I would say "touche" but the lack of an acute on my keyboard means I just
type, "touche", which is not the same thing at all.

Hmmmmm. I'd have thought that someone who owns a "Boxster" would have
been able to spell it.

Alas, as a former Boxter-ite I can't swap it for anything. By the way, I
think the MG hatchbacks and saloons are fine cars - the estate
particularly
so. They don't compete with the Boxter. I exchanged the Boxter for
slightly more seats when kiddies nos 1 & 2 arrived.
But the MG rag-tops - well,...not for me. We've both opted for our wholly
impractical choice - the DMC12!

P.s, Colm,
If your up for it I would love to swap my wife's rover 75 for your
Boxter any day if your up for it. (lol)
From a household where there combined car values have suddenly
dropped.
At least the delorean shines strong!
