The Appeal

The Porsche Boxster revolutionised the sports car market when it launched in the late 1990s, offering the balance of mid-engine handling precision and open-top thrills at a more accessible price point than its 911 sibling. It's often credited with saving the company during a time of financial turmoil, and continues to be one of the most successful cars ever to roll out of Stuttgart.

This 1999 example represents the first-generation 986 Boxster in its purest form, combining Porsche's engineering with the simple pleasures of top-down motoring. This particular car was imported from the dry climate of Arizona to the Netherlands, and thus appears to be a very solid car. With 152,053 miles on the odometer, recent mechanical refreshment including new Michelin tyres and suspension components, and a comprehensive history file, it's a fine opportunity to get into Porsche ownership, or a grand addition to your garage's fleet.
