you posted it! I thought you had bought Mrs PP a taycan for a second there. Enjoyed the format of lifestyle and car and thank you for the hotel recommendation too!
It’s our fav 👍
I live in Broadway and it was super cool to see all the familiar routes I've took the Boxster down. Even the bumpy little track into Snowhill..! Kudos as it's the first 911 Cab that doesn't look like a fat arsed hunchback... Nice car, nice vid...

Don’t worry, the Minis aren’t going anywhere 😂
Petrol Ped That’s a relief 😊
Lovely, nice to see Mrs Ped involved. Well deserved treat...Jus
Thanks 👍
Aw happy birthday Mrs Petro Ped! Hope you had a fab break - thanks for letting Pete bring us along for the ride!
Aw memories right there.

Mmmm - Charlie and a 911?!
Thanks for sharing your memories mate 👍
Fantastic video and what a wonderful time it looks you had with mrs p. The car is just amazing!
Cheers Bud 👍
Great video as always Pete. Glad you and the 3 girls had a great break. Just looked up the hotel g/f birthday soon may follow your lead and take a trip to Foxhills. 😂
Highly recommended 👍
My sat nav took me up the Petrol Ped hill climb last Friday on my way to Chichester!
LOL...mega bit of road 👏👏👏
hey
hey.....really not a Porche fan, but that has opened my eye a tad, nice job Mr & Mrs PP
Great to hear 👍
Me too, and yes this is a different person, but the name Russell G jumped out at me!
Happy birthday Mrs P!! Yes, although I currently drive a Lamborghini Astra Estate, the 911 range is what usually floats my boat! And this one is really lovely. PLUS you have a pretty girl and two cute pups riding with you!!!!! Then the chef comes to you to ask what you'd like, while you and said pretty girl are lounging in a swing chair made for two!

Oh dear...those damn subtitles 😂😂😂
Shwmae Ped, sounds like you and the family (yes pups included) had a great time and have to say can see what you are saying about the Cab being soooo usable. Look forward to the next vid 👍
Cheers Matt 👍
Gorgeous car great spec.i spied an old metro at your friend's house brought back memories. Keep up the good work ped.
One owner from new. Maybe it needs a review 😜
Hi Pete, this is one of my favourite car videos ever. Use this format as often as possible. Great job. Thanks. :)
Hi Ped.
You guys look so good in that Porshe, should keep it.
I love watching your post. Please don't stop ever.
Greetings from Sydney, Australia
Wow thank you 🙏🏻
Lifestyle and car review, what a great combination! Nice to see Mrs Petrol Ped on camera again. Condolences to you both for your loss of family members, and belated Birthday wishes to Mrs P. My only criticism is, that the video wasn't long enough!
Glad you enjoyed it. I was really worried it was too long 😂
@@PetrolPed Would have been good to see Mrs P hooning it all the way home!!
brilliant content as usual with a added bonus of a double act 😊fantastic ! Happy Birthday to mrs pp !
Glad you enjoyed it Keith 👍
Great review......
Belated birthday wishes mrs ped.... (as if she reads the comments!)....
A well deserved weekend of luxury....
I’ll pass it on. Thanks 🙏🏻
A great video Pete, your wife (and pups!) are good sports! ;) Can't beat the Cotswolds, my wife and I have also literally just come back from The Fish hotel earlier last week, also for my wife's birthday!

Looks Beautiful , Congratulations . Perfect setting for the Porsche
Cheers Lee 👍
Hey Peter,
Loved the lifestyle and car review video.
What a lovely treat not Mrs Ped’s birthday.
Also nice to see a real world review of a non Gt product Porsche from the expansive 911 range.
Great that the weather gods were also on your side.
Thanks Julian. We had incredible weather for the whole of our stay 👌
Great Vid, as always Pete. Great venue! While I await my Taycan, I have but myself a 911 targa 4, and as you say it is a great daily. That is what I am using for. The targa, has more space.

Great vid. I like the car and lifestyle mix maybe do a series of them?👍
I thought I would give it a go and see if it was popular. So far so good 👍
Awesome 😎 vid content and a big Happy Birthday 🥳 to Mrs Petrol ⛽️ Ped. Yah Mrs Ped look 👀 we’ll settled in the Porsche. I’ve had some of the Porsche’s in my past and I have loved them very much.

