Car for sale
2005 Porsche Boxster for sale $30000, or near offer.
One owner from new.
Carrara white paintwork / Blue Metropole hood and interior
Alcantata / vinyl seats
Standard specification 2.7 L.
Only additions are 6 CD disc changer and Perspex wind deflector
Bought new by myself in UK, in April 2005, and brought to NZ when we emigrated here in 2014
Always stored under cover. Never been raced or used on a track. Completed the Hawkes Bay Targa 3 years ago with no problems.
Full service history, either Porsche dealer or specialist. All documents available. Next service due 2023.
Probably the most genuine original example of a Boxster of its age in NZ.
Most reliable combination of 2.7l engine and manual 5 speed gearbox.
In very good condition with only some marks caused by seatbelts on centre console and a few stone chips.
Original clutch and IMS bearing not showing any leaks.
Ideal car for summer nights and holidays. Only reason for selling is we have gone electric and the Boxster is not being used enough!

And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
