About this car

This is a first-generation 987 Boxster with the entry-level 2.7-litre flat-six and a six-speed manual gearbox, registered in 2008. It has covered 51,000 miles and has had two previous owners, which is low for a car of this age.

Ruby Red over black leather is an uncommon combination, and the dealer says it sees only a couple of such cars a year, most being silver or black. Equipment includes 18-inch Boxster II alloys, heated seats, park distance control, rain sensor, auto-dimming mirrors and a Porsche crest embossed in the headrests.

The service booklet records ten entries: the first four by Porsche and the next six by marque specialists. The dealer describes the paintwork and cosmetic condition as very good.

Performance

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Porsche UK/European figures for the 987.1 Boxster 2.7 manual: 245 PS, 1,305 kg DIN, 160 mph. Porsche UK published 0-62 mph (6.1s), not 0-60, so 0-60 is null. Country is null because the car was built both in Stuttgart, Germany and at Valmet in Finland.).

Top speed: 160 mph
Weight: 1,305 kg
Power to weight: 185 bhp per tonne
Engine: 2,687 cc, 6 cylinders
