usman10316 Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Hi guys, Yes you read it right - yet another post about the world's most famous or infamous Boxster S tiptronic. Indeed many of you are aware of some of the cringe moments this car went through and we have spent many hours debating about this car, it's seller, it's brakes, did the oil change actually work and those black alloys. Today I'd like to share some good news about this car. As you know it has been off the road for a couple of years and SORN. As I watched my fav episode again yesterday I checked MOT history and lo and behold it passed its MOT! YES! It has an MOT and is, in theory, on the road. Now - I won't tell you it's MOT history as that's going to be up for discussion but it was nice to finally see it pass an MOT. Who knows it could be up for sale again in the future?

The Boxster they worked on was the black one-the vehicle they used to introduce the episode was the silver one I mentioned above-didn't mean to confuse anyone ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usman10316 Posted March 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Interesting - I don't think I'd buy a car that's been on TV tbh. But that's another conversation. I do wonder where the black boxster s is though. Did anyone manage to look at the MOT history? The gearbox had an oil leak which I find interesting.

Lots of money is made doing just that - e.g James Bond's Aston Martin from Goldeneye, £1.91m or Del Boys Reliant van £44.2k! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
