24,750 warranted miles
Report from Richter Automotive confirming the engine has never been over-revved
Fitted with new Michelin Pilot Sport tyres by the previous owner
Next service not due until April 2027
MOT valid until October 2026 with no advisories
One of just 114 manual examples currently licensed in the UK according to 'How Many left'
The Appeal
The 981 Cayman GTS sits atop the naturally aspirated Cayman range, pairing a 3.4-litre flat-6 with a six-speed manual gearbox: a combination that increasing regulation has made all but impossible to replicate in a modern production car. Lowered by 20mm over the standard Cayman and equipped with Porsche's PASM adaptive suspension, the GTS was built to be driven with intent on tight, twisty roads, and its compact proportions make it a rewarding and usable companion on British B-roads.
This example, finished in black with satin bronze Carrera wheels and bright red brake callipers, presents exceedingly well at 24,750 miles. It was purchased from Richter Automotive in October 2025, who provided a report confirming the engine had never been over-revved, a reassuring detail for any prospective buyer of a high-revving naturally aspirated Porsche. The previous owner is described as particularly meticulous, and under current ownership the car has been used lightly as a third family car. With its next service not due until April 2027 and an advisory-free MOT in place until October 2026, it is ready to be enjoyed.
The vendor says:
"The car feels like a genuine modern classic; a purist's performance car which cannot be replicated today due to increasing legislation. The colour and trim options elevate this as a timeless car for the Porsche purists."image.png5.6 MB
