While I used Michelins on my Boxsters and even all my other cars and SUVs in the last 20 years, I wouldn't even go as expensive as Michelins for this car. An undemanding use doesn't require the best.
New tyres fitted yesterday and a few miles covered, so far it hasn't thrown me in the ditch so all looks good.

Thanks for all the advice.
