At last !!!!! Someone has reached the same conclusion as me. Exactly the same reason as why I sold my STI. If your ego permits just go and try something small and chuckable with modest power - something like a Ford Puma 1.7. Everyone will think you've lost your job, or your marbles, or both, but you will be happy in the knowledge you can enjoy spirited driving at licence-friendly speeds.

Fair enough, might of helped if we'd known the whys & what fors in the beginning though

In that case what about something like swapping the Turbo for a 4s (Im assuming you've got that kind of money if you're pottering around in a 911 Turbo) and getting a trackday toy that you can use to its full potential with no worries about losing your license - Westie/Caterham/Atom etc?

JEff.

Now that is a great idea. Sod those long-dated government bonds. The really sensible place to stick your money is in a 50 grand Impreza. Better still, sell everything you own and buy a fleet of them - you'll get at least 10p in the pound when you come to sell them 2 weeks later.
