big mike Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 I've a friend looking for a Boxster and he has seen the one below, does anyone know it? https://www.gumtree.com/p/porsche/porsche-boxter/1208525087 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagss2 Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Don't know it, but interesting to see a Box running 18" Cayenne wheels. .. I don't think KN wheels are staggered, so not sure whether that would be helping or hindering handling... Cheers, Baggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonewolfgjp Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Yes a great looking car but perhaps a bit pricey considering it doesn't mention clutch or ims change. It does come with a hardtop worth £500 but even then its still £8500 for a 986s. But definitely nice and if you could get them to shave a bit off the price it maybe a good one ?

Jason986S Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 He could have done a part ex for an identical slightly higher mileage/lower spec example and took/put £3k in his pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terryg Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I bought mine for £5995, lower spec older car, I had spent over £2000 within the first few months bringing it up to scratch so I don't think that one is mega expensive if it is in A1 condition with that mileage. I looked at a lot of s..t cars before buying mine so some may say I paid too much but I'd love to know where all these "bargains" are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I upped target price/budget by £2000 to buy my current car but don't regret it for a minute. I've still spent nearly a grand in a year on it, but some of that was out of choice or preventative/upgrades such as a short shifter. My only real expense was a minor service and replacement radiator/coolant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
