Porsche Boxster 986 to Rustival - September 2024
After some fettling, I drive the Porsche Boxster to the British Motor Museum at Gaylon, to attend the second Rustival event of 2024.
There’s a walk around at the show, and a catch up on progress with the Boxster since the last video.

An overview of my latest fleet addition. Out with the MGF and ZS, in with a no-frills 2000 Boxster 2.7 manual. Why have I done this? What’s it like? What jobs need doing? And how does it drive? Oh, and how can I make a tenuous link to my Perodua Nippa? Let’s find out!
Perodua Nippa to Romney Retros - Sunday 23 June 2024
Просмотров 1386 месяцев назад
The Nippa was on duty again, this time heading to the Romney Retros breakfast meet in Dungeness, Kent. A monthly event through most of the year, breakfast is served next to the beach at The Pilot Inn. It’s worth the trip just for the food, but there’s always a great and truly eclectic car selection and friendly people.

After a fantastic trip to The Netherlands for EMWalhalla, the Nippa needed an MOT - the first one in my ownership. This video introduces the car, gives some background and I talk about this particular base model Nippa 850 EX.

Nippa to the Netherlands - EMWalhalla in a convoy of tat

Saturday 11 May 2024, a convoy of old tat from the UK arrives at our favourite car show: EMWalhalla. A true heaven for lovers of the unloved, what better way to visit than with a Perodua Nippa, Skoda Felicia, Rover 600, Citroën XM and a Lexus LS. This video covers the journey to the show, the show and the journey back. Commentary from Alex Wakefield and Richard Grant. Read about the trip in iss...
I live in Stafford were is the next meeting
@@SteveMuncaster-ji9dw it’s normally confirmed late December. Likely the same venue in late July.
Brilliant cars I have 2 off them
@@SteveMuncaster-ji9dw would love to see them.
Nice viddjyo fam
A nice snapshot of Rustival, it's nice to see a bit more video since the initial frantic rush of videos posted soon after the event. I was parked next to the 406 with the innovative filler flap opening system in a relatively mundane MX5
Just bought one few months back im planning to turn it into daily/camper build like a tiny camper car
@@farisrazali6191 I hope you enjoy sleeping curled up!
I agree with the title. I spent $15 .5K USD for my Boxster S and have over $12K plus into it. it is worth the cost of entry and upkeep.
This is the car that saved Porsche and has always been renowned for it’s handling . There was an option to have the ‘Boxster’ logo deleted which many chose to facilitate easy cleaning and waxing .
Had a MY00 986 Boxster s (Manual). Got me into the whole Porsche thing. Had that for 3 years. Loved it. Traded it for a MY14 981 Boxster s (PDK). Fantastic gearbox. Have just taken possession of my MY24 Boxster GTS (Manual). Once you have a Porsche you'll never not have one. Fantastic (and reliable - albeit expensive) cars.
No oil pressure ?
@@bruniau no gauge on this.
Lovely car, I just got one very similar spec to yours s - schmess! keep er above 4k anbd you 'need' no faster car on public roads. May i just say, you hear that clunck over rough surfaces - that is not normal nor must you suffer through it as a 'porsche' thing. its time to refresh your lower control arm (coffin) bits and/or various suspension bushings, will make a world of difence and erase that clunk ; transform it into a damn plesant tightness that you get from factory. Had the same issue on my 996 911 years back - will be the first job i do on this current strippper 986 boxster. 'hairdressers car', my left foot. For those who know.. there is, no substistute. ;) Enjoy her in good health and great vid
@@scottfindley1345 thank you, and I really appreciate the advice. I’ll definitely get it looked at again. I’ve got the car back from a refurbishment and will be doing an update video.
Great video, I subscribed 👌😀
@@fhwolthuis thank you!
Is that a child seat?
@@jameshunterford4099 yes, fun for all the family!
@@Chodcam Sorry, was meant to say a “Porsche child seat” … I looked at a lovely Boxster S, but was concerned about car seat travel for a toddler
@@jameshunterford4099 it’s just a generic one, seems to fit well. I used to use it in my MGF.
@@Chodcam I’ve wanted a Boxster for so long! Now I know a child seat works! Dangerous territory 😂
@@jameshunterford4099 now’s the time! It’s so practical, I could use it for work too. Loads of luggage space.
Yep, very true. I bought a 2.5 a few years ago for £1500. So far I have put £4000 into it, including some upgrades. Still needs about £10k more IMO. Petrol Poodle just drove it on his channel.
I bought a 986 for 1500, 3 years ago. Have spent zero on it ❤
