The Appeal


Porsche's legendary mid-engined roadster is the avenue that many enthusiasts truly discovered the magic of Stuttgart, and with the Aero kit, it's got plenty of visual theatre. Finished in a handsome Guard's Red over a black leather cabin, this example cuts a striking figure - a 986 that's ready and raring to meet its lucky new keeper.

The vendor describes this as a very clean car that presents well, going so far as to say it is one of the best Boxsters they have driven and owned. The interior leather has been freshly Connolised, and the car sits on its correct genuine turbo twist wheels. The vendor reports that the car has wanted for nothing, and we certainly think it's a fine example.
