Evening,
As per the title really - has anyone here made the move from a 4l Chimaera to either a Boxster or Cayman S? How have you found it? Was it the right choice?
I'm intending to sell my Chim next month and the S version of the above is a possibility for replacement (987 guise I think - 55 plus?) Is the S noticablt quicker than the chim?
I adore TVRs but am just so nervous about the S6 that would be the natural upgrade for me.
What are the common faults on them? running/service costs etc?
I had a 55 plate 2.7 for a month as a hire car about a year or so ago and it felt a fair bit slower than the TVR and one of the key reasons for selling up is the need for more power/speed as well as something a little more modern.
Budget will be 25k ish.