Glad you enjoyed it AJ 👍
Cracking review and video Pete ! Loved it. And happy birthday to the boss 🎂🥂. Cheers Matt from Australia 🇦🇺
Cheers Matt 👍
Another interesting video great car + beautiful scenery….enjoy 😊
Cheers 👍
A beautifully spec'd 911 and a lovely hotel for a getaway. A birthday that neither of you will forget in a hurry.
Indeed 👍
My brother in law had a new one delivered last December, sent it back after a few weeks. It had major problems with not starting and then cutting out at traffic lights. Worst Porsche he has had, now gone back to a Boxster GTS.
Oh dear 😢
Bit easier than the spyder roof. Yes Mrs PP - supercool! Nice video. 👍
Oh yes 👏👏👏
Belated happy birthday to your wife. Great car, I’m working on my wife for a 996 C4S convertible. Spotted your Ventoux T-shirt, rode up there on Wednesday in Zwift, my legs are still feeling it 😭 Keep up the good work!!
Good effort. Ventoux holds a very special place in my heart. 3 times in a day was quite a day on the bike 😬
Good video and what lovely Pups!
Thanks David 👍
Great video Peter, really liked the lifestyle slant to the film - Roll on 100K subs..
Thank you. Wasn’t sure how it would go down but I am pleasantly surprised so will do more 👍
Wow you lucky bugger Pete! That is just my dream everyday car. Wow just wow! 23:38 and I watched every second, I don't do that more than a few times a year.
I was worried it was too long but it had a lot to fit in 😂
I have worked out if we hadn't had children I could probably have bought a Cayman! Love the video and the car those red leather seats look so comfortable, great video and well done on treating Mrs PetrolPed and the pups are very well behaved.
Cheers Ray 👍
Used to have an older C4S coupe, loved it. Would have another if I could afford one. I’ll have to stick with my S4 for now. Great video 👍
Cheers Andy 👍
This is without question my favourite UA-cam automotive channel.
OMG, for a second there I thought you somehow got Jenny Agutter to marry you!!
I wish 😜😂😂
Petrol Ped, I can see it now, an upcoming episode of Petrol Ped will surely be titled Logan’s Run or An American Werewolf In London.
And on that note, I would love to see your review of the C8 Corvette when they eventually hit the UK.
If Logan’s Run existed I would have been dead 18 years 😂😂
Would love to drive the Corvette 👍
I couldn’t have said things any better. I totally agree with you. This is a car very hard indeed not to enjoy ! No wonder people fall in love with 911s, despite their few shortcomings. And my oh my what a week-end you, your wife and your cute little dogs had. Fabulous region, great hotel. Well done 😎
Glad you enjoyed the video 👍
looks up price. HOW MUCH?!!!!
For one night?! But very nice though! Amazing that even with the very flashy weekend away, you still love P.P. Love the car, love the hotel, but think I might be looking at the Treehouses as they look great fun.
Love how Porches now have such exceptional interiors now. Take one look and they walk all over anything from say Aston. I really thought Mrs PP would think it a bit silly, but she really fell for it, apart from the price.
Not cheap but great value. The Tree Houses are amazing 👌👍👍
Still working on the car 😂
You had me at 'taking the pups'. Wonderful content!
Couldn’t leave them behind 😂
Great living with vid Pete and great to see Mrs Petrol Ped on again ! Love Porsche 👍🏻🇨🇦
Hi Mrs P, you don’t hang about in that 911! Such a beautiful fast car. Loved this!
Nope. She has a heavy right foot 😂
Been looking forward to this!
Hope it didn’t disappoint 😬
@@PetrolPed haha! It was awesome!
Brilliant video, great car ( prefer the Targa) , the Cotswolds are amazing, and Mrs PP is a star !! oh and happy Birthday too 🍾🥂😊
Cheers Michael 👍
Thanks for tha visualization. GOALS
Love it! Your pups love it and their perfect dogs. 🚗
Thanks 👍
I felt relaxed as you both looked, and a bit jealous too!!! You are so fortunate as not only a lovely brand new Porsche to drive about in, but also a lovely part of the world to stay in. The pups are relaxed too as they are familiar with their surroundings. So now we come to the practicality of the 911, you are of course joking, don`t get me wrong lovely car but you would need to be a stick insect legswise to be in the back seats, similar to a review I saw years ago of the Audi TT with its baby seats in the back too. Never-the-less its a sports car and they pretty much are not for going away with lots of luggage, if you can afford it, you buy what you need, and then discard it after you have used it, is that not correct Pete? The Taycan however that`s a very different story Roger Bailey already did a review and it seems quite nice!!!!!!!!!
Certainly looking forward to getting my hands on a Taycan 👍
What a lovely car Peter and good to see your wife again on camera again. That hotel looks great too
Thanks Peter 👍
great blog PP keep it up .......
If you just touch near the emblem the trunk opens if you have the key with you.
Wow, you guys found a 5 star resort that the chef makes food for the pups!! And get to drive a 992 for 7 days just make a great week!!
It sure was 👍
Thanks for your review…. We have been running an Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio for four years now and it’s absolutely brilliant…. But think maybe we just fancy a change and like you we have a dog but no kids ( so small back seats ideal )…. However, having driven C4S and C2S after being spoilt by the steering in the Alfa. The C2S is in my opinion a better steering, handling car…. Just feels lighter and sportier on the twisty bits…. BOSE audio is brilliant rather than adequate standard audio ( that’s a big consideration for us )…
