Chances are if you're buying a pre-owned Porsche, it will be
your dream car. Sure there are those folk driving Porsches purely as a means of
transport - they've got the money - they buy new - they keep the used Porsche
market going for you!
Buying a pre-owned Porsche is a sensible idea. Really.
The cars are built to last. Engineered to very high standards, 100000+ miles
can be nothing to a well maintained Porsche. They thrive on being driven every
day. Porsche Specialist Cyprus Nicosia
Running costs can be surprisingly low - though unlikely to
be "cheap". MPG figures in the mid twenties are common - driving
style makes a difference as ever.
A Porsche is a Supercar, none less so than in the eyes (and
policies) of insurance companies. These days, however, you can take advantage
of price comparison websites to find the best possible deal on insurance.
Specialist Porsche insurers do exist and, if your Porsche is old enough, you
may even qualify for reduced premiums under a "classic" car scheme.
Main dealer servicing will be at main dealer prices.
Fortunately, since the 911 has been around since 1964, there are many well
established specialist Porsche Garages. These are likely to be set up and run
by Porsche enthusiasts. The mechanics working there will enjoy servicing
beautifully engineered automobiles rather than run-of-the-mill mass market
mainstream cars and their workmanship and knowledge will reflect that. Search
the web for your nearest specialist garage then check out some Porsche forums
online to see if it gets the thumbs up or down.
Parts. Yes, Porsche parts can be costly but routine items
such as brake pads made by reputable manufacturers can be bought for not much
more than a set for a small hatchback. Major components, bought new, will be
expensive. Save money by checking them out before you buy the car or have
someone qualified for the job do it for you.
If you are in need of a replacement engine or gearbox,
consider going the rebuilt route. As with the servicing, there are numerous
firms specializing in Porsche rebuilds. Search the web, check out the forums
again.
So, your dream Porsche needn't stay that way. Just remember
to do your best to buy the best you can. Get some help with that if need be. Porsche Specialist Cyprus Nicosia
A final thought, if your dream needs a top up, put Porsche
into Googles Images Search and have a browse. Better still, go to the Official
Porsche Website and have fun with the "build your Porsche" feature in
the multimedia section. Lose yourself in the Porsche Web Cinema, there are even
audio tracks of the engine note! Oh! and before you click away, download some
fabulous Porsche pictures for your desktop.
