Value of 986 Boxster Porsche Service manual set

[Abe986S]

I have a 15 volume Boxster Porsche Service manual set. I have searched many forums looking for a value so that I can list them. Wondering if anyone has and idea of value?

 

Thanks,

Abe

Part of the value will be whether or not it has all the updates.

In the case of the 996 service manual there were 99 updates.

I know I have many updates but will have to check and see how many.

Sometime back, Sunset Porsche was selling several brand new 986 manual sets, with updates, for around $400.

There is a old set of the manuals circulating on CD. Your differentiation has to be that it is printed, updated, covers later years of the 986.

Thanks for the replies!

 

I have updates 2-10 and 12-36, the manuals only cover 986 not 987.

Some guy in England posted the set on his website a year ago, along with many other sets (e.g. E-type Jag).  However it was taken down, perhaps by threats from the copyright owners.  It is unclear how many here were able to download said manuals when they were available.

The trouble with the English site and the CDs is that they are '98 vintage without updates so as things changed or if you had a later year car (or if errors were in the original), they were less reliable/helpful. Better than nothing and a useful supplement to the other manuals that are out there but don't bet your car on them.
