The Boxster was unveiled in late 1996 and was the first Porsche since the 550 Spyder to be designed from scratch as a Roadster. It was penned by Dutch designer Harm Lagaay, who was also primarily responsible for the 968, 993, Cayenne, 996 and Carrera GT. At launch it was 2. 5-litres in capacity, but the standard offering was increased to 2. 7-litres in 2000. The M96 engine related to that in the 996, and the newcomer also shared that car's bonnet, front wings and headlights. The suspension was independent all-round, braking by power-assisted ventilated discs and steering by rack and pinion.
First registered on the 11th May 1998 and with five recorded former keepers, this Boxster is finished in the rare and handsome colour combination of Arena Red Metallic complemented to a Sahara Beige leather interior. There are invoices on file for maintenance and servicing with the same garage, Biddulph Exhaust and Tyre of Stoke-on-Trent from 2009 to 2018. Work completed (invoices on file), has come to in excess of a £3, 000 with the garage over the years. Work has included the replacement of the alternator, water pump and the auxilliary belts and pulleys in May 2018, an MOT and check over in April 2016, a 'full' service, a new rear shock absorber, a new front and two rear drop links and an MOT in March 2015, a service and brake pads in March 2012, plugs, coils and servicing in February 2010 and a service in 2009. The Boxster is offered with an owner's wallet and handbooks, a collection of invoices and old MOT history and the current V5C Registration Document.
