It was Christmas day, 25th December 1998 and my cousin had picked up his brand new boxster earlier that week. We went for a drive that evening, first as a passenger then he let me drive.

I was amazed!

At the time I was 17 and driving a big V8, great in the straight line but handling was nothing like a mid-engined sports car. So my cousin takes this long sweeping bend, and I am actually quite frightened as I am expecting him to slide the car and I hope he is a good enough driver to catch it. Well there was no slide to speak of, the car felt like it was on rails. It was at that moment I knew I had to have one.

Fast forward 10 years and I can finally afford to buy one (these cars are quite expensive in Australia). I got my 2000 Boxster S April last year and I love driving it.
