I always read Honest John in the Telegraph on Saturdays as he gives interesting general advice on motoring. However he does not seem to like Boxsters and regards them as unreliable. Yesterdays included "....Boxsters do not respond well to light use. Brake discs rust and cooling system problems occur. You can't see the engine, so it is hard to tell what is going wrong. Note that Boxsters only have a two year warranty and Warranty Direct will not cover them."
Now I fall into the light use category with my one year old 987 and wonder the extent to which his comments support experience? I know cars thrive on use so that low usage is an issue with any car. Frankly with modern cars seeing the engine does not help much; I couldn't see much of the engine in my previous BMW 3 series as it had a dirty great plastic cover as do most current vehicles. Has any one any observations?
