The Porsche Owner's Companion is essential reading for every
owner who wants to enjoy the car without paying a penalty in depreciation. In
contrast with the many Porsche books developed along performance, historical
and production series themes, this one is about practical experiences in
driving. Specifically, preservation vs. consumption-the delicate balance
between retaining optimum value while still enjoying maximum satisfaction.
The author of this handbook consulted seasoned Porsche
motorists, interpreted the observations of sage professionals, and drew upon
personal experiences to assemble a considerable body of previously undocumented
driving lore.
Highlights include sections on safeguarding against theft,
performing value preventative maintenance, defensive driving, securing
competent reconstruction, obtaining adequate insurance, buying and selling.
The Porsche Owner's Companion is a vital accessory for your
car—a single source of useful advice. Whether you take it from the top or slip
into it at random, the author's clinical findings will assure a more fulfilling
relationship with your car.
