My decision was pretty much made up about getting a Z4 and I've been looking at adverts over the last couple weeks to see what's available, but as I have been doing so the idea of a Boxter (yes, a cheap mans porsche if there is such a thing) has entered my mind.
I am looking to spend somewhere around £15-18k and plan on keeping it for up to 2 years, but maybe nearer 1, during which time less than 10k miles will be driven.
As far as I can tell the Boxtor will be more fun to drive and suffer less depreciation, whereas the Z4 for will be a little bit more refined and have more gizmo's and gadgets. I would also being looking at a slightly newer Z4 for the same money. I expect the servicing and insurance to be both on similar.
I would be grateful for any first hand advice or suggestions and if you think there are other areas of comparison.
Thanks in advance
