Porsche Boxster (2012 - 2016) 3.4 S 2d PDK (2013/13) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Interested in driving.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Looks great and nice colour !! (Graphite Brown).

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes - best value sports car available.

What are you likely to buy next?

Another Porsche but I intend keeping this several years yet.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£56,000

When did you buy the car?

April 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

There are no 'good deals' on Porsche they quote the price you choose to buy or not.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Liked Porsche but traded down from a 997 Carrera.

What was the dealer like?

Very helpful went on driving experience at the Silverstone driving centre before buying.

What's it like to drive?

Excellent - sharper than 911 (and I have driven a 991) but not as 'planted'. Suprising thing is that the chassis could take more pwer but I suspect Porsche won't be doing that as they want to keep the more powerful engines for the Carrera.

What's it like to park?

A nightmare - don't buy it without park assist.

Have you had any problems with the car?

No

What's most practical about your car?

Surprising amount of luggage space for a sports car - far more than in a Jaguar F type or Aston Martin Vantage.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Sat Nav/Bluetooth system.
