Is that not the ex lockyear/faure car that competed in the tour Brittania etc
Yes it is. Won the Tour de Briton twice and the Tour de Espgne once. Great car!!
Remember it well competed against it,followed nick faure across the fens flat out both of us,great fun.I competed in the event in 2006,07 and 08,we won the event in 2007.
Your car had a 3.5ltr in it!and the engine case cracked during one of the events.
Wow that’s a brilliant piece of information that I will add to the file thank you. It has its original 2.7 MFI engine in it now according to the records but bored out to 3ltr. 👍

Stunning Boxster! I had a Ford Capri in an almost identical colour in about 1980. Booful!
I’ve owned 3 Boxsters previously. If any of them looked liked that , I would still own it. cloud9

That’s lovely. For me Boxster 4.0 is Porsche’s best ‘road car’ currently / in recent years.
Yes that's lovely. The digit hovering above the roof just makes the pic.

Yes works very well on these roads.
Dog doesn’t like to come along as he is a very nervous passenger (not helped by being in a big accident with me) - he stays home most of the time, but we were in a dog hotel - so the trip was partly/mainly for his benefit … or so I tell myself

Who would have guessed that it would be even more difficult to get to the Ring this year than last year?

G'bye, 992!

Spotted today at Windsor Farm Shop. I'm not sure I wouldn't prefer smaller Cup wheels, but I was still drooling. I had to ask the owner if he was selling but unfortunately the answer was no.
