Hi everybody,
I've got a budget of approx 90k and I'm looking for something I can use as and when but can still excite.

Trouble is, I live in a rural location where it's a couple of miles of single lanes (tarmacced but barely) to get back to a proper road and a good ten miles before I reach any road starting with an A.

I've considered all the usual suspects but can't persuade myself that anything really exciting will cope with the reality of where I live. Thus, I keep returning to the 911 as my only viable option which is very much head over heart.

Anything I'm missing? Any experience to the contrary?

So what is your concern? Road surface quality, car width?
It's a range of things that could spoil ownership and leave the negatives outweighing the positives (subjective I know). I'm thinking about what car could cope well with day to day use on less than perfect roads in terms of maintenance and the associated problems this sort of car brings (visibility, width, potholes, high banks etc).

I think actually, I'm asking if another car (570S, R8) would tackle my particular needs without becoming a pain in the butt. I'm not emotionally tied to a 911, just have no knowledge on whether others could do the same job without undue hassle.

second hand Urus


in around 4 years
I started my search with performance 4x4s/SUVs thinking they would best suit, but as much as they are sensible, I couldn't throw this much money at one of those.

(p.s. I think the Urus is amazing and entirely out of budget).
