The Appeal

The 987-generation Porsche Boxster with a five-speed manual gearbox is one of the most rewarding open-top driving experiences of its era. The mid-engined layout delivers a beautifully balanced chassis, and the naturally aspirated engine rewards those who enjoy working through the gears on a favourite road.

This Arctic Silver Metallic example has been in the same hands for over five years, during which time it has been maintained by marque specialists. It is reported to start promptly, drive well, and feel solid and well sorted on the road. With a change in the owner's circumstances prompting the sale, this is a well-maintained Boxster ready for its next keeper.
