2008 PORSCHE CAYMAN

A fantastic example of the increasingly sought-after 987 Cayman 2.7 manual, finished in Basalt black metallic with black interior and fitted with a premium Capristo switchable valved exhaust system. Sounds superb and transforms the car while retaining everyday usability.

Having covered 84,500 miles with a full service history and just 4 owners, this is a properly maintained enthusiast-owned example.

The Capristo exhaust transforms the driving experience, offering two selectable modes controlled by the driver — quieter standard mode for everyday driving and a louder sports setting delivering an incredible flat-six soundtrack.

The 2.7 flat-six engine pulls strongly, the 6-speed manual gearbox is smooth and precise, and the car delivers the balanced mid-engined handling the Cayman is renowned for. It remains one of the best sports cars available at this price point.

Additional features include Sports seats, Apple CarPlay with reversing camera, upgraded sound sytem, custom Alcantara steering wheel and matching gearknob, black wheels with red calipers.

Bodywork presents very well overall. As expected for an 18-year-old car there are some cosmetic age-related imperfections, with both bumpers previously refinished to a good presentable standard rather than concours.

Drives exactly as it should with tight handling, precise gearbox and strong clutch. Increasingly hard to find honest manual examples with quality upgrades like this and full history.
