I hear you.
I am probably older then you

and have had my share of roadside issues in the old days..
But these are modern day cars.
No points to fry or need dressing.
No distributor advance springs to break.
No carbs to need adjusting.
Maintenance on today's cars (including the Porsche) is pretty simple.
There is not even any grease zert's to deal with.
So if regular maintenance is done on a modern day car, you should be able to go 20-30 thou. miles with nothing more that an oil change with no issues.
I have 170000 miles on my Honda CRV from new.
Things I have replaced.
1 battery
tires
oil
windshield wipers.
1 set of spark plugs
Brakes at 150000
Struts.
occasional light bulb.
That's it.
All maintenance items.
Just because a car says "Porsche" on it, it shouldn't be much different.
