Hi, thanks guys.

If the price is right then I hope we strike a deal.

Do tell Recycled, what happened.

HI Craig,
I was into the 3rd year of ownership of my 2001 Boxster base. Most of everybody has heard about mine. Got a CEL light. Camshaft deviation out of tolerance and got green crud in the oil filter. Likely chain guide rails disintegrating. I let the prospective buyer know what was going on and sold as is. I did however drive it in our cold winters and I think that this is really hard on the motor. Scotland does not get the extreme temps we get here.

Don't let me discourage you from your P plans. My next sports car will be a used Miata which I have had before. Considerably cheaper to run but less car than a Boxster. The car after the next Miata will likely be a you guessed it a P car of some description. I have no regrets of having a Boxster in my past. The most fun motoring in my life.

PM sent Craig.
Cheers, Guy

This car doesn't have a lot of factory options:

heated seats
sport seats
red seat belts

+ an aftermarket nav

It would be worth more if it was heavy loaded with options, but this one is pretty light. Factor that into your offer.

Hi chaps, changed car plans, think I am putting deposit on the below car. Don't want to give the impression that I am 'under the thumb' but my wife prefers the colour and to be honest I prefer the wheels and car details. I like the history details of the car with the advert V5, HPI, Service history, RAC inspection.

Hi, heading down to get the car on Friday. Managed to get a good deal I think! so can't wait to get it. Driving back up to Glasgow will give me an excellent opportunity to get to know the car, I will of course give it a thorough going over in the test drive before I pay for the car.

Update on Friday
