1997 Porsche Boxster | Lytham St Anne's, Lancashire

A 1997 Porsche Boxster, the mid-engine roadster that helped revive Porsche's fortunes in the 1990s. It is liked for balanced rear-wheel-drive handling, with the flat-six engine sitting behind the seats. The name joins "boxer" and "speedster", a name Porsche had used on the 356. This car is blue with a cream interior, a pairing that lifts the cabin once the fabric roof is folded away. It has the 2.5-litre engine the model launched with. The two-seat cabin keeps attention on driver and passenger, and luggage space at both front and rear takes a change of clothes or a few props. With the roof down, the low open shape gives photography, fashion and editorial shoots a clear view of both occupants, and the blue and cream sit well together in frame. Its mid-engine proportions read well in advertising and music video work, where the car's profile counts. It also makes a neat wedding getaway for a couple. The car is based in Lancaster, Lancashire.
