BoxstrAl Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 When I was looking for a boxster, a similar spec 981S was starting around £35k and they weren’t even limited edition’s 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonttt Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 A new addition to the register #620........ Very low miles (17k), very limited pics but I think basic spec for a Black Edition and up for c£33k https://www.mortimersprestige.co.uk/used-cars/13958277-porsche-boxster-gen-ii-3.4-s-pdk-black-edition/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always going to fetch a premium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black edition has far lower mileage. The white one has had 4 owners. Seems like the Black edition premium doesn't really exist - just the kudos attached to 'limited edition' status.

Jonttt Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Its very rare to find a none Black Edition or Spyder with the Spyder wheels, they where very expensive to retrofit….and still one of the best and lightest Porsche Wheels 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a car we have sold previously and we used the phots we took before as the weather has been so miserable. The mileage advertised is the correct mileage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zlac017 Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Compares very nicely to this which is 3 grand more, private/not from a reputable specialist, and doesn’t have anywhere near the same spec https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202206136752749 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nath Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 I'd be tempted by this to get back into a manual. Exactly the same spec as mine but less miles... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonttt Posted October 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 #257 has come back up for sale on Pistonheads. some alarm bells ringing with this one as the both the description and Spyder wheels are missing. I think this is since the last time it was sold as I would have noticed the wheels striaght away 🤔 Its advertised as sports seats and full leather interior options and it has neither. There are usually a few explanations and probably a combination in this case but: - dealer does not know what porsche sport seats and full leather are (easy to spot if you know what to look for) - dealer does not know spyder wheels are standard and a main feature of the Black Editions as they are very expensive. They do actually describe the correct 18inch wheels The reason for the errors could be: - previous owner knew the value of the wheels and removed them to sell seperately (sigh) - previous owner did not like 19inch wheels and changed for 18inch (unlikely as they are very light and descent ride quality), the car was setup for them from factory - leather probably just an error but the advert expressly states >£14k of options. The car is not even close to that level of options (despite the norm of including PDK as a £3k option lol). If the dealer has used the build sheet and it included £14k of options then the car has been seriously messed with. The usual and only reason to change a leather dashboard for a none leather one is following crash damage In summary I'd feel aggrieved if I bought this car as advertised and found out the most desirable options stated on the car are not and its missing the all important spyder wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's two Black's on Auto Trader. I think they maybe two cars that aren't on the register. I don't currently own one, but I am looking around. I'd ideally like a PASM equipped car, and definitely a Manual. Would should I look out for? Are there any problems or issues specific to the Black? Thanks in advance. 🦊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
