So I made a decision and took action

I decided that I wanted a good and cheap platform to start with and that if possible I was after a car that would be perfect for me.

I searched for racing cars that were already done and I found that what was available was either very expensive here in Scandinavia or in need of work.

So I decided to search for a good car to build a racing car from. At the same time i contacted Dominic who owns Specialist Vehicle Preparations in the UK and has built a number of successful racing cars to see if he would help me to build the car if I found a cheap platform to start from in the UK...

OK, so why the UK Cars in Scandinavia are rather expensive, even the used ones - so I could find a good used car in the UK a lot cheaper than in Scandinavia and there is a larger selection. Also, I learned to drive in the UK and have no problems driving a RHD car...

So after some searching and with Dominic's help I today purchased the platform that will become my racing car - a 2001 Porsche Boxster 3.2 S with 52,386 miles.

The car has slight crash damage which is localised to one side on the rear and a simple fix.

Now, let the fun start
