The Cayman S comes fitted with the mid mounted 3.4 litre DFI flat six engine that produces 321bhp.

This car is also ULEZ compliant, so does not attract the daily emission charge in London.

“On the road, the new Porsche Cayman S is brilliant; smooth, responsive, fast, precise and always so absorbing. Guiding the Cayman from corner to corner is an immersive pleasure. There’s a little roll, but only at high effort levels, where it serves to remind you gently that you’re approaching the limits, exactly as a road car should. The car’s cornering balance is near-perfect: neutral but unerringly predictable on a balanced throttle, and biased ever so slightly towards understeer if you throttle up before you begin easing the lateral load out of the front tyres. The new Cayman S is a cutting-edge concoction of aluminium and hot-formed, high-strength steel and should be 30kg lighter than its predecessor, model for model. Crucially, it’s stiffer than the previous generation of Porsche Cayman, too, to the remarkable tune of 40 per cent.”

Background
The Porsche 981 is the internal designation given to the third-generation Porsche Cayman 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 Cayman 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 Cayman engines.
Exterior
Our hand selected Cayman S looks stunning in its metallic coat of Agate Grey. The striking 20-inch Carrera S lightweight alloy wheels finished in Satin Platinum with coloured Porsche crests are the perfect complement to the Agate Grey paintwork. All the trim has a perfect finish, as do the front and rear lights. The windows drop as they should when you open the door. The engine and boot struts also operate as they should.
Interior
The Cayman S comes with sports seats which are 2-way electric with height adjustment for driver and passenger. All of the black interior leathers are in excellent condition and provide a perfect pairing to the Agate Grey bodywork. The optional Red seat belts are a desirable addition to the interior. 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 Cayman S is equipped with the 3.4 litre DFI flat six engine. The Cayman S engine produces 320bhp and 273ft-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. The Cayman S can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds.
Our Cayman S is equipped with the highly desired Porsche Switchable Exhaust (PSE) system, which unleashes a more sporty sound both on acceleration and lift off. With SPORT mode enabled, the sound increases further, with pops and crackles when you lift off the throttle.
Wheels, Tyres and Brakes
Our Cayman comes fitted with the 20-inch Carrera S lightweight alloy wheels finished in Satin Platinum, which are unmarked, free of kerbing damage and corrosion. The brakes are phenomenal, cross drilled and vented discs front and rear. The tyres are matching Porsche N rated Pirelli P Zero high performance tyres with lots of tread remaining, we have just fitted brand new front tyres.
