Did the whole wash, clay, polish, wax thing and even used some of the new ceramic stuff. She's looking pretty good, don't you think?

And - Hazel got to drive the Boxster for the first time!


Cheers- dj

Looks great and Hazel will be driving it for real someday! I do the same regimen on my ‘03, although I’ve
gone back to carnuba after trying spray ceramic. IMO it’s more appropriate for a daily, and nothing pops like good ‘ol high quality wax. BTW, my car just passed 164k miles - drive, rinse repeat!

2001 Boxster 2.7L

Fairly new to Boxster ownership. Been driving 911's since 1977. Still have a couple of air-cooled ones. Got to say ... these Boxsters sure do complement the Porsche DNA.

It would not surprise me if old 911 drivers admitted they enjoy the Boxsters as much if not more than the 911's.

They are flat-out fun!!!

It was time for new tyres (tires) - Michelin Pilot Sport 4. I decided it was also time for new rims as well, and found some 17" BBS wheels from a Carrera which had been used perhaps once or twice. Period correct for the 986 S. (I know some convert to 18", but 17" offer a smoother ride and better handling).




Also installed a new Alpine/Focal music system to replace the original Becker CDR220. What a difference!



Regards from Perth
