I bought a Boxster
Posted: Mon Jul 19, 2021 10:38 am
The sun came out.
And it was only 6 miles away.
It was cheap.
That's the only explanation I have for this relatively stupid act. What is it? It's a 24 year old poverty spec 2.5 Boxster that came with one option from the factory. A hardtop. Which it no longer has. No aircon, no speakers in the doors or rear (the dash speakers are so crap its funny) and the roof is broken so only goes up by hand. Seats are pleather and plastics abound. I think the fact that it so basic was why I bought it. Go figure.
It doesn't have a particularly great history, but has a fresh MOT! It has done 93k miles but not moved a lot in a few years. I will give it a full service and change the coil packs and then attend to the myriad little things missing or broken or just not quite working as they should. I like a project. Drove it 240 miles to The Open and back on Friday
