Used Porsche Boxster
I have been offered a used Porsche Boxster 2.7(245bhp) Tiptronic S 2006(56) with 17,400 miles in Lapis Blue metallic, full black leather, 18" alloys, Bose sound with Full Porsche service history, for sale at £15000 (private sale).
The car is advertised as garaged from new and in "stunning and excellent condition". With 1 full year MOT.
I have not seen the car in person only photos which indicate the above condition as correct.
Assuming the car is as described, what do you think of the price, is this a good deal? and are their any particular things I should be looking for when I go to view the car. It is not for sale locally, 50 miles away, so I would value your views before travelling to view.

Trade price is £13,260; retail £17,500, so this is a typical "private sale price". Low mileage is not good news with a water cooled Porsche, so below average mileage could be a problem rather than a benefit.

Enjoyable and easy to drive, wonderful engine sound, great performance, surprisingly practical for a two-seat sports car, good automatic PDK gearbox.
