Been watching you tube clips, and been soul searching from cars I previously owned and think the porsche ticks the residual price an looks box and 3 years ago would have probably gone this path as a daily driver. But it don't tick the 'Fun' factor box enough - It's all about occasional fair weather weekend 'A' road blast or possible odd track day.
Think I've narrowed it down to a S2 111R - The Toyota engine with its 190bhp VVC which kicks in at 6300rpm till 8500rpm looks and sounds a hoot. Fun and special enough pootling around, and on the limit driving, given the right situation when on my own and in the mood. Servicing, maintenance, petrol all cheap, risiduals very good and might go up a little in value, and pretty much bullet proof.
Right then just need to find a perfect example for good money.. ironically again missed out on probably the best example I could get last week whilst I was trying to work out where my head was at. Always the way.... when your not looking a nice one comes along, then when you want one - Nothing.
