Used car deals of the week: Porsche Boxster, Toyota GR Yaris, Audi RS6 and more
In this week’s used car deals, we’ve sourced everything from a Porsche 718 GTS to an Audi RS6
Having a flick through the pages of any issue of evo magazine, or scrolling through evo.co.uk, is a risk for anyone with an itchy trigger finger when it comes to swapping in and out of cars. You see a story and the tiny voice in the back of your head whispers ‘I could see myself in something like that’. And so to the classifieds you go, which for most these days, are only the swipe of an app away.
Each week in used car deals we do exactly that, scouring through the classifieds to find the very best deals on the market. This week, we've found everything from a Porsche 718 GTS to a Toyota GR Yaris.
Audi RS6 (2014)
£28,495
The Audi RS6 has been getting a lot of attention from evo of late, what with the RS6 GT featuring on eCoty and, of course, the arrival of the latest RS6 Performance on Fast Fleet. Then we took a look back at the previous C7 generation last week and lo’, the classifieds beckoned. The prices these can be had for are mightily tempting. How does a £150k discount over the new RS6 GT sound?
This one isn’t exactly a distinctive spec in black, but for £28,495 here is a 552bhp super estate that’s probably got more muscle than 99 per cent of cars on the road. Take it to Germany and with the Dynamic Pack that raises the speed limiter, it’ll be good for 174mph on the Autobahn. If this example takes your fancy and that’s exactly what you want to do with it, consider the reason it’s at the price it is: the 86,000 miles on the odometer. Audis are built beautifully but these RS6s tend to be driven hard, so you’ll want to make sure it’s drum tight before undertaking any high-speed heroics.
Toyota GR Yaris (2022)
£30,500
With the changes in VED car tax rules that came into effect from April 1, the fabulous Toyota GR Yaris that recently featured in our hot hatch test, now costs £3300 to tax when you first buy one. That’s without the ‘expensive car supplement’. But we all remember when it wasn’t so expensive to buy a Yaris, both in terms of taxation and list price. The GR Yaris launched as a c/£30k car and with the new car launching at over £40k, those previous models look like a bit of a bargain now.
> Toyota GR Yaris 2025 review – the modern homologation special gets even better
Take this Circuit Pack example with 14,494 miles, which is available for £30,500. Yes, the new car increases power, performance and durability a tad, while adding the automatic option. But you can’t argue with the value that this represents by comparison. With the limited-slip differentials at both axles and the stiffer suspension, the Circuit Pack is the best version of the previous car.

Porsche 718 GTS 4.0 (2022)
£73,990
The arrival of an all-electric Porsche Boxster and Cayman is reportedly still imminent, in spite of whispers of Porsche getting cold feet. So we need to enjoy the 718s as they are – and they’ve been as they are for some time – while we still can. We’ve been refreshing our memories on the current lineup of Boxsters and that got us wondering about what they’re doing on the used market.
> Porsche 718 Boxster review – the benchmark convertible sports car
The peak of the breed, short of anything prepared by Porsche’s GT division, is of course the GTS 4.0. This 2022 example has just 8177 miles and is in tasteful Aventurine Green paired with a two-tone cognac interior. With its PDK gearbox, it’s probably a spec best suited to a driver of a certain age, but it beats the usual silver and black. The price is sturdy at £73,990 but that just goes to show, we really don’t want to let these howling six-cylinder sports cars go.

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio (2021)
£49,795
Not a day goes by that we don’t at least consider perusing the classifieds to look at what Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglios are doing value wise. Taking a look at the Giulia lineup for 2025 this week, gave us the perfect excuse. The new Giulia Intensa costs from £51,725, for which a very tidy used Giulia Quadrifoglio could also be yours.
> Alfa Romeo Giulia 2025 review – get one while you still can
Take this 2021 example, which is available for £49,795. Being a relatively late example, any issues the earlier cars had will have been ironed out. It features the supportive Sparco carbonshell bucket seats and has even been upgraded with GTAm suspension and TCU software. Having covered 27,000 miles, this is an example that’s been used rather than left to sit but has a full main dealer service history record meaning it should be in fine fettle and ready to be enjoyed.
McLaren 720S (2017)
£128,949
The McLaren 750S is one of the best supercars on the market in 2025, but if its £250,000 price tag is a little hard to stomach, a used 720S offers a lot of the same for over £100,000 less. Powered by an earlier variant of the same 4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 found in the new car, the 720S produces 710bhp (though this is said to be underrated by quite some margin) for a 2.9sec 0-62mph time and blistering 212mph top speed. It also combines McLaren’s trick hydraulically interlinked suspension with a rigid carbon tub to give it class-leading dynamics.
> Best supercars 2025 – our favourite show-stopping driving machines
A total of 30,500 miles and eight years since it left Woking, this MSO Helios Orange 720S is now up for sale. While its 2025 alternative will set you back a quarter of a million pounds, you’ll pay under £130,000 for this car – as far as performance for the money goes, you’re unlikely to do much better.

