vehicle description:

I bought this BOXSTER last April, it was the fastest convertible I could get for the money, and only intended it to be an occasional car for good weather. Shortly after, I acquired a Fiat Barchetta quite unintentionally! And ever since, every sunny day I open the garage door and play eeny-meeny-miny-mo to decide which one to go out in
Plainly a wasteful state of affairs, nobody needs 2 convertibles. I don"t know which one to keep, they both have their good points - the BOXSTER is a Porsche, it"s quick, it sounds wonderful. So let"s see which one sells first
The car itself, its done around 98000 miles, I"ve done about 2500 in the last year as it only goes out when the weather is nice, and when it gets its turn. I MOTd it at the end of November last year so still 7 months left. There is a whole stack of service history from before my ownership, and last summer it was serviced and given new brake discs/pads all round, new front Pirelli P Zero tyres while the rears are about half worn P Zero Rosso. Comes with two keys with built in remote control for the central locking, and the original owners" handbook
The BOXSTER comes with electric softtop, and also with the optional factory hardtop if you really want to use it in winter - I don"t, I just put the hardtop back on as I was storing it at my parents". The wheels are the optional Porsche 18, the original invoice for this is within the pile of bills included going way back. The interior is Oxblood leather with matching carpets, there are no rips or tears and it looks great. Just a nice patina that belies its age. There is a modern radio-CD player with DAB and removable front, but I never user it. Obviously all the normal stuff, electric windows, power steering, power hood, climate control and it all works as it should
Car runs great, the brakes are an upgrade, not 100% sure if from a 3.2 BOXSTER or 911 in origin.
Bad points - easy to say hardly any. It is 18 years old so plainly would not win concours, but equally it was the best one of the many I looked at last year, including those at dealers. So the body is straight, a couple of stone dents, stone chips and light scratches, no visible rust etc. Inside, the only issue is with the temperature gauge where the needle has stuck and moved off the end of the scale - this is a mechanical gauge fault, the engine is fine and runs at proper temperature regardless of traffic/country/fast driving
The car is pictured wearing my private plate which is not part of this auction and will be removed, the car will revert to a standard R registration
