Mrs' Boxster and Mclaren mp4-12c drive this morning

Post by 535dboy » Sun Jun 17, 2012 4:44 pm

Friend text over weekend and said he hadn't taken his car out for a while so we decided to go for an early morning blat.

Luckily (despite him having had it about 4 months so far) he has only done 600 miles in it so far and therefore he was still not allowed to give it absolutely full beans.

Ours has a 1000 miles on it now which means we can open it up a bit more.

Good fun but roads still quite busy despite us leaving at 6.45

First time he has seen the Boxster and it is the first time he hasn't slagged off one of my cars !

He was actually very impressed and said even he would own one!

Couple of poor pics from the iphone
