Following on from my disasterous attempt to get a Macan GTS for SWMBO to stop me buying a Boxster (see http://911uk.com/viewtopic.php?t=116508)...... I bought a boxster for 25 bags # :thumb:



# 25 bags is based on SWMBO knowing I "saved" £18k by buying her an Evoque compared to the specced up Macan so I was allowed to spend £25k on a toy :)

now SWMBO is obviously NOT a car person given she would rather have an evoque than a Macan in the first place so the conversation went along the lines of ....

Her "how much was it"

Me "25 bags"

Her "WHAT!"

Me "25 bags"

Her "whats a bag ?"

Me "its a unit of currency used to value porsches"

Her "oh"

now we all know that 1 bag > £1 but she does not :hand:

I think I'll start a little journal of my Boxster adventures, more to follow on a seperate thread :wink:
 
:hand: Have given any thought to your syrup when driving with the rag top down :dont know:

I have to say the 981 model is a great car and I'm very interested but as my intent is for a daily driver it needs to have a tin roof and hence the Cayman option.

That Mexico blue Cayman is still up @49 bags :floor: so when they drop it to its true value of 39 bags I might be interested as that could tie in with my retirement :thumb:

There where 3 different Mexico blue cars at the OPC today, all for sale, common as muck :grin:
 
I'd look at buying Wilperts Boxster if he's still got it to save on the OPC tax. Black with tan leather the perfect combo :worship:
 
I got mine cheaper than none OPC cars with less spec and an additional 2 years warranty to boot :wink:

Don't rule them out, its all about timing :wink:

Now as I'm in the market for a 981, 25 bags at an OPC seems like a wee bending of the truth for swmbo ;)

:hand: your falling into the trap of assuming 1 bag = £1,000 :wink:
