Itâs clear to see from the condition that the car has been garaged & well cared for. Accompanying the car is its original purchase invoice from AFN Guildford, a full book pack, 3 sets of keys & a binder of supporting documentation that proves its main-dealer provenance. It has just received a fresh oil service at Porsche Centre Norwich. Service history: 2001 – 6,950 miles 02 – 11,167 04 – 14,727 06 – 18,464 08 – 20,046 09 – 20,666 12 – 22,191 15 – 24,496 20 – 25,022 26 – 25,248 MOT History: 2003 – 13,856 miles 04 – 14,359 05 – 16,802 06 – 17,884 07 – 19,160 08 – 20,398 09 – 20,532 10 – 20,914 11 – 21,472 12 – 22,240 13 – 23,364 14 – 23,971 15 – 24,478 16 – 24,619 18 – 24,774 19 – 24,780 23 – 25,039 25 – 25,044 26 – 25,232 Finished in the timeless Arctic Silver Metallic, the car presents very well overall & retains the understated, timeless appearance that suits the Porsche Boxster perfectly. The exterior of the car presents very well, as you would hope for a car presented by ourselves. All badges, glass & lights are in very good condition, as are the original & factory option 18″ Turbo Wheels. The seat bolsters retain their original shape & structure with negligible wear, mirroring the very low mileage. The original switchgear, leather steering wheel, & dashboard remain in fantastic condition. Factory options include heated electric seats, traction control, & the desirable period MiniDisc radio paired with the factory CD changer. Original floormats are still in place & are of course in good condition too. At the heart of the Boxster S is the naturally aspirated 3.2-litre flat-six engine producing around 250 bhp. Coupled with the crisp 6-speed manual gearbox, this car offers a raw, analogue driving experience that modern sports cars simply cannot replicate – it really does drive exceptionally well. The car starts & runs beautifully, no unwanted noises, no smoking, just a nice quiet engine which performs very well with a smooth power delivery through the rev range. Having undergone regular main dealer maintenance throughout its life & a fresh main-dealer check over & oil service, plus new spark plugs, fuel pump & other items also fitted recently. With its mid-engine layout, uprated ‘S’ suspension & larger cross-drilled brakes, the 986 S is widely celebrated as one of the best handling chassis of its era. On the road, the steering feels communicative & tight, the clutch & gear shift are precise, & the chassis feels completely composed. Having covered just 25,297 miles from new, it offers the tight, factory fresh dynamic feel that begs to be driven. * All data derived from vehicle licensing statistics published by the Department for Transport in the UK, Appreciating Classics Limited cannot be held responsible for any errors or inaccuracies.
