Hi all
I have met quite a few of you in my TVR S3
The time has come for me to move on and I now own a Porsche Boxter 987 S with a nice reg plate
See you at an event soon
Thanks Gary

Which may prompt the question from your TVR-owning buddies - 'Is it electric?' wink

Nice...my wife has a Boxster too biggrin

But will you miss the TVR? I still have a soft spot for my old one and the 911 that replaced it hasn't moved in 6 months.

Good choice, I've had a couple of Boxsters and a Cayman S, very good cars.

Loving the banter 😄
Jed I had my S3 for nearly 10 years, I have toured Europe in it, done most of the major Alpine passes, driven Spa, The Ring and Goodwood. I have made very good friends with other S owners. So yes I miss the S, If I had the space of would have kept it.
But Porsche itch to scratch and I intend to tour Europe in September in a little more comfort.
Best Gary

Hi Gary,
that's very nice!
After having one a few years ago I nearly bought another one a few months ago to replace the wife's SLK, but decided on a convertible 997 instead.
Lets hope the summer is here soon!

Gorgeous colour, nice car. The 997 wheels suit it quite well actually. I'm generally not a fan of 911 wheels on Boxsters but those work.

You need to perfect your spelling of Boxster first, Barclayboy, or those plonkers in the Porsche forum will have a heart attack.

As an RO in the TVRCC I had my Boxster S for a few years.
There will be plenty if "banter"!
Get used to it
Great car to drive in Europe in. We did most of France in ours.
Hope you love it.
