New to the Porsche world!!

Hi all,

I picked up this beauty at the end of september for absolute peanuts...2000 2.7..

It had a Faulty alarm control unit (since been replaced at the dealer) and a serious RMS leak which took an afternoon to swap in a fresh seal. Now she's as good as new.

Coming from a supercharged mx5/miata I wasn't expecting much from the Porsche, power wise, the overall driving experience however is amazing, it easily keeps me smiling as much as the mazda did.

Here's a pic of the mazda at the ring last summer..

And a more up to date pic of the boxster after cleaning up the wheels and giving them some paint..

Since then i've cracked the rear window in the cold :( so now need to replace the hood.

Currently I am sprucing up the interior with some paint, will post up some pics once done!

Cheers

Congrats and welcome to the Porsche family.

I think there's a kit you can get to move the steering wheel to the correct side. :)
