I had a '57 Cayman for a couple of years about 10 years ago. Best car I ever had - it helped that the first owner was an enthusiast who had kept it alongside his Ferraris and Lambos in spotless garage and that the car looked absolutely as new. A couple of unplanned encounters with my local traffic police and the sad realisation that the car was a better car than I was a driver meant I sold it.
Then a couple of years ago my wife bought a '22 2.0 Macan which has been similarly amazing.
I have not really been following the market since then, but a friend mentioned that Taycans had fallen out of bed and I vaguely remembered being enticed by the dealer at the time we were buying the Macan. A search back of old emails revealed we'd gone as far as speccing a car for a quote, which came in a few hundred pounds shy of 100k
. We could not afford it and were never really in the market for 2 cars but the test drive did make me seriously consider it for 5 seconds!We are selling the Macan as madam wishes to rotate into a new-model Defender (don't ask...). I might consider a used Taycan now they have shed 2/3 of their value - and gamble on the battery pack lasting me at least a few years - but undecided on that.
Anyhoo, the Macan is listed in the classifieds and (from comparison with other cars for sale elsewhere) looks a great spec to me. She put a panoramic roof, Bose, extended leather, 14-way seats etc. etc. on the car.
Hopefully it is of interest to someone!