Boot not as big as Alfa and actually nowhere hear as fast. But I’m getting to the stage in life where I don’t want to drive around everywhere like my trousers are on fire!!! Ha ha.
As regards Mrs Petrol Ped and comments about the Taycan???…. I’d take the cabrio every time. It looks sensational aswell. Goes well and is actually even reasonably economical.
Goes without saying Porsche build quality and reliability etc.
Thanks
We are now seriously looking for a suitable car. But we are very picky.
Enjoy your channel though
Regards
Rog, Maxine and Foxy dog.
Foxy Dog…love it 👌
good evening PP, Firstly Happy Birthday to Mrs PP 🎂 (loved her comment about Dinner 😂) so long as you let her drive it to, i think you might be able to persuade her 😉👍
I think she needs more work 😂
Petrol Ped
Keep at it, you know it makes sense 👍
A great video. I have booked Foxhill Manor for my wife’s birthday on the strength of this.
Amazing 👏👏👏
You will love it 👍
Good evening to you both. I had to laugh at the kerb comment. Looks a lovely car, but there would not be enough room for us. Kate would have it for a sunny day car though.
My wife, Mrs Roger Bailey, will sympathise with you Mrs Petrol Ped, as she too is often roped into assisting with my own car filming antics.
LOL...yet to be on camera though 😜👍
Hi Pete, please say HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳 for me to mrs p. The hotel looked just perfect plus being fortunate in having the good weather. I enjoyed the review on the Porsche and mrs p gave another angle to it . But me personally I’ve never liked convertibles the are just not my cup of tea. Have a. great week looking forward to the next video. 😀Phil
I’ll pass that on. Thanks Phil 🙏🏻
Great video, great car, great location, great family, well done loved it. Cheers Dave from downunder DFDU 😎
Great Subscriber 👍
Fantastic car fantastic hotel fantastic location no more to say enjoy!
Thanks Steve 👍
That’s made me really appreciate having one of those as it’s all to easy to regard it as “normal”, it’s a 991 but still a fab car.
Top tip Peter, you don’t have to buy a new one at ££££££, and Mrs PP looks so good in one.
Also Pete, now you’re there, perhaps a collared shirt??? instead of the merch😉
Edit, again, how come I’m still getting promo emails from Goodwood when Mrs PP is on holiday 🤷🏻♂️😄. Happy birthday to her BTW.
She might be on holiday but her team aren’t 😜😂
Loved this review Nice weather . Out of this world Hotel, Great Grub, And a Porsche thrown in what’s not to like 👍🧽🏁
Pretty good break to be honest 😬😂
Thanks for a fabulous video which shows that such cars can be made usable. All I need now is a friendly bank manager! Maybe one day but with Porsche’s attitude allowing both you and Mrs P to test drive the car was really great. My wife does most of the driving nowadays so it’s really useful to see how cars such as this can be practical and to get the lady’s view. I’ll see what ERNIE brings me this month!! Thanks. Chris
Thanks for this Chris. That was pretty much my pitch to Porsche 👍
On holiday in the Cotswolds next week with my wife, our Mini Schnauzer Lily and my A90 Supra, any chance can you send details of your road test route should I be able to sneak away.
Great channel and appreciated the effort you put in over lockdown.
At the top of Fish Hill take the second left 👍
I own the 2S cabrio 992 and drive it from Hampshire to Athens in Greece and back twice! We were two adults but no dogs!
Mrs. P sending it on the dual carriageway was a highlight. It would be great to have her behind the wheel in future reviews.
I’ll do my best...but it won’t be easy 😂
Hi, did you have the sports exhaust on at any time during the filmed bits? As it sounds very muted ... was wondering especially with the roof down ... I used to own a 991.1 C4S and I think it would have been a lot louder
I had the car in Sport with the Sports Exhaust on all the time 👍
Well Pete for you to loosen Mrs petrol ped up to the idea of owning one ,i hope it was a beautiful sunny day when y'all drove home!
It wasn’t actually that great. We had the roof up 😢
Lovely review of the usability of the 911 and lively to see it broken up by Foxhill Manor 😊
Thanks 🙏🏻
Hi PP and Mrs PP. really enjoyed that. Looks like a great car, beautiful hotel and the Cotswolds is stunning. I love Mrs PP little quips and occasional eye rolls!
Just out interest, how much does the one you drove go for?
Thanks Ben. The car I had was specced and £121k 👍
Car, Life and hotel one word Beautiful, mind you deserve it after your resent times
Thank You 🙏🏻
Great review.
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Closing rear windows also helps.
If you raise the rear windows it’s even less blowy with the roof down!
Just waiting for the GTS to be released Pete and judging by what you say about the 4s cab
it should be well worth the wait, Porsche never disappoint !
Should be 👍
Great Video what a great birthday for mrs ped how are you going to convince porche to let you test drive the tycan me thinks if you pull it off you wont get much time behind the wheel lol
Hopefully I’ll get my hands on one soon. Mrs PP will I am sure have a drive. Her next car will be electric ⚡️ 👍
Hi Pete
Hope you are all well mate ...
I just love all of your videos mate
Every video has great content
And this one is no exception
Mrs PP “” if you think you are driving this car home you will probably have to think again “”
Classic mate
We can see how’s the boss in your house lol 😂
I nearly forgot. The car is stunning mate love the colour & the roof just sets it off
Mrs PP is just Ace
She is certainly the boss 😂
