First task was a wheel alignment - despite us marking the positions of the various bolts, Barry just felt very strange, like it was crabbing along and the steering wheel was off-centre.
I tried to book an alignment at 911Excellence but they were full for the next 6 weeks, so I just randomly found a garage nearby who assured me they had done Porsches before and they had the Hunter system. It should have been a bit cheaper as well but turns out, the alignment was SO far out, it took them an extra 30 minutes and so ended up costing me £220. Still a bit cheaper than 911E and they seemed to know their stuff.
The ride on Barry is now definitely firmer (luckily I don't have any fillings to drop out) but it does feel taut and firm in the right way, so I'll just have to hope it softens a little bit over time. More importantly, it's definitely better on bumpy, fast corners and under heavy braking, which was the main point of this exercise - it was getting a bit scary before but now back to the confidence-inspiring level of handling Porsche are famous for.
A local Porsche Indie dealer organised a meet half an hour from me, so I popped along to have a look:
