“The Porsche Boxster S is an astonishing car. Faster than ever but just as capable on the handling front. The classic flat six in the Boxster S is as responsive and memorable as ever, but feels more mature. There is added throttle response, considerable thrust and a stronger feel through the mid-range. The new Boxster is brilliant and continues to remain one of the world’s most entertaining road cars. With an extravagant new look, classy interior, added accommodation, improved performance, engaging handling and improved comfort, you could argue – at the risk of upsetting the legion of 911 fans – that it is now the most complete model Porsche produces.”
Autocar, 2012

Background
The Porsche 981 is the internal designation given to the third-generation Porsche Boxster models built by Porsche, released in summer 2012. The 981 reflects the new design language from the 918 Spyder and 991 series 911, and features new and revised engine and transmission specifications. Together with a new body, the type 981 features a new chassis; 40 per cent more torsionally rigid, the front track is 40mm wider, the rear 18mm wider and the wheelbase extended by 60mm, but with a small weight reduction of 30kg. The 981 Boxster is the last to feature a boxer six-cylinder engine. The engine does away with the Intermediate Shaft, which proved to be a weak link in pre-2009 Boxster engines.

Exterior
Our hand selected Boxster S looks stunning in its metallic coat of GT Silver Grey metallic. The 19-inch Boxster S II lightweight alloy are the perfect pairing to the paintwork. All the trim has a perfect finish, including the Optional GT Silver Roll over bars, as do the front headlights and rear lights. The windows drop as they should when you open the door. The engine and boot struts also operate as they should. The Red fabric hood is in excellent condition and operates perfectly, stationary and up to 35mph. It has a heated glass screen and remote key operation.

Interior
The Boxster S comes with the optional 14-way Leather Sports Seats with lumbar support, knee support, along with optional 3-stage ventilation and separate 3-stage heating. The optional memory system stores the drivers seat position, both mirrors position and optional steering column position in each of the two original Porsche keys, plus 2 extra profiles accessed on the drivers door panel. An optional easy access function can also be enabled which moves the seat back and steering wheel up on entry/exit, making it easy to get in and out, even when you are parked in a tight space. The seat and wheel automatically return to their stored positions when you get in and put the key in the ignition. The rare and highly desirable optional extended Garnet Red leather with Red stitching dashboard, centre console, doors and seats are in excellent condition and provide a perfect compliment to the GT Silver metallic bodywork. This combination of exterior and interior colours was chosen for the Porsche 981 Boxster brochure, as seen in the PDF available on our website. There are no marks or signs of wear to any of the trim, panels or switchgear, with the leather retaining a wholly fresh appearance throughout.

Engine and Transmission
Our Boxster S is equipped with the 3.4 litre DFI flat six engine. The Boxster S engine produces 315bhp and 266ft-lb of torque. The axle load distribution of approximately 45:55 ensures high directional stability and superb road behaviour. The engine starts cleanly when cold or hot, there is no smoke whatsoever either at startup or when driving. There are no unusual sounds or rattles when the engine is running.

The 7-speed double-clutch PDK transmission system provides instant changes, unleashing the power of the engine with minimal fuss. It has two selectable modes, Normal and SPORT, both available with Full Manual Shifting. SPORT mode decreases shift times, holds gears for longer in automatic mode and downshifts sooner. It also makes the throttle more sensitive to your inputs.

This Boxster S is equipped with PASM switchable sports suspension system, which includes the dashboard switch that stiffens the suspension in an instant, increasing connection to the road. PASM equipped cars also sit 10mm lower than non PASM cars at all times.

This Boxster S is equipped with the rare and desirable optional Porsche Torque Vectoring PTV System. This optional system for increasing dynamic performance and stability varies the distribution of torque to the rear wheels and includes a mechanically locking rear differential. When the car is driven assertively into a corner, moderate brake pressure is applied to the inside rear wheel, inducing an additional rotational pulse (yaw movement) around the vehicle’s vertical axis. This results in a direct and sporty steering action as the car enters the corner. At low and medium vehicle speeds, PTV significantly increases agility and steering precision. At high speeds and when accelerating out of corners, the rear differential lock ensures greater driving stability and traction on a range of surface conditions, including the wet and snow. The results are remarkable stability, excellent traction, dynamic cornering at every speed, with precise steering and stable load transfer characteristics.

Wheels, Tyres and Brakes
Our Boxster S comes fitted with the 19-inch Boxster S II lightweight alloy wheels, which are finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic. They are unmarked, free of kerbing damage and corrosion. The brakes are phenomenal, with factory Guards Red callipers and PORSCHE lettering in white, cross drilled and vented discs front and rear with plenty of life left in them. The tyres are matching Porsche N1 rated Pirelli P-Zero high performance tyres, with lots of tread remaining
