Description
Rare opportunity to buy a Porsche numbered car; one of only 1,960
made; two owners from new; 74,500 miles with 8 service stamps; advisory-free
MOT; a true collector's car that can be used daily
This car takes
its name from the Porsche Type 718 RS60 Spyder, the racer that Hans Herrmann and
Olivier Gendebien drove to outright victory in the 1960 12 Hours of Sebring. At
£45,400 new the RS60 carries a £5,500 premium over the standard Boxster S on
which it’s based, but it does come loaded with desirable extras and it’s limited
to a reasonably low-volume run of 1,960 examples, this car being number 1,946
makes it one of the last 20 to be registered.
The front end of this
special model is from Porsche’s SportDesign Package and distinguishes the RS60
Spyder significantly from the Boxster S. A modified sports exhaust system
combined with a dual tailpipe increases engine output to 303bhp. Spacer plates
move the 19-inch Porsche SportDesign wheels outwards to fill the wheelarches
nicely. Likewise featured as standard, Porsche Active Suspension Management
(PASM) ensures both sporting and comfortable driving pleasure at all
times.
Currently showing 74,483 miles, the paintwork here is GT Silver
Metallic contrasting nicely with the Carrera Red natural leather interior and
red soft top roof (the other option was dark grey natural leather in conjunction
with a black roof).
Two owners from new, our vendor acquired the car in
March 2015 and looking at the eight service stamps in the book, it seems to have
been looked after well by Porsche main dealers and specialists over the
years.
This is a great opportunity to buy a numbered car from Porsche,
entering you into a very special small group of lucky owners. The car drives as
it should and sounds out of this world thanks to the 6-cylinder 3.4 engine with
the sports switchable exhaust system found on the RS60s.
All handbooks
are present along with lots of invoices and a current MOT until February 2026
showing no advisories.