Aston Martin Vanquish (Mk2, 2014)
£65,970
The second-generation Aston Martin Vanquish remains one of the most elegant super GTs to hit our roads, and over a decade since its launch it’s not short on performance. The new car’s numbers are closer to those of a hypercar from not too long ago, but the glorious 6-litre naturally-aspirated V12 of the previous Vanquish still produces a respectable 568bhp for a 4.1sec 0-62mph time and 183mph top speed.
Starting from an eye-watering £350,000, the new Vanquish is out of reach for most, but its predecessor is now considerably more affordable should you have the stomach for its running costs. After 32,000 miles on the road, this Stratus white example is on the market for just under £66,000, well over £100,000 less than it was when new.

BMW M5 (G90, 2024)
£102,500
The new G90 M5 is divisive in more ways than one, but get behind the wheel and all becomes clear. It might be big, heavy and not technically as quick as the car that came before it, but it’s proven to be one of the best supersaloons on sale. A 717bhp total output comes from its plug-in hybrid 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 powertrain, helping to offset some of its 2435kg kerb weight.
> BMW M5 (G90) review – more power, more weight, same old M5 desirability?
The G90 is still a very new car, but even so, there are already deals to be had. With just 2546 miles on the clock this BMW Individual Frozen Deep Grey example is barely run-in, but it’s already available for a discount of over £30,000. Equipped with pricey matte paintwork, the uprated Bowers and Wilkins sound system and £19,500 Ultimate Pack, it’s far from short on options – the latter adds interior Alcantara, exterior carbonfibre and even carbon ceramic brakes.

Mazda MX-5 (ND, 2016)
£12,275
Having outperformed far more expensive and powerful machinery in eCoty 2024, there’s no doubt that the ND MX-5 is a performance car great. In its earlier form its 2-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder produced a modest 160bhp, but a low kerb weight, excellent gearbox and entertaining chassis make it more fun than some cars with two or three times its output.
> Performance Link Mazda MX-5 R300 review – an MX-5 with Honda VTEC power
A new MX-5 costs just under £30,000, and while that’s cheap relative to today’s £50,000+ hot hatches, a used example looks much more appealing. Having covered 40,970 miles in its nine years on the road, this 2016 car is on the market for just £12,275, and even comes finished in Mazda’s excellent Soul Red paint.

Bentley Continental GT V8 S (2014)
£43,950
Despite a push towards electrification and the introduction of numerous plug-in hybrids, it seems Bentley has no plans to ditch the V8 any time soon. That’s music to our ears, as some of the greatest driver’s cars to come from the marque have come with eight cylinders, including the previous-generation Continental GT V8 S we see here.
> Bentley has no plans to stop using V8s
You won’t get any change from £200,000 for a new car in 2025, but after just over 26,000 miles on Britain’s roads this deep black 2014 example is now on the market for £43,950, less than the price of a new Volkswagen Golf R. Better still, it has just two owners on its books, and being the S, it comes with a 521bhp output and plenty standard kit.

Audi RS4 Avant (2022)
£49,700
The B9 RS4 has met its end as Audi looks to refresh its entire lineup, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find great examples on the used market. It might not have the naturally-aspirated V8 of its predecessor, but it’s not short on output, with its modest 2.9-litre turbocharged V6 producing 444bhp for a 4.1sec 0-62mph time and 155mph top speed flat-out.
> Audi RS4 (B9, 2018 - 2024) review – target number one for the BMW M3 Touring
This ‘Progressive Red’ example has been on our roads for a good few years now, but even so, it’s covered just 8100 miles in that time. Despite its low mileage and single-owner status, it could be yours for under £50,000, around £20,000 less than it was new.

