Been checking out the various forums & you fellas seem much the more knowledgable & less up your own 4rses than all the rest so if its ok I'll throw in my lot with you.I live in North Yorkshire,I own an 03 996c4 cab & an 05 boxster s.Even though I'm not one i have come to enjoy the hairdresser jokes,& I am prepared to be ruthlessly cruel in the pursuit of laughs.
I'm looking forward to joining in & I'll get some pics in my profile asap.

Must admit I almost admired the bloke.Just in case your paranoid I am not him in disguise.

Cheers Gary.Thats what happens when you come from a 4wd into a boxster & have forgotten all about lift off oversteer.Thankfully it was mostly cosmetic damage.

[quote=c2dtg]I hope everyone is making you feel very welcome. Nice to see you driving a Porsche as it was designed to perform - through a hedge backwards.

Mine swapped ends on me one time. No damage thankfully although the dry cleaning bills were a little difficult to swallow.

Needless to say, I am a little more circumspect when giving the C2 a thrashing.[/quote

Thanks c2dtg.(is it wrong of me to be proud of that picture?) I've learnt my lesson but I still wont drive it as hard as I do the c4 until I've brushed up my mid engined rwd skills.

Welcome and hello - thats a 'strange' combination of cars? why and how did you end up with a 996 and a box?


I bought the boxster for the wife & the 996 was an incredible deal off my brother that was just too good to refuse.The way things have worked out,I get the 987 she gets the 996.

That's wrong on so many levels...


Tell me about it but it was either that or a shagging & eating ban.
