Porsche Boxster S - Detailed Buyer Information
At Global Classic Car Group, a 5-star Google-reviewed dealership in Muswell Hill, London, we’re delighted to offer this stunning Porsche Boxster S, finished in original gun metal grey with a rare 6-speed manual transmission. With 97, 000 miles and a single previous doctor owner, this 2000s classic, acquired through a specialist dealer in 2024, is in exceptional condition and ready to deliver an exhilarating driving experience.
Condition and Features:
• Mileage and Ownership: 97, 000 miles, meticulously maintained by one previous owner, a doctor, ensuring careful use and attention to detail.
• Exterior: The original gun metal grey paint is in superb condition, free of major scratches or blemishes. Unmarked 18” BBS split rim alloys with fresh tires enhance its sporty look, while the new power roof operates smoothly. Xenon headlights with upgraded washers add style and functionality.
• Interior: Full leather sports seats and a leather steering wheel are in excellent condition, with minimal wear, reflecting the car’s careful ownership. The upgraded stereo provides high-quality sound, and the working air conditioning ensures comfort. A custom car cover is included for added protection.
• Mechanical: The 3200cc drivetrain delivers thrilling performance, characteristic of the Boxster S. A comprehensive service has been completed, including an IMS bearing upgrade (a critical reliability enhancement), new flywheel, brakes, alternator, spark plugs, oil/ filter, brake fluid, and pollen filter. The car runs smoothly and is mechanically sound.
• Paperwork and MOT: Comes with all manuals, two original Porsche keys, and an advisory-free MOT, confirming its roadworthy status. The “Free MOTs for Life” offer adds exceptional value. The service history is robust, with recent major maintenance fully documented.
• Additional Features: Cruise control for relaxed drives and a solid, well-maintained structure.
Work Done:
• Full service, including IMS bearing upgrade, new flywheel, brakes, alternator, spark plugs, oil/ filter, brake fluid, and pollen filter.
• New power roof installed.
• Fresh tires fitted on unmarked 18” BBS alloys.
Work Needed:
• The car is in excellent condition with no immediate major work required. Routine maintenance, such as future oil changes or brake pad replacements, may be needed depending on usage, as is typical for a performance car of this age.
• Potential buyers may wish to inspect the clutch, given the mileage, though it currently operates without issues.
History Notes:
• Purchased in 2024 from a specialist dealer, this Boxster S has a clean history with one previous owner, a doctor, who maintained it meticulously. The low ownership and careful use contribute to its excellent condition. No accidents or significant issues are noted, and the complete UK paperwork ensures straightforward registration.

At Global Classic Car Group, a 5-star Google-reviewed dealership in Muswell Hill, London, we’re thrilled to offer this stunning Porsche Boxster S in original gun metal grey, a 2000s classic with 97, 000 miles, a rare 6-speed manual, and a single previous doctor owner. We acquired this car in 2024 from a specialist dealer because it embodies the perfect blend of Porsche’s iconic performance and timeless style, making it a standout choice for enthusiasts seeking an exhilarating yet practical convertible.
Why Buyers Will Love It: This Boxster S is a driver’s dream, delivering the raw thrill of a 3200cc flat-six engine paired with a slick 6-speed manual gearbox—a combination increasingly rare in modern cars. Its pristine gun metal grey exterior, unmarked 18” BBS split rim alloys, and new power roof make it a head-turner, while the full leather sports seats and leather steering wheel offer a luxurious, driver-focused cockpit. The car’s meticulous maintenance, including an IMS bearing upgrade, ensures reliability, and its advisory-free MOT and “Free MOTs for Life” offer add incredible value. With features like xenon headlights, upgraded stereo, and working A/ C, it’s as comfortable for weekend cruises as it is for spirited drives.
What Makes It Unique: The single-owner history, with a doctor who cherished and maintained it, sets this Boxster apart. The low ownership, combined with recent major servicing (new flywheel, brakes, alternator, spark plugs, and more), makes it a rare find in such excellent condition. The manual transmission and gun metal grey finish give it a distinctive edge, while the custom car cover and two original Porsche keys add to its collectible appeal. Its ULEZ-exempt potential (with MOT) makes it practical for city use, a bonus for a performance classic.
My Favorite Thing: Personally, I adore the visceral connection this car offers—shifting through the 6-speed manual as the flat-six engine roars behind you is pure automotive magic. It’s a car that makes every drive feel like an event, blending precision handling with the open-top freedom of a convertible.
Provenance Notes: The car’s history with a single, careful doctor owner since its import speaks to its pampered life. The comprehensive service history, including the critical IMS bearing upgrade, addresses a key concern for Boxster enthusiasts, ensuring peace of mind. Sourced from a specialist dealer, its clean record and complete manuals make it a collector’s gem. The combination of low ownership, rare manual gearbox, and pristine condition makes this Boxster S a standout in the classic car market.
