    Boxster Demonstration Drive

    I have today been contacted by my dealer to ask if I wanted a test drive after the launch date of 29th November. My drive is booked for 4th December. Looking forward to this but I suspect it will make the wait until March even more unbearable....

    I'm gonna drive the Boxster S end of this month if the weather permits. If some of you have particular questions regarding certain things which I should look for, post them here.

    Thanks, RC - yes my favourite subject! If the one you drive has sport chrono! I am hoping the one I get to drive has it, so I can get a second try, and that if i change my mind and want it it is not too late to add it to my order. That's the only uncertainty about my spec, now.

    Sorry Rich C, have to go one better. I'm taking my spin on the Saturday 27th!!! Apparently West London are starting on the 27th. 3.2s manual hopefully with a similar kit to mine, although I guess it will most likely be fully loaded.

    Can't wait! Fingers crossed I fit my lanky boddy behind the wheel... shoehorn at the ready!
