Deposit down.
Top darts. Well done!

At this rate we'll have more Porsches than BMWs on the forum. By my count that's 3 Boxsters (subject to borescope coming back clean...) and a 911 purchased this year!
ummm...

Nice looking car Broccers - hope the inspection says it’s as it looks!

I hadn't heard of the Sport Edition; looks good, hope it checks out well.
Watch out for speed cameras, yeah?

Cheers.

Fun is a bit missing in the golf but it's a very useful allrounder.

Boxster is booked in on Monday for an inspection.

I use a highway pure 600, great for phone calls and dab, it does have an aerial that needs to go on the body shell (usually the roof) that might be an issue for you.

Good luck with the inspection.

Sounds great.

Carnewal exhausts are meant to sound the absolute tits on these too.

That's a lovely looking Boxster and a cracking price too. Hope the inspection goes to plan.

Fingers crossed on the boreoscopy. I agree with the general Bose comments - although even with it, I struggle to hear radio 4 at motorway speeds.

Mine has held up as an everyday care too. Despite filthy weather over the past few months, I haven't struggled for traction in the wet/cold with it.

I lived with the m coupe for 6 years so think it'll be fine as an every day chariot.

Passed the bore scope just need to pick it up
