Extremely capable driver though Tiff is, I wouldn't let him drive my pride and joy! We've all seen how he (ab)uses cars and the thought of mine being drifted, tyres smoking through bends for prolonged periods doesn't enamour me. I know that the 997 is a performance car, but if anyone is going to exploit is abilities, even if not to the extent that Tiff is able, then it would be me! As an aside, I too have been asked to offer my car to Tiff; fortuitously, I can so no with ease, because I won't take delivery for another week or so. However, it's your car so you must do what you think right; but I'd take into consideration the need for new tyres, brake pads and, perhaps, discs afterwards.
