l've posted this in the the 993 forum and now want to get opinion from the Boxster side although it may be a bit of a daft question but I'm a bit of a daft person.
Hoping to buy a Porsche in the next 6-18mths. Mainly thought about a Boxster but having done a fair bit of research I don't lke the potential problems with RMS, Intermediate shaft, Cylinder liners, clutches, damper issues etc so have also thought about maybe a 993.
Whatever I chose will have to be run on a budget but I've got a got indy near me and access to full workshop facilities at my mates VW/Audi specialist for work I could do myself. Would consider have a runabout for the commuting chores too.
Don't really want to spend £900 a year on a warranty but will ensure the car is a good one and then look to keep it that way using an indy.
Lastly my budget would be £20-25K max so maybe thats not quite enough so there's every chance I just need to realise I can't afford to run a Porsche even if I have the money to buy one.
The 993 guys were very helpful and understandably came down on the side of the 993. So it's over to you folks all help/advice appreciated.
cheers
