Pre-bids

2007 Porsche Cayman (987)

Highlights

  • Cobalt Blue exterior with Blue Leather interior
  • Retrofitted Sony CarPlay head unit with original Porsche unit included
  • New tyres, discs, and pads fitted in late 2023
  • MOT valid until March 2025

The Appeal

Often credited with bringing Porsche to the masses, the Cayman was a more affordable product for the legendary brand - but you shouldn't let that fool you. Free from the performance-led expectations of the 911, the 987 focused on being drivable and fun, a lightweight and more carefree car. A great all-round naturally-aspirated sports car with a manual transmission. What more do you need?

This fine Cobalt Blue example boasts an attractive matching leather cabin, and has covered an amicably low 89,188 miles from new. The vendor has clearly looked after this nifty little sports coupe, and is only selling as a two-seater is no longer practical for them. If you're after a solid, eminently drivable car, this is a great opportunity.
