Back from Silverstone to see the 6 hours WEC race. What a day as usual
Porsche were very competitive, shame about the crash between #1 Porsche and #86 Porsche.
Had a stroll through the Porsche Club GB area of the old track where hundreds of Porsches were parked. You're allowed to park there if you're part of the club. While I'd love to be, I can't justify the £70 annual fee just to be part of it.
The Boxster S was outstanding. Over 3 hours there and 3 hours back, over 300 miles in total. We did the whole trip on around £55 of fuel, which was incredible. Drove economically but cruised at 75mpg. Outstanding! Car ran flawlessly, we had the roof down there and back, and the weather was stunning. I pulled up outside my house after dropping my dad back to his, got out of the car, locked the door and felt very proud of it. I know it's not an enormous journey but it's the first one I've had with it and it's been brilliant. Looked the part too parked up along side other exotica. Apart from a few GT3 RS's, Cayman GT4's and the odd 488 GTB that stole the show in some instances.
An amazing day
added to my to-do list is a machine polisher, a private number plate and a front end re-spray. There's nowt wrong with my paint, but I want it 'perfect'. Seeing the other Porsches today had made me realise what a difference a good front end (in terms of paint) makes.
