Arsebiscuits!



Hit a large rock at c. 40mph. Drove about 8 miles on it to get home as AA & Green Flag wanted £150 and three hour wait. Tyres fubar but don't think wheel's cracked so may be repairable.
Waiting for a price from OPC Bristol for replacement, just in case...

Ouch! That’s the argument for the 18”s on the red one... redface

It was fun, but the Boxster is gone.
I never really gelled with it so not too sorry to see it go. Very capable car, nothing wrong per se, just not quite right for me.

Just spotted the advert for it at Dick Lovett Cardiff: click.




The End.

What is next on the list?

I didn't keep mine very long either - I found the 2.7 a bit underpowered and the ownership reality really didn't live up to the hype.

I still have my 718 Boxster however, I found it vastly improved.

I'd been looking forward to Toyota's GR86 when it finally appears, but currently smitten by my I01 i3 120 Ah - which surprises me.

Who'd've thought; from TVR Griffith, two Porsches, quick coupes and various sports cars to a fully-fledged, battery powered milk float.
It's not my kind of car at all, but I love it.
