Not sure I would buy any of these, and certainly not the XKR!

Can't possibly describe that as "a wee sporty thing"!

More like a fooking great money pit, and you will need to be winning big time, regularly, to run any of them!

Check insurance, road tax rates, and fuel consumption....low twenties at best, and then maintenance (particularly on the Porsche)
and you could be well out of your depth (that with respect, as not knowing your personal circumstances)!

Consider a Mazda MX5, or an Audi TT (both available with engine, and spec options) and the TT in either cabriolet, or coupe body styles.
Both hold their value well and are a blast to drive....

Alternatively a Mercedes SLK, with a power hard top, would be a very good choice....

very wise words Lady Ferret  .

It's all about the upkeep  ...first thing i did when i had a win like that one year was pay off my council tax for the year .
