Porsche owner ...What's the daily drive.....
Discussion
After selling my daily Aston V8 Vantage at Christmas, last month I bought a 2001 Mini Cooper to be my new commuter. It's an auto which is great in traffic - I was initially reluctant to get an auto (never had one before) but the missus is learning to drive in an auto so it made sense. When she passes her test the car is hers.
Meanwhile I'm just about to buy my first Porsche - a 996 C4. This will initially be used 2/3 days a week but that could change when the missus passes her test!
I echo the comments on the old 8L Audi S3 - had one for over 2 years as my daily and it was a great car and very quick A to B on the back roads (with a few mods...).
Also commuted in a modified B5 RS4 for over 2 years and that was frustrating overkill. 440bhp is useless when you're inevitably stuck behind a Punto, and 19mpg was a very good day (14.5mpg ave.)! Great car on an open road though.
