Im living in a topsy turvy world as my mint SY 2000 Boxster S that should be a weekend car sits on the drive from Friday to Monday.

Monday to Friday it does 2 miles to work and 2 miles back in a max speed zone of 40 mph with cameras. So the car rarely goes above that speed.... seriously.... no seriously.

Having two young children means we are in the Passat at the weekends.

Its a real pity as I never really get to drive the Boxster with the gearbox fully up to tempature when 2nd gear because as easy as 4th lol.

Whenever the weather is nice and I can go "top-down," I drive. Oh wait, I'm in North Florida, it's that way most of the time! I leave for work at 0530 M-F and have a 32 mi commute. If I had hair, I would enjoy the breeze blowing through it.

Hopefully you get to drive it long enough to warm up the oil to help remove the moisture