Toyota Supra (2021)
£47,950
The final and most potent iteration of the A90 Supra has been launched, but thanks to the zero emissions vehicles mandate it won’t make it to UK shores. Nevertheless, there are plenty of used examples now on the classifieds at a significant discount despite the increasing desirability of the model.
> New Toyota Supra on the way, A90 Final Edition not UK-bound
After only 10,500 miles on the road, this 3-litre straight-six model is now on the market for £47,950, and has just a single owner on its books to boot. Better still, it’s the Jarama Race Track Edition, giving it a few unique touches and that striking Horizon Blue paint.

Audi RS3 (2020)
£32,500
The Audi RS3 is a fine hot hatch, and while it might have been overshadowed by lighter, more conventional rivals in its early years, it offers a truly desirable package in 2025. Powered by a potent and characterful five-cylinder, it produces not far from 400bhp in its earlier forms to make it one of the quickest cars in its class.
> evo magazine latest issue – 332 on sale now
While it’s supremely capable on Britain’s roads thanks to its clever variable all-wheel drive system, it also happens to be a very usable car, making high mileage examples common. This tastefully optioned dark Tango Red example has covered a strong 61,075 miles in its five years on the road, but you get a strong discount as a result with its price at only £32,500.

Porsche 911 GT3 (991.2, 2017)
£124,700
The Porsche 911 GT3 has remained a constant in the performance car segment, offering evolutions of the same winning package ever since its 1999 launch. The 991.2-generation was as accomplished as any, with its 4-litre naturally-aspirated flat-six producing 500bhp and its chassis one of the best money can buy.
> Used Porsche 911 GT3 (992.1, 2021-2024): review, history, specs and buying guide
Thanks to the magic of depreciation, you don’t need quite as much money as you might have thought, either. After 12,500 miles on the road, this single-owner 2017 car is now on the market for £124,700, over £30,000 less than the new car.

BMW M2 Competition (F87, 2019)
£37,690
The F87 BMW M2 Competition lifted Munich’s sports coupe to a new level, with a true M-developed S55 straight-six and honed dynamics giving Porsche something to keep an eye on. An output of 404bhp makes it a potent offering even in 2025, and unlike most cars of this kind, it was available with a manual transmission.
> Used BMW M2 Competition (F87, 2018 - 2020) review – modern M car great for hot hatch money
This Hockenheim silver example is equipped with just that, comes with the uprated Harman/Kardon sound system, 19-inch diamond cut wheels and just 21,424 miles on the clock. Yours for £37,690, almost half the price of the 2025 equivalent.

Alpine A110 (2023)
£43,422
We’ve known it was coming for some time now, but Alpine has officially launched the final iterations of the A110 – one of the best sports cars of recent times and a tonic in a hybridised world, we’ll be sad to see it go. Thankfully it’s still on sale for a year or so, but with prices now starting from £55,160 for the entry-level car, a used example is a great way to go if you’re on a budget.
> A110 R 70 and A110 GTS will be the last petrol Alpines
For over £10,000 less than a new example, this single-owner, 6864-mile car is now up for sale on the Auto Express Marketplace, finished in white and with the desirable diamond-cut factory wheels. It won’t match the more potent S or R for performance, but its 252bhp output is still more than enough for excellent performance on Britain’s roads, with 0-62mph quoted at a respectable 4.5sec.

Honda Civic Type R GT (FK2, 2015)
£19,995
The FK2 Honda Civic Type R is one of the lesser loved of the lineup, but look past its awkward looks and it has all of the right ingredients for a fantastic hot hatch. Its 2-litre four-cylinder was the first turbocharged unit of the Type R lineup, and produced a strong 306bhp as a result to make it one of the most potent cars in its class at the time – pair that with its sharp chassis and you have yourself one excellent driver’s machine.
> Used Honda Civic Type R (FK2, 2015 - 2017) – the forgotten hardcore Focus RS rival
Type R prices tend to hold well given their desirability, and despite its looks, the FK2 is no different. Nevertheless, this relatively low, 56,000-mile car can still be had for just under £20,000, making it under half the price of the latest FL5 when new. We certainly wouldn’t say it’s half the car…
