    Useful info re: build and delivery

    I was informed on Jan 6th that my car was going into production and was asked to finalise my spec. And as you can see from my pevious post it arrived at my dealer today!!

    So one month from build start to delivery..not bad Porsche!!!

    I will be the first person in the UK, on March 1st, to be driving a Boxster S1!!!!

    Perhaps it's because you're further east than I am and the 1st arrives in Reading before Andover!!

    Go on, spill the beans....

    Picking up a Basalt blk / blk leather 3.2s with 19" and a few other toys! What about yourself?

    Cant wait! Ive been dealing with Richard L. He's been ok so far although he hasnt really made much effort to keep my informed, feels like Ive had to chase him a fair bit.
