The 2015 Porsche Boxster is a genuinely reliable car, with a 94.4% first-time pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%—and the 13.7% dangerous defect rate, while present, isn't alarming for a sports car of this age. You're looking at a vehicle that rarely needs major corrective work, averaging just 0.51 failures per test.
These Boxsters are showing surprisingly low mileage for their age at a median of just under 25,000 miles, suggesting many have been cherished weekend cars rather than daily commuters, which tracks with typical Boxster ownership.

The 2015 Porsche Boxster passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (94.6% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
