Yup so far they have been good. BMW were pretty snooty tbh.

When I have the funds, and the inclination, I will treat myself to a Boxster but until then i'm happy to run a reliable and fuss free car

I might, in the meantime, get another Merc though

My sister wants to sell her Boxter and she's up the road from you in Southampton, sounds like fate to me lol

Ooooo don't tempt me Ian :D

I think it might be a while before I get the Boxster but one day it will happen

A 911 [proper Porsche] would be much more fun;)

Not driven either then?

A friend of mine went from a Mk2 MR2 to a Porsche 911 Carrera. He only went in the dealers to get new windscreen wiper for the MR2. He then traded the Carrera for a Suberu Imprezza turbo. He reckoned the scooby was better in every respect. Then he acquired young children and had to trade in the Imprezza for a Forester. Not the quick one, either.

If you get one , this is the ONE TO GET :eyebrows:

Lol - depends what you're looking for. Totally different cars. I like a bit of class, with sporty cars (especially with interiors), and for me, the "scooby" has none - too 'boy racer'. It's fast though, I'll give it that!:D

Both the Boxster and the Cayman are proper Porsches - if anything the 911 has changed so much it's a caricature of its former self.
