I am looking at a new Porsche Cayenne S as they are RRS V6 money but better emissions (therefore car tax is lower) and they do 0 to 60 in under 6 seconds and top out at 160mph.

Plus the interior is really nice.

Am I mad??

In the stables:Mercedes CLK 230K Cab W208; BMW 318d; VW Golf (LHD) 1.6 SE in Spain:New RRS to come soon...

Anyone know what the Cayenne's off road ability is? Obviously not a patch on LR products but is it a totally fraudulant off roader?

oh, one of those - I thought you meant the pepper sounding sports car! My mate is considering the new diesel one.  If you see a bandwagon - it's too late.....

The Cayenne is very very good offroad, don't forget it is a Toureg under the fugly skin though so you might even save more buying a Toureg....................... in fact I think a VW dealer would welcome you with open arms as they don't seem to be selling too many these days even after a facelift I haven't seen many around. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

The 4.2 TD V8 version "borrowed" from Audi makes that particular one a bit of a weapon!!!!

I'd have the V10 TDi

i thought it was a 3.0 v6 diesel in the cayenne? i looked at these when i was buying the rrs, but space inside not the best and the nearest dealer is 50 miles away if any problems - the other thing is that they only have a 2 year warrenty!! they charge 1k extra for the third year.
i do like them, but plumped for the rrs instead MY10 TDV6 SE (debadged ), Santorini Black, Flappy paddles, Privacy Glass, 20" Stormers, Mudflaps!

Gone: a comprehensive list of imprezas and a Merc ML AMG

Touareg V10 is a mighty machine, but I cant get my head around Porsche selling a diesel, a hybrid maybe but diesel....... I mean think of a diesel Ferrari (ok they might sound like one before they break down ) just can be right.... RRS TDV8 HSE 2007- JAVA Black/Black interior,
