Still for sale, but not pushing it until I have new tyres on the front and a fresh MOT. Just put new brembo pads in on the back because the wear sensor was on - the old pads were thick, but the sensor reused and damaged with a bit broken off!
2003 3.2 S manual (260PS), 18in turbo twist, cruise control - 109,000 miles, reasonably comprehensive history, roof was tired so I bought one from a 42,000 mile car. Has a few marks, and rattly heatshields on the cats (tubes, and the big ones you can replace). IMS done around 79K...
...but right now it needs two P-Zero Rossos for the front (£280 last time I looked), an alignment, and is MOTd to just into July IIRC.
I wouldn't go below £5K - with tyres etc. and a year's MOT I'd probably ask £7995 at this time of year, whether I'd get it or not is another matter 😂 ...
... I want a taller, softer soft top like a Vitara GV2000 or Jeep Wrangler 4.0, or money and I'll buy another SLK/Focus CC/CLK or similar. I don't drive enough places to enjoy the Porsche and if I want "silly and low" I'm restoring an FD3S RX-7! But to me cheap Boxster is £2-3K 2.5/2.7 simplicity
This is exactly the discussion we were having. Like mine, there’s a few imperfections but it means we can go out and actually drive them, not panic about a stone chip, or a few extra miles adding some depreciation, or only being able to park in empty supermarket car parks
I know, but we all know there’s “cheap to buy, costs twice as much as a reasonable one would have cost if you’d just bought that” or “reasonable to buy and is sorted” or finally the “pretentiously overpriced stuff”

Wouldn't say "cheap" though!
