But you had a macan and werent really a sports car driver - which will be noisier to give "drama"

Its all about what you want from a car...

I went for an 09 version, but even then the prices have rocketed since last year.

I was looking at 30AE orange ones last year and there were HEAPS on the market, some zero mileage. Now, there are virtually none.

Think its similar across other sought after marques

Not really true. Yes I had a Macan but I wasn’t looking to replace it with a sports car. I was trying this out as a sports car and wasn’t impressed. I actually could have engineered to keep it for the weekend but returned it Friday evening as I really wasn’t wanting to drive it any more. May be for others but not for me at all. Compare that with the 992 911 I drove and could have stayed in it for ever.

Happy lockdown place Agree the 30AE is the one, bit of bargain with all the kit and got mine for way less than those figures, hence my shock!

All eyes on the 35th soon

I bet that MX5 is ace, what more do you need for sunny weekend blast.

I am not 100%, flat out, must be a Cayman, so am open to options.

I believe JCT 600 are doing some attractive finance deals at the moment.

Would a lease totally lose the interest for you? Just thinking of options; would 3 years to scratch an itch and let you enjoy it without too many worries work for you?

This might be decent if the numbers are real; 4.0 GT4 - https://www.leaseloco.com/car-leasin.../2-36-8000-1-0

£35k for 3 years, 8k p/a and just hand back? Maybe more than the depreciation though?
5k p/a takes it down to £950 a month. Sorry if this is absolutely of no interest!
