Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 2001 Porsche Boxster S, in Lapis Blue with Graphite leather and a desirable 6-speed manual transmission, has been owned for twenty years and shows under 72,500 warranted miles. While mechanically sound with recent service and MOT, the paint has lost some lustre and exhibits minor cosmetic flaws that may require attention, indicating a well-used but cared-for modern classic.
Condition
7
The car has been well-maintained with only minor cosmetic imperfections, such as light swirl marks and two small stress fractures near the rear wheel arches and sills. The paint has lost some lustre, and these areas may benefit from cosmetic attention. However, the mechanical aspects, including the engine, gearbox, and convertible roof, are reported to be in good working order, and the tires are in very good condition. Given the age and the described cosmetic wear that requires minor attention, a 'Very Good' rating is appropriate.

Showing fewer than 72,500 warranted miles, the car was serviced and MOT'd in May 2026 and is presented ready for summer enjo...
