After 16 months of Macan GTS we have swapped for a Boxster GTS and a BMWi3 for the commute. Man maths at its best. Replaced one car with two with net monthly saving.

Loved both of our Macans. Boxster is different level of fun and a real sports car and the BMW is surprisingly fun to drive and costs £0.85 a day to get to work rather than £25.00!

If anyone is interested i will put some photos up. I think WingCo will approve as it is Miami Blue.

I have an i3 too - excellent and really cheap to run as you say. Boxster GTS will be a lot of fun.

Camera seems to alter the colour a little. Miami looks more vibrant in real life. Anyway the sun is shining so this will be getting some use this weekend.
