I've just got my first Porsche - Boxster 2.7 year 2000. Very good condition and got it for sub £5k. Very pleased! Keep finding reasons to go for a drive!

I live in Cambridge and am wondering what to do about servicing/maintenance. There's the Porsche garage down the road, but am I going to be spending a big chunk of the cost of the car if I go there? Anyone any advice?

Cheers!

I've been using Autostrasse at Coggeshall (between Colchester and Stansted) for a few years and they're very knowledgable and good price for older cars.

Finley Gorham in Bury St Edmunds might be worth a try.

Try Auto 2000 in Kempston. Small but keen as mustard.
