It doesn't state if it is RHD or LHD.

I think the steering wheel sort of gives the game away

Err, that could be the handle of a basket being carried in the front seat!

Er,
it might sport the latest Essex addition up front



the colour of the car after all, might be synonomous
with such foibles,

we must hope for the best

note lack of wicker basket/steering wheel!footnote]

Looks okay what's the spec S T or E?
Engine size probably a 2.0 on this year but not sure.
Pre impacts are fetching money but can be money pits also. £15k cheap but not when needs 20k to put right

ive seen that for sale on my searches.

i get a semi every time i look at it.

had thought that once ive finished paying for the 996 (sometime in 2020) i would buy a boxster as a second car. i defo think the cash would be better spent on this

You're better off with a 2.2 or 2.4 E or S...if you simply want the "look" buy a 912 for less money. It's what's under that "lovely" ruby red paint that would be a worry and this car is expensive for its spec (2 litre, caburetted, SWB). ut make no mistake, pre impacts are jewels if you find the right one

If its a 2.0 E or S then it will be a blast to drive, absolute screamer of an engine!

They really need to have the nuts revved off them to make them go, which a lot of people seem to be a bit reticent to do given the cars age, and fact most of them are cherished classics. I dont have that problem with mine hehe
