Description
A fantastic example of the classic 2.7 Boxster 986 eye-catching, sharp in silver with Porsche racing stripe, and an absolute joy to drive.
Engine:
Runs smoothly and sounds brilliant. Recently fitted with a brand-new drive shaft and air/oil separator drives strong and reliably.
Brakes:
Firm and responsive. Pads show some wear, but fully functional and safe.
Interior:
Well-maintained throughout. Leather seats are in excellent condition, and the cabin is clean, comfortable, and equipped with electric seats and tidy carpets.
Electrics:
Everything works as it should convertible roof, radio, speakers, dash, lighting, and climate controls. The radio backlight is dim but readable in the right lighting. Horn occasionally intermittent; likely a clock spring issue.
Suspension:
Classic stiff ride you'd expect from an older sports car. Some components may benefit from a future refresh, but both a Porsche specialist and independent mechanic have confirmed everything is functional.
Gearbox:
Smooth, precise shifts through all gears no issues at all. Revs cleanly and delivers power confidently. Reported recent clutch replacement and feels as such.
Cosmetics:
Striking silver paint still shines, with expected minor wear and small imperfections shown in the photos. Some rust underneath, though nothing affecting mechanical components. Benefits from unique black wheels.
Ownership:
Owned for just under a year bought for the thrill, selling now due to practicality. A real treat for anyone after a stylish, reliable roadster with character.
To note:
Looking to refresh the headlights to a clearer pair, may be changed before sale.
Also benefits from classic car insurance with some brokers, making it surprisingly cheap to insure.
ULEZ compliant.
