Porsche Boxster 1997
Specifications
Description
Porsche's attempt to move away from its traditional roots with a range of front-engined sports cars in the 1980s proved disastrous. It wasn't that the cars were bad, it's simply that die-hard Porsche fans refused to accept anything other than a car with a rear-mounted air-cooled ‘boxer' engine and sales of the front-engined cars didn't get off the ground. With that sort of background the arrival of the Boxster in 1997 was a much anticipated event.

Porsches are generally one of the most bulletproof cars on the road. Many are kept locked away in garages during the week and only brought out on sunny days, but there are also plenty that are used day in day out as round town transport.
Porsches are easily the user-friendliest sports cars on the market. They are just as happy to trundle along in everyday traffic, as they are the blast along an open road at warp speed.
They also give very little trouble. There are plenty of old Porsches on the road with 200,000-plus kilometres showing on the odometer, I've even seen a mid-1990s 911 with more than 300,000 km clocked up. The bottom line is that Porsche are built to last, and they do that with admirable reliability.
Will be sold WOF'd and Registered.

NOTIFICATION AS TO NATURE OF GOODS IN TERMS OF THE CONSUMER GUARANTEES ACT 1993
Waimak Classic Cars Ltd is a New Zealand registered company and accepts that the vehicle being sold must be of “acceptable quality” in terms of section 7 of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (the Act) having regard to “the nature of the goods”.
Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.
The Purchaser is encouraged to personally fully inspect the vehicle and also to have the vehicle inspected, and fully assessed by an experienced, independent, specialist garage - before committing to purchase. While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.
The Purchaser acknowledges that they have read and fully understand this notification and the nature of a car which is many years old.
