Porsche dealers have started to sell the new Boxster Spyder, a lightweight soft top version of its mid-engined roadster.

The car is the third addition to the Boxster family and is priced from £46,387. Standard specification includes six-speed manual transmission, 19″ alloy wheels, manual two-piece hood, lowered sports chassis lowered, carbon fibre sports bucket seats and heat insulating glass.

Lighter

The model is 80kg lighter than the equivalent the Boxster S model making it the lightest model in the brand’s line-up. The main difference between the Boxster Spyder and its siblings is its manual roof rather than an electric folding one.

Power is supplied by a tuned version of Porsche’s 3.4-litre flat six boxer engine. Maximum output is 320 bhp, 10 bhp more than in the Boxster S.
