Since having the Cayman I've found myself taking the scenic routes to and from places rather than the quickest (motorway).. Been a while since I've actually enjoyed just driving for the sake of it smile

Nice to see a Cayman for a change. Have another....

Another "Wales is open" photo set driving

One advantage of keeping it under a cover is that if you don't see it for 2 weeks, it always feels special uncovering it...



(Every number OCD was answered by the trip meter right at the start of the drive!)

I then discovered Wales' very own mini-NC500 with the single track road between Garth and Tregaron cloud9

It started off narrow and made me VERY glad the 2015 Boxster S aint a heavyweight!



As every twist and turn unfurled, I just kept getting more and more slack-jawed with "wow" and "ooh" comments...



Had to stop for one arty shot. I should have stopped much more as there were so many opportunities, but this amazing driving road was near deserted over 20+ miles on a glorious day.

LOL!!! Yeah. Naff all mobile signal for miles and looked like somebody had already ripped the pay phone out.

At least you could shelter in the red khazi until search & rescue arrived...

Good Sir! Is this your car:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q4jJhjdNTc4

It looks like an absolutely Gem of a car and a joy to see it being enjoyed on such trips. There's something truly wonderful I'm a big fan of a well kept high mileage car. I've done the North Coast 500 as a passenger in a 180,000 mile old C2 that would shame most 50-60k mile cars for sale.

Sure, it's a bit of triggers broom on the suspension front but the original engine is tight as a drum and the bodywork looks immaculate.

That sound when you first hear the engine in this video is just spine tingling. I bid on this car last year on collecting cars but in the end let it go. It was hard for me to put a value on and I bottled it, it was getting too close to the limits of my budget and I could picture the nightmare if I won it at that money and it needed a big spend. Well done sir.

I don't regret the car I ended up with, I feel very lucky to have bought back my old 996 turbo but when I hear that sound I reserve the right to feel envy ;-P

Some great photos and so many of these small mountain top roads in Wales. I have a favourite too, in Snowdonia national park, but patches of it have worn very smooth, you have to be very careful when wet!

I wish my camera would behave - this is moonlight, this evening, right now, honest.
