Advice on buying used 2.7 03 plate

This is my first post so please bear with me.
I've had a couple of Boxsters over the years and am now looking to buy one for my wife.
Ideally looking for an 03 plate 2.7L with low mileage and FPSH.
Does anyone know of any for sale by club members ?
I've had a look at Pistonheads and Autotrader but thought it was worth a post on here also.
I'm looking to spend under £20k.
Is there a checklist of what to look out for ? (I recall that it was easy to slam the boot shut on tall objects and then realise that it dented the underside of the boot lid)

One other point, it would be a bonus if the car had the airbag disabling function for a child seat although my local OPC told me that this would cost £89 & VAT (& labour at approx. £100/hr !).
 
I think the rate you have been qouted is to fit the "de-activation". A bar which has a seat belt housing and sits under the passenger seat. Its used in conjunction which a porsche child seat. I dont think you can just de-activate the airbag. As it would then be de-activated for all passengers.. I think the bar is circa £200 which has to be fited by opc, child seat was £490 (OPC only).. Its pricey taking a child in a Boxster!


 
Thanks for the reply.
I've an SL500 at the moment and thought Merecedes were having a laugh charging £295 for a seat with a built in transponder to deactivate the passenger side airbag.
Looks like an MPV then ...
