She'll be writing up the papers that make anything going wrong the track operator's fault no matter what.......

Just make sure she hasn't started evening classes for track marshalling yet, and reloaded the fire extinguisher with something else!

A couple of my neighbours already think my wife tried to cut my throat, rather than the surgery truth......

Mind you she does seem to watch a lot of 'Women who killed' programmes on TV.......

Supposedly as part of her Psychology studies...

Fine idea, you'll be doing the Britcar 24h before long

Popping in hear http://www.masduclos.fr/ next week to see if there is any news as to wheather it will remain open. It's a fab little circuit in a very pretty setting. The Lotus guys have been there as par of their French Frolic a few years back IIRC

I'll skip britcar and go and chase Lewis instead!

That looks like a great circuit, not seen that before.

They close when the light gets back, I know how slow you are on tracks ...

Yep its a fab circuit. The owner is a little bonkers but has a fab private Ferrari collection. Mercedes have used this circuit a few times to launch some AMG models. There are some very good in car footage on youtube some in Loti

The local Commune are trying to close it down because of noise

so will be interesting t see what if anything is happening to it.

I'd never driven a mid-engined porker before so they lent me this to have a go in

Really enjoyed it and the noise........

Very nice - gotta laugh at the interior door handles...

Forgot to ask, what colour did you go for?

This one is a special edition hence the door handles!

Not yet confirmed yet as mrs needs to see but I like gt silver which is an exclusive colour on the boxster. You see some GT3s in it.

Very nice, is that the Spyder with the nightmare roof

? & that interior, is a bit full on

Yup but luckily it was already down - it was hot that day!

I think of all the cars you have posted on here over the years, that has to be one of my favourites. I know everybody knocks it with the usual "couldn't afford the full fat 911 & so on" but IMO the Boxter can't by beaten as an overall package. I'm sure Mrs 535 will be very happy in it, if she gets a chance that is
