Sorry to hear of your problems

fyi: there is a pretty good forum based on your side of the pond, boxa.net
Not as good as this one, but lots of people from the UK and Europe

If you buy a Boxster you had better plan on spending lots of time and money fixing stuff. The reason you got it cheap was the previous owner got tired of spending lots of money on it.The parts are expensive .If you have to pay for labor its going to hurt.My Boxster has had an engine put in with all the little bits and pieces all new rotors and shoes , new coil-overs all rubber bushing ,Zeon Headlights .New Seats all new exhaust .Two sets of tires all within 3 years .I love the car so I take care whats needed. Then when you thing its all done your power steering rack starts to leak .Mine is 19 years old at that point pretty much everything needs replacing. Learn how to work on it or get ride of it. Its not a cheap car to maintain.
