Buying a used Porsche Boxster - what should I look out for?
I am looking to buy a used Porsche Boxster for £30k+. This will be an approved car from a Porsche dealer and with 20k miles on the clock. What should I look out for on such a car? How easy is it to adjust the headlights for continental driving? I've seen a couple of cars with bi-xenon lights and dynamic lighting systems.

The bi-xenon lights probably dip down and don't need adjusting at all for driving on the right. A good tip when buying a used Porsche is to ask for a check of the ECU that records if the engine has ever been over-revved. There is a rev limiter, of course, but that does not stop the engine over-revving on a downshift is someone has been really hammering the car.

This Boxster is lighter and more economical than its predecessor. Claimed 36mpg. Good looking interior. Even better to drive than before.
