I have a 718 Boxster S in Night Blue with Sports Classics as a loaner from Tewkesbury today. My Carrera T is in for its first MOT and to have the summer wheel/tyre set put back on.
Great service from Tewkesbury as usual. They have a clever gadget that reads the tyre tread depths as they drive the car into the inspection bay. Quite impressive tech.
Apparently they had their best month ever on car sales last month, and from this week, their entire sales team is back at work.

Looks good, why don’t you use Swindon? Is it just that you prefer the blast up and down the 419

Welcome back Simon. The Boxster will give you a chance to reacquaint yourself with PDK.

That is an awesome spec. Pretty much exactly what I would want my 718 Boxster to look like apart from the red calipers.
I still really, really want one of these. I do slightly regret getting the Macan over a 718 and getting a cheaper estate car for family duties, but it's difficult to justify buying a selfish 2 seater for a family of 3.

Hi Mike. I have kind of split loyalties between Swindon & Tewkesbury. I bought my first Porsche from Swindon, and my next two from Tewkesbury. The Carrera T came from Cambridge. Tewkesbury were able to offer me a better deal on the storage of my wheels/tyres, hence why I’m still using them. It is nice to have a blast up the A419, and I often go for a drive around the Cotswolds when I have a loaner from Tewkesbury.
Cheers,
Simon

Thanks, Peter. Do you know the car? As was it an educated guess that it has PDK?
Cheers,

I'd have to strap the pram to the roof