Mk 3 cortina is my all time favourite car. Just awesome. 👍
In Malaysia we called it the Perodua Kancil (mousedeer), a rebadge car from Daihatsu Mira. 4:08 As a Malaysian, your pronounciation of Perodua is spot on. Whomever corrected you were wrong lol.
@@HAJZX thank you! Genuinely, I really wanted to know this. From now on, I will pronounce it ‘Perodua’ 🤣
Eeek my little figgy 🥹🥳 hope you enjoyed the day!
Loved it!
One of my favourite cars I saw there! 😂🤘
Nice video thanks for sharing! Glad you got my rover vitesse in there 😊
@@martinwheeldon that’s a lovely car. Soft spot for BLARG products.
Love it, you’ve done well 👍
Really enjoyed this event and thank you for the video. I loved your Perodua and spent quite a bit of time looking over it as so nice to see something rare and simply a basic car no thrills but does the job it was designed to do. Thank you for bringing it along.
Lovely low mileage car. Nevwe heard of anyone prefering the 4 spoke wheel to the 3 spoke though!😄
@@jonedgar5996 well, I am a bit weird.
No, just changed mine for a 3 spoke. I guess if you are a big 993 fan you might like it.
@@purple-porker-productions that might explain it.
Lovely looking car M9, sounds a lot like the Smart strangely...
It’s a double-triple.
A superb motor! I was amazed by the wonderful feedback from the steering. Modern cars just don't tell you how they're feeling when on the road. You're spot on re. the light warning buzzer, I had a good neighbour who saved me from numerous flat batteries. I wish I'd never sold mine TBF, it was a little pearl. I've got an '04 Kelisa with 108K on it, £200 well spent. It still gets c.54mpg on mixed driving, but more importantly, makes me grin when I get in. Your Nippa is a little jewel - I'm very impressed!
It’s amazing what £200 can get you. Without doubt, this is the best car per pound spent. I get so much enjoyment from it. So does everyone else it seems.
Cracking video ❤
A proud viewer from Malaysia, so glad to see you keeping this on a road with such tip top condition!
Thank you! Proud to represent Malaysia on the road here!
Ahhhh yes. The clattering of the basic 3-pot engine. Back to basics.
You can’t hear it with the windows open at 100km/h though!
@@Chodcam Speaking about driving the Nippa or its "original" distant cousin from Malaysia on the highway, it was an interesting experience in terms of NVH. 😂😂😂😂
So happy that it passed! Always loved this car! My great grandma had a daihatsu charade
It’s definitely a grandma kinda car!
Enjoyed this! I currently have a Proton Savvy but seriously considering the Nippa
There are two really good ones for sale right now.
@@Chodcam I was looking at the red one on 13,000 miles on eBay however the bodywork is nowhere near as nice as yours. The blue GX ones are nice but I don’t think there’s any left on the road in that colour.
Great video! I see myself walking in your video. Someone told me "there's a Nippa coming from the UK". I didn't wanna miss that, because I've never seen one. However, in the chaos of all these fantastisc cars, I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it. Well, at least I now know you've had a great trip.
We are coming back next year, unless I find something even more obscure to bring!
Nice video! Of course I spotted your cavalcade of tat on the show. Instead of my XM or any of my BL stuff I chose the most mediocre of the fleet: the Citroen C5 saloon....
I once had a Nippa, same year as this (2000). Also in red. Drove it to Mongolia in 2009 and it never missed a beat. Utterly faultless for 7600+ miles. Incredible little cars! Genuinely still miss it. :)
This sounds like a plan for 2025!
So YT's algorithm brought me here, and im glad it did! Nice voiceover, looks like a great trip! Hope your back and neck has recovered! It might not mean much to you, but you've given me 'car 20 question' choices for months! Great vid, thanks for sharing
Really glad you enjoyed it. I’m writing an article on the trip for classic retro modern magazine, issue 29 if you’d like to find out more. It’s out 1 July. I’ll also be making more videos and will be starting a podcast soon. Thank you.
Well, you've got yourself a new subscriber! Look forward to seeing more videos. I've seen you've just put a HD version up of the video as well. Hope you get some good views! If you'd be keen for it, a brief intro video to you & your car(s) would be great to see on the channel!
The Algorithm is very clever, as it suggested it to me too. Love me a chod road trip. (I appear to be subscriber number 12, have never been so far ahead of the curve!)
Tat convoys best
I must say I got a trifle excited knowing you'd posted this vid today!
It was a relief to finally get it up.
