Featured Treat Myself

  1. My two lads have their own cars now and never come out with us and my wife has her own car so I decided to splash out and treat myself.

  6. it’s a 718 Cayman not a boxster. The Boxster is a soft top. 911 are silly money.
    20k worth of options !

  7. I’d have a Cayman over a 911, proper sports car. Congratulations on an excellent purchase!

  15. Nah, 997.2

    3.8 flat 6 n/a. The modern DFI 9A1 engine. Very nice.

  16. Ahh well yes old 911s are different. I think the new ones are a bit lardy and have gone away from what the earlier ones were. For me, I’d have a 996 GT3 2nd Gen. I know the 996 wasn’t as popular as other versions but I like the way the 2nd gen looks.

    Had a 928S2 in my youth, that was a wonderful car too!

  17. Blimey, wish I had a 928 in my youth. I had to settle for a mustard coloured Allegro! That was far from wonderful. In fact the word ‘shite’ springs to mind :D
