Hello! 'Newish' owner

[RD84]

Hello all, I bought my 986 Boxster S back in August of this year but this is my first post on the forum. I met Paul (Inkyboy911) at Cameron House and he told me to say hello on here.
Im loving the car so far, having owned only hot hatches before it has been rewarding driving a car that steers and stops the way you want it too, and of course the soundtrack! Im getting a little more confident with its limits too having had a few moments i know how far to push it before the grip runs out!
Ive not done alot to the car apart from spending a good week going over it with a machine polisher and replacing badges and centre caps, all cosmetic bits and pieces.
Hope to get my membership sorted out soon and get on a few outings in summer.
Anyway, some pics.
Russell

Good man......Russell nice to see you again.......for peoples info I used to live next to Russell but we got talking this week at Cameron and I said he should say hello as it's a good scene for all car lovers alike especially if ya own a Porscker of any description.

Anyway good to see you took my advice not many do!! lol

Sorry I kinda came round you the other day on the way out on Sunday but like you I needed a runny at the exit ... []

Can someone turn up the heating and get rid of this bloody snow!! Almost stacked the turbo twice today and it took 2 hours to get to Scotties for a cuppa and 2 hours back with an argument with a twat in a renault who canne read road signs!!

Russell, once the better weather kicks in there will be runs and trackdays so keep in touch with the forum and also get in touch with scott who has posted above and he will email you events and the odd breakie meet, etc, etc!!

Seeya soon mate!
