Hello All Nearly twenty-six years ago (November 1999 in fact) I took delivery in London, UK, of one of the very first Boxster Ss. I had ordered the S when the original 986 came out - I went for a test drive in a standard 2.5 litre 1997 Boxster and told the dealer "I'd love to have the faster version when they make one." and he took a deposit from me...and two years later I spec'd the S and then took delivery. It was a fun time. I made lots of friends on PPBB as a result and I think many are here now on Pedro's board. Would you believe me if I said that I can't find a single photo of that car! Its registration was V961 JGW. The car was mine in the days before ubiquitous mobiles phones with good cameras. However, I am sure that I posted pictures from a digital camera on PPBB...but now that bulletin board is no more, and I can't remember my login details for the archive and I can't find those photos at home. Can anyone help please? I have good pictures of most of my vehicles, but none it seems of my black Boxster S. I'd love to find those old pictures.

Sadly, the fruitless search for pics of my Boxster S from 25 years ago continues...]]> Howard in London Main ForumMon, 03 Nov 2025 08:53:29 -0500 https://pedrosboard.com/read.php?7,57302,57314#msg-57314 https://pedrosboard.com/read.php?7,57302,57314#msg-57314 Howard in London Main ForumMon, 03 Nov 2025 08:50:31 -0500 https://pedrosboard.com/read.php?7,57302,57313#msg-57313 https://pedrosboard.com/read.php?7,57302,57313#msg-57313

I am still looking. BTW, my Rawlings Audio stereo system is still running strong.

Thanks for the heads up on that.... Don't spend too much time searching. I know that it was a loooong time ago!

Nice to hear from you.

Take care,

Any picture you posted would have been on a hosting platform, not on PPBB itself, so that makes it somewhat more difficult.
But we will try.
Happy Boxstering

I'm hoping I posted some pics of my new car to PPBB around November 1999.
