The Appeal
The 987 took the original Boxster formula and made it simply better. The new car got better build quality, more power and sharper front-end styling. In S trim, as here, that means close to 300 bhp on tap.
Alongside that powerful 3.4L flat-six, this attractive light blue car has the desirable six-speed manual transmission. It is a sharp example with a well-kept blue leather interior featuring an upgraded infotainment system.
The history file shows a lot of work by specialists. We’re told that in recent years over £10,000 has been invested by its owners, including installing a new Porsche exhaust system. Other work has included a new cat lambda sensor, radiator cleaning, coolant system repairs and diagnostic testing. The service book shows a run of regular stamps from main dealers and specialists up to April 2026, since which time the car has covered few miles.
Well equipped, properly maintained and in good shape, this is a very clean Boxster. The current lengthy, clean MOT underlines the point.
The seller says:
“Well maintained, starts and runs perfectly, standard model as far as I'm aware, no known faults. Drives amazing, and handles like a dream.”
