Porsche is a company that values its traditions and its independence yet when that independence was threatened in the nineties, it reverted to type, attempting to prove itself in competition. The result, through a convoluted series of events, was the Porsche Carrera GT road car and it's possibly the most unadulterated hypercar we've ever seen. Everything about it was nirvana for the purist, from the mid-mounted engine to the lack of electronic intervention. Only built for two years, the Carrera GT remains the pinnacle of Porsche's roadgoing achievements. Here's how to net a used example.

About the Porsche Carrera GT

Now seems to be a very good time to buy a Porsche Carrera GT. Values are as low as they're likely to get (in real terms) and the image of this car can only improve when viewed with the benefit of hindsight. With over 1,200 in circulation, you should be presented with some choice so be fussy but don't hang on too long if you want to take advantage of a soft market.

Representative finance example

If your borrow amount is £7,000 with a deposit of £1,000, a selected term of 48 months, at a representative APR of 17.9% (fixed) and an annual fixed interest rate of 17.9%, you would pay £171.83 per month. Total charge for credit would be £2,247.84 and total amount repayable is £8,247.84.
