My current 3 year lease on an Audi TT is coming to an end and I need to make a decision about my new vehicle. I want a sporty car which has prestige and style but I would like something different than my current TT!
In the past I have always driven leased vehicles. It just made sense. Although leasing means that you don’t actually own the Subaru Parts Kent car, it offers a lot of other benefits. Expensive cars for a small monthly fee, no depreciation to worry about and flexibility to upgrade your vehicle to a new or different model. However this time I want to purchase a car whilst still being a little “frugal”! Although I wouldn’t sacrifice style for frugality.
After a lot of research I have come to the conclusion that the 2006/56 Porsche Boxster 2.7, could be the car for me. The age of car means that the main depreciation period has past and I can expect to pay between £15,000 -£16,000 for a used Boxster. So what does it offer for my £15,000?
It is fast, fun and comfortable. It has sufficient trunk space and has a super-stiff chassis which ensures the Boxster remains sturdy even when driven with the roof down. The interior is classy, as you would expect from any Porsche and many models have a full leather interior which I would be willing to pay extra for. Sounds attractive and the great thing about buying a Porsche is that they are well built and serious faults are very rare. The only problem could be that when things do go wrong, Porsche repairs tend to be rather pricey! Decision time.
