Why a Westy ?
So, I had a Porsche Boxster, and it's the longest I've kept a car, just over 3 years.
The problem with them is value for money, they were expensive new, and that cost doesn't disappear as they become affordable to buy.
Now I did all my own brakes and service jobs, but anything that involved getting near the mid engine, meant a big bill, so the novelty was wearing off.
I sold it onto the motor trade in June ( the trader is still trying to sell it on after adding £2k to the price he paid me ) not many people want a 99k miles Boxster.
What to replace it with, Looked at forums and went with an MX5, it lasted 1 month with me before I sold it on, at a slight loss, what an over rated vehicle. Raw driving pleasure, the closest to a 60's MG you can get etc etc, it was like driving my nans Datsun in the mid 80's !
On top of that, there was no sense of occasion.
I needed something a bit more daft.
Fire up the Ebay !
