I BOUGHT MY BOXSTER 2.5 (WANTED 2.7) BACK IN MAY LAST YEAR AS A TOY. I WAS DRIVING A COMPANY LAGUNA AT THE TIME AND ALTHOUGH THE LAGUNA WAS A GOOD CAR, IF YOU HAVE EVER DRIVEN ONE YOU WILL KNOW WHY I NEEDED SOME FUN. THE BOXSTER WAS A 1999 ON A T-REG AT THE TIME I PAID £18,000 FOR THE CAR (ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE DROPPED A BIT IN PRICE NOW) AND I THOUGHT THAT THE CAR WAS EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY, THE BOXSTER 2.5 IS QUICK, HANDLES EXCELLENT AND TURNS HEADS TO BREAKING POINT. IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT BUYING ONE I WOULD SAY THAT TO GET A 6 YEAR OLD, MID-ENGINED 'PROPER' SPORTS CAR FOR UNDER £16,000 WITH A PORSCHE BADGE ON THE FRONT, IS AN ABSOLUTE BARGAIN AND THE FUN YOU WILL HAVE IN IT WILL BE WORTH 3-4 TIMES THAT.
INSURANCE IS REASONABLE TOO.
THANKS FOR READING MY REVIEW. DEAN

i've never been in a boxster,but i do like the look of them. i think anyone who buys a boxters cant afford a 911. Well, thats what jeremy clarkson says! Phil

Unfortunately this needs more details to make it helpful. The caps make me feel that you are shouting at me! If you add more let me know and i'll rerate, Nicola

As below, reviews written in capitals are a lot harder to read. Not bad though. Chris :)
