Well I've been looking at new cars on and off for about 4 years now and I'm sure there are numerous threads by me on here that will show that

I finally picked up my new car a couple of weekends ago. I only have a few pics for now.

I was looking at BMW Z4s for ages, but I wasn't sold on the new shape. The new car is a 2.7 PDK. It's got a few extras, PCM, Sound Package Plus, 19" Boxster S wheels, leather seats, heated seats, mobile phone prep etc.

It's a nice step up from my Astra Coupe that served me well for 7 years

I know it's ridiculous - I really wanted the 20" Carrera wheels but this car was already built so I took the hit.

It's Rhodium Silver. It is nicer in person, it's got a nice blue tint to it in the sunlight.

I looked at Agate Grey too, but it's quite dark and doesn't show the lines as nicely.

Bloke in work rolled up in one of these last week, nice grey colour. Everyone was wanking over it.

Really nice looking car. Back end looks fantastic.

Very jealous. Looks stunning and much nicer than the older models. Silver suits it well.

Agreed - the Cayman looks awesome. I just wanted some roof down action!

Looks great for a boxster. Normally find them a bit bland.

How is the Evoque? The Mrs wants one, so I reckon in a few years I will get rid of this and we can get an Evoque between us.

Really nice. Nice place to sit, nice to drive. It's only done 400 miles so far, not done any massive distances. Auto box is good. I would prefer a manual sometimes but for 95% of what it is used for, the new auto is the better choice.

Servicing is expensive unless you get the service plan (£500 for 5 years atm) but no more expensive than the boxster.

I fancy a one of thes 981's, swap
