PORSCHE BOXSTER ROADSTER CAR LEASING
Though the Porsche Boxster roadster might not be as old as the famous 911 that Porsche also produces, you can still quite easily form an argument for this car being a modern-day classic. How can a new car be a classic? Well, if we rewind back to 1996, when Porsche swept the covers off the new Boxster roadster, it caused a sensation. Its sleek, two door, roofless silhouette was reminiscent of some Porsche models of the 1950’s and 60’s, and people could not get enough of it. Until 2003, this was the most popular model that the company produced, only being surpassed by the luxury SUV called the Cayenne. It didn’t just look good either, critics poured praise all over the car for its exceptional dynamic abilities and trademark Porsche feel in the hands.
In many ways, the current generation of Porsche Boxster Roadster lease is very much like the original, though a few things have changed, the classic formula first mixed up in 1996 remains more or less identical. As for changes, well the need to embark on a quest to downsize engines has affected all car manufacturers, so now Porsche makes a 2.0 or 2.5-litre turbocharged ‘flat-four’ for the Boxster roadster. In the base Boxster, the 2.0-litre provides the driver with 296bhp – good enough for a 0-62mph time of 5.1-seconds – and in the more powerful Boxster S, the larger 2.5-litre unit features a substantial 345bhp and an acceleration time of 4.6-seconds to 62mph.
Speeds can be increased by selecting the popular optional extra called the ‘Sport Chrono Package’. This boosts acceleration in both cars by 4 tenths of a second. A 6-speed manual gearbox is the standard transmission, but there is an option of a 7-speed double-clutch ‘PDK’ automatic transmission if you prefer a shifting style a little closer to what Formula 1 drivers feel for your Boxster Roadster personal lease.
The Porsche Boxster roadster has an ‘MR’ layout, meaning the engine is mounted in the centre of the car behind the two seats. This means that the front of the car is where you’ll find the storage space. There’s 275-litres of room in there, enough for two small bags for a weekend getaway, an ideal adventure for this car, especially enjoyable on beautiful rural roads.
