When to let go?

Hi,

I am new to the forum but have owned and driven my '98 boxster for 3 years now. It has nearly 138,000 miles. The clutch and waterpump and convertible top motor (ooops...my fault!) have been replaced. It runs well although it rattles a bit (?possible suspension going?). :ah:

I love the car, but I do a lot of freeway driving in LA. I'm trying to decide if it's time to trade it in for a different Porsche before something "major" going wrong either kills me or makes me stranded on the freeway...do you think that it is less reliable and/or less safe the higher the miles go?

Or, do you think it's just as reliable as a low-mileage Porsche who's potential "problems" haven't been discovered?

What would you tell your wife/daughter?



Thanks a bunch! Dixie
