Hi everyone,
I'm a new member and after some advice please...
Mrs is pregnant with our first child which has resulted in me selling the Porsche. However, I've persuaded her the logical replacement is the gran turismo 4 seats and boot (pretty small, I know)
I'll be doing an average of 5-6 k miles per year, if that. I'm thinking about a GT 4.2 2008 with roughly 35k miles on the clock. In my mind this won't depreciate much more which then covers any service costs I have to fork out.
My only concern is that most of the cars are now out of warranty or will be shortly after I purchase it. Is it worth getting a third party warranty for 1500-2000 extra? I'm aware that the chances are they won't pay anyway so is it really worth it. From my research it seems these models are pretty reliable now and maybe not necessary
I had a quote fr a 37 k service from an Indy specialist (Synter ) which would cost 1k. This would be a standard service oil, filters, etc. Is this reasonable for this type of service?
Any tips on buying a used gt? Anything else I should watch out for or consider cost wise?
Many many thanks in advance....
