....and I'm absolutely smitten! What a fantastically balanced machine! Just taken my turbo out for its first 'proper' drive since I've had it. Road was slightly damp and I reckon I need some new tyres (probably all round) but it was just so much fun - especially coming out of open junctions! I work for a prestigious german manufacturer and did an 18 month stint in passenger car marketing, where we were able to drive many cars on the basis of 'Competitor analysis (err, yeah right), including a 997 and boxster S, but this is the first rwd performance car I have driven without any traction control or computer intervention, and what a joy! Driving back to basics. Think I'm gonna hold on to this one for quite a while - only question is, how little can I spend on it!?
 
Glad to hear your enjoying driving as well as owning ur car. Good luck with not spending money.. but if its not already then a chip is essential! It just releases the car and turns it into a completely different animal. The trick is to stop there.

Regards,

Ben
