This car was delivered new in Germany although it was a C16 UK spec car. The current owner believes it to have been the right hand drive press/test car before being imported to the UK in 2006. There can be no doubt this is the pre-production Anniversary Boxster S Spyder which makes this a unique Porsche.

Offered in lovely all round condition with a few minor stone chips on the bonnet but nothing that warrants paint correction.
