Been trawling the net for a few months looking at 3.2S Boxsters, never owned a Porsche before but always promised myself one.
Today I spotted one that seems ideal for me, seal grey, 53 plate, lowish miles and a hardtop which is something I really wanted.
The spec isnt that great, parking sensors, wind deflector, 18" GT3 style wheels etc nothing much really but looks like a very clean example, they are looking for 18k. Fair price?
The trade in on my present car is pretty awful (no surprise) and its rapidly losing money every month whereas the porsche should be a bit more bouyant?
I am torn between buying this one or hanging on until maybe March where they will probably be cheaper but my present car will be worth even less!
The porsche will be my only car, I work offshore so it will be parked up for 2 weeks at a time not getting used which should keep the mileage down.
What are they like to use everyday? The luggage space doesnt seem too bad for a mid engine car.
I am used to running cars with awful MPG figures but what would I expect to see out of a 3.2 that will get driven reasonably quickly most of the time, (I live in the country with some amazing roads!!)
Are they as reliable as I have heard?
Any help gratefully appreciated.
