Lovely - I had that one saved. The interior looks great in that colour - the OP clearly wanted to avoid the solid colour everywhere approach of Porsche.

Do you mind me asking what you paid? Trying to gauge a very strange market!

Couple of hundred under the asking. I've looked at many and the prices seem to be firming up since I started looking a couple of months ago.

Thanks for that, very useful. As others have noted asking prices seem to vary wildly

Prices definitely on the rise for good cars. Its got more selective and the average ones not moving/dropping but good ones are rocketing up.

Hmmm, spot the front end collision evidence:

Deep gouges and odd gap in the bonnet shut line

They remove them quickly once a car is sold.

There's a hint on the steering wheel too

The Boxster highlighted has a very colourful MOT history since 2013 from a quick online check!

I asked them and they said "I’ve just had a close close round the car and has defo had no damage to the car, possibly the front bumper has been painted at some point in its life"

Well they're now on my 'avoid' list

If we're posting ads, I messaged the seller of this car. sounds OK, history etc., no bids on the bay but he tells me he's refused offers of £11K....

Edited by Skyedriver on Tuesday 21st June 19:59

so it ended with no bids (starting price £10,495) Now relisted starting at £10.995...)

It shows as £10,495. There are some really low grade service centres in the stamp book. It does look very nice though.....a lot of car for the money. Surprised it hasn't sold

Looks like the relisting is a classified with offer, not an auction.

They're probably looking for ~£10,750 now.

Looks lovely but maybe red isn't a super popular colour?

ah yes, my bad....I didn't click on the re-listed link. Well, lovely colour (i think it is popular), and £10.995 seems a good deal for such a top spec car and unmolested at that. Seen a lot worse around a similar sum on this thread.
