Hi,

I am looking to buy a car to use on a daily basis for commuting to the station, general use and the odd track day. I am considering buying an either an early 2.5 Boxster or a late 968 coupe. I would ideally prefer the Boxster as I prefer the styling and the more modern drive, but I also need a certain amount of praticality.

Now, I know this is not ideal but, I also have a small trailer which is maily used for taking rubbish to the dump and trips to the DIY shop, but also for transporting my mountain bikes and gear about for rides. Keeping an open mind about towing with a Porsche (Cayenne notwithstanding), does anyone have any experience as to whether is it at all possible to fit a tow hitch to a Boxster

for very occasional very light use? If there is absoutly no way, I will probably have to look at a 968 instead, but SWMBO is less keen.

many thanks for ideas.
