Fabulous low mileage example of the second generation Porsche Cayman S 987.2 with the reliable Type 987 3.4 engine and desirable 6-speed manual gearbox offered for sale.
This 2011 Porsche Cayman S 987.2 in rare and sought after Aqua Blue Metallic paintwork was registered on the 3rd March 2011 changing hands for the first and only time in September 2012 for which we have the original bill of sale from Porsche Bristol (Dick Lovett).
First registered to Porsche GB, the second and only subsequent keeper acquired the car in September 2012 owning the car for the past 10 years during which time kept this lovely example serviced at Porsche Reading and Brooklands and maintained under Porsche Extended Warranty with all relevant 111-Point checks carried out at each renewal and OPC servicing carried out on-time and to schedule irrespective of mileage. The 111-Point inspections include engine over-rev checks etc.
The factory paint has been ceramic coated and the extended black leather interior is unmarked and fitted with shell back electric sports seats and leather dashboard and door panels.
Tyres are ‘N4’ Rated Michelin PS2 tyres fitted in 2019 (rear) and 2022 (front) with plenty of tread and life remaining on 18” Cayman S II alloy wheels (very small mark on one).
111-Point OPC Check at each 2 Year Porsche Extended Warranty renewal including engine over-rev checks and all service items, airbags, condition of underbody etc.
Just under 29000 miles are recorded backed up with a comprehensive and documented OPC service history.
All wallets, handbooks and booklets are present and both working remote keys.
The next service is due in 730 days or 19900 miles.
Service History:
With deliveries starting early 2009, the ‘Gen 2' 987 was installed with an all new Direct Fuel Injection (DFI) engine. Quality both inside and outside took a significant step forward with the Gen 2 models (2009MY onwards) and the all-new engine designed out the possibility of major engine issues that were sometimes seen in the earlier models. Externally, the 987.2 had an upgraded front bumper with LED running lights.
(The IMS bearing is not an issue on the 987, the cams are driven directly from the nose of the crankshaft. Alusil alloy was used for the crankcase (987.1 used the Lokasil method) and with 4 oil pick-ups from the cam covers (987.1 had 2). This virtually eliminated bore scoring problems. The leaky rear main oil seal (RMS) that blighted many of the 986 models was also largely resolved by the 987 models.)
In summary, the 987.1 was a good car, the 987.2 made it even better in almost every way.
There was also huge confidence from Porsche in the galvanised steel bodyshell, granting a 10-Year warranty against corrosion.
The Type 987 was a major redesign of the original, and very successful, Type 986 Boxster. With 8 years experience of what customers wanted, the new model had crisper, more contemporary looks and a significantly more pleasant interior that mirrored the new 997 model. There was more power and the best feature is the everyday driveability. Retaining the near ideal 47% front, 53% rear weight distribution, the mid-engined 2-seater offers spacious luggage areas both in the front and rear. The water cooled flat-6 engine delivers smooth, tractable power in a package that is complemented by class leading power assisted steering and brakes. For a more sporty drive, the manual gearbox as offered here wins out, the shift is crisp and precise and the steering feel is sublime.
Desirable options include 19-inch alloys, PSM, Park Assist, Heated Sports Seats and Cruise Control, all of which are fitted to this example.
A rare opportunity to acquire an exemplary example of this sought after model in desirable specification, full listing as below:
This Cayman S is equipped with the highly desired Porsche Switchable Exhaust (PSE) system, for a more sporty sound both on acceleration and lift off, fitted by respected Porsche specialist Northway using OEM parts, in June 2017.
