Is my Boxster oveheating?

+1 on the ability for these cars to suck all manner of things into it. I pull my cover off every couple of years. Be sure to split the radiator and the condensing coils apart. Stuff manages to get in between them also. It's summer in New Zealand, gauge looks about right. Future considerations; X/O the water pump, perhaps a low temp stat and flush the system thoroughly.

+2 on cleaning the rads. The first time I did mine there were dozens of leaves, a surprising number of insects and on one side a bird. I installed ‘gutter guard’ grilles after doing the first cleaning and since then the debris has been greatly reduced when doing subsequent cleaning.
