It's funny because when I was buying mine pretty much everyone that hasn't owned one was telling me how it'll gobble up all my savings, yet those that owned them said nothing of the sort.
Honestly the worst part about Pork ownership has been dealing with so called specialists. It's at a point now that I just DIY it to save dealing with laziness and incompetence. Fortunately it's not a valuable car so it doesn't matter.
I should probably have used the term loosely. I never had a Porsche, but have heard some quotes for a simple brake pad and disc change from a specialist and it was ridiculous. So much so, I checked eurocar parts for prices and it was plain to see that the guy was being ripped off.
A so called “specialist“ is good for diagnosing faults, as they have most likely seen the common issues, and will have any specialist tools required. For servicing, any good mechanic is fine.
