Dan32 Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 More a case of Lee showing off the new ride than a meet, but we ate like it was our last meal, enjoyed the sunshine, and Lee was even kind enough to let Jim and me have quick blat round the block in the Porka Beautiful car, not sure if its paid for yet And 2 Eton messes were consumed Let's hope the weather stays like this for the next Brighton/Portchester meet, possibly 1st sept but will keep everyone posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just made the image bit more interesting. They've all had some tweaking of sorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritey Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Great photos and a good looking car Good weather again too, Biali certainly no how to make it happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRR Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Great photo's Dan Excellent food and a good laugh was had too. Well you'll all be glad to know I went back to the garage and paid for it too (oh how trusting some people are ) (Word of warning.... I'm glad I got the official 111 point check since the VW saleman told me when I went back "The guys in the workshop borrowed the keys yesterday so they could have a look at the engine... I watched them go upto the car pop the front hood look inside with confused faces, then do the same with the rear... then they gave eachother confused looks and returned the keys ) SilverArrow... I'd just collected the car the the garage 4 miles away and driven straight to the meet Oh well, I look forward to the next proper meet. Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that lee's porsche boxster look very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan32 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Lee's has all the sport suspension, Mark, so it feels sublime. Think its the special dampers that help (PASM - electronically controlled damping) and can be switched to Sport mode to further crispen the chassis (which also quickens the throttle). I'm sure for track duty the convertible side of things could have more influence, but on the road its good balance of power (295bhp) to chassis limits.

Thanks for explaining about PASM,Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lottiefox Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Lovely looking car Lee, extremely extremely smart. Maybe I'll bring my new runaround to the next Brighton meet.... Let's hope for similar weather, although my roof is slightly more fixed in place!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
