I'm trying to locate my beloved old Boxster.

It's an all original 1997 arctic silver tiptronic. Car is featured here: http://www.radiocafe.co.uk/zold/def_pp4.htm - this was way back in 2005 so you can see how much I loved the car.

If you know this car or its whereabouts, I would be so delighted if you could pass on any info.

It was sold through the fantastic PorschaCare/Renn Works* in Stevenage in Feb 2022, having been with them for a while before. I sold it while going through a really tough time as a result of serious illness and bereavement - but I never should have done so as I always planned on keeping the car forever.

I'd love to find out if the new owner might possibly sell the car back. It's long shot - but I guess you never know.

Many thanks

*I highly recommend Renn Works, having used a couple of indies in London previously who were a total nightmare. Matt @ PorschaCare couldn't have been kinder, what a top bloke; he gave my car the very best treatment since 2015.

Might be worth trying the popular Boxster forum - boxa.net
 
It's not done any miles for the last 5 years. MOT is due next week. Might be worth checking if it gets MOT'd and if any miles have been put on it.

Great advice Alex. Yes most of those years of piddly mileage were under my tenure. One of the reasons I convinced myself to let the car go. New buyer seemed to continue that trend, last year at least. Good news is it seems it’s not being used as a taxi!
