I couldnt get past the looks despite the Z4M being a corker and cheap

I think it's still got a bit of an image problem, despite its abilities. If I was spending that kind of money, Boxster S all the way, albeit probably a year or 2 older.

I wanted a car where I can tell which bit is the front and which bit is the back

I like the new Boxster but not the older ones.

Got it ! Love it !

Review in due course ... but for now - the noise !! BMW sports exhaust and improved breathing means a trip to tunnels is needed ! Averaging 22mpg so far so must try harder lol.

Dare I say it but it sounds better and goes faster than my Z4M Roadster did
