My mate got himself a Boxster S last year and I took him out for a drive last October. He's been asking me to show him some more good driving roads so I cobbled a route together and it turned out to be a bit of a classic.

We were out driving for nearly 11 hours today, only stopping for loo breaks and a quick sandwich, and covering some 330 miles door to door.
