Nice one Steve. Well done. Does Mrs B know yet or did you post the news here first?

Lets hear the spec then: colour, suspension, alloys etc.....

cheers

Blimey, seems like you change your car more often than I change my undies.

Very interested to hear how you feel it compares with a 930. After getting stranded in a wet rainy car park the other night in mine (still investigating the cause - likely candidate is fuel pump/relay) my thoughts have been turning to something more modern.

Anyway congratulations!

Chris

Even more congrats due,,Silver is undoubtably the best colour to set the GT3 kit off.It has the right wheels & sports seats looks fantastic.

Guess this answers the Boxster S / not Boxster S question. Or are you loaded?

Nah, hopefully Steve will chop in the banana tupperware noddy car for a Boxster S, to complete his new line up

996 sounds nice, Steve.

Hey Domster.

I think you're out of date mate. Didn't Steve's yellow noddy car go a few weeks ago?
