Highlights

Only 44,588 miles from new
Distinctive Speed Yellow paintwork
Well-maintained under current ownership
Full set of Michelin P4 tyres with plenty of tread remaining

The Appeal

If you're in the market for a 911, be sure to drive a Boxster first. You might just reconsider...

Nimble, lightweight and mid-engined, Porsche's junior flat-six sports car is eminently worthy of your consideration. This 2003 manual example is a first generation 986 Boxster, and you'll no doubt have noticed the striking Speed Yellow paintwork.

With only 44,588 miles under its belt, it has been sparingly used and reportedly well-maintained. The current owner has addressed minor advisories from the last MOT, and the car is expected to pass the next test advisory-free.

It's rare to find such a well-preserved, low-mileage example, so don't miss this excellent opportunity.

History and Paperwork

MOT until April 2025
44,588 miles indicated
Last MOT had two minor advisories: discoloured side indicators (now changed) and headlights with contaminants (now refurbished)
The vendor is confident that the Porsche should pass next MOT with no advisories
Purchased in April 2023
Only used in warmer months and kept under a cover in colder months
Six registered keepers from new; we're informed that little is known of this Porsche's past, besides the fact it's covered few miles

The Condition

Very presentable for its age
Folding convertible hood in smart order and reportedly operating well
Some age-related marks such as small scratches to the paint, as expected for a vehicle of its age
One wheel has a couple of small scuff marks; all other wheels are in good condition
Minor age-related marks, such as a couple of small spots where the clear coat needs attention
Smart OEM alloy wheels with a full set of Michelin P4 tyres with plenty of tread remaining
Upgraded side indicators; everything else is reportedly standard and untouched
Practical with both a front and rear luggage compartments

The Mechanics

2.7-litre water-cooled flat-six
Five-speed manual gearbox
The vendor reports a slight scratchy sound when cornering hard, possibly due to a rear wheel bearing issue, but it does not affect vehicle performance and is the only known mechanical issue
We're informed that the Boxster has been surprisingly fuel-efficient
All reportedly functions as it should
