You could keep it and drive the Porsche less often. You can use your Porsche for occasional drives only. This has the benefit of making the Porsche feel special even when it is the same car.
Totally agree. If they are not daily, even if it does throw a few errors here and there, you would not get disappointed.

Or one could get a TVR Tuscan nowadays, similar price range, might feel more special imho thumbup

I would personally go for a 996 C4S as they are the only Porsche in that price range that will start to appreciate.
Where have you been for the last 18 months! Virtually all 996's are appreciating now, some more than others granted, especially very good 996.1s. Good 996.1s are costing £20k plus now - really good ones a lot more (one was recently advertised for £27k and sold within 2 weeks)...
