Depends on how well they fit in the back of a 911?

Ouch, by the time we got to the puddle in the footwell I was surprised the car had not been returned to sender. That's a shocking set of issues. Wouldn't happen to a 993 (there, I'm being nice again )

About to upload a few photos of our Easter Tour so far, but before I do, here's a taster to temper the jealousy, taken last night..... And think of these two who are on tour with us (pic2)

Un-bloody believable! they have a "Lemon Law" in the states kicks in after 30 days of car off road for warranty purposes in first year of ownership and he should definitely be returning for a full refund on those grounds. Whats happening to Porsche? Actually what's happening to the German car industry after more fires this week with new Mercs and BMWs!

Thanks Macca.

Hmmm... She was ok with the 964 but made quite a few comments on how much more comfortable and less road noise the 07 Boxster S has. Not appreciated was the nastalgic, classic experience vs the comfort of a modern pcar.

So, to keep the peace, we swapped at Auckland and Lola is taking a well deserved rest after 7,200km. Also considered was the extra boot space... The boxster is chocka and carrying extra from the bikers. We also like touring with the roof down although there hasn't been much of that yet and the prospects aren't good. Weather forecast is looking increasingly gloomy.
