2024 Porsche Cayenne S

This 2024-registered Cayenne is the V8-powered S variant, pairing a 4.0-litre twin-turbo petrol engine with 468 bhp and 601 lb-ft of torque, driven through an eight-speed Tiptronic S gearbox and Porsche's four-wheel-drive system. It's quoted at 170 mph flat out, and sits at the sporting end of the Cayenne range without tipping into Turbo territory.

The spec is well loaded with chassis hardware that matters: adaptive air suspension with PASM, rear axle steering, and Power Steering Plus, plus a Sports Exhaust with dark tailpipes. Quartzite Grey paint is paired with 21-inch Cayenne Exclusive Design wheels in Vesuvius Grey, the SportDesign Package and Extended Exterior Pack in black, and tinted HD-Matrix LED headlights and taillights with a light strip. Inside, two-tone leather, 18-way adaptive sports seats, a heated multifunction wheel with shift paddles, and a Burmester 3D surround system make up the cabin.

With 18,031 miles on the clock, it has covered a modest distance for its age. Practical extras include a panoramic roof, head-up display, adaptive cruise control, lane change assist, Comfort Access, a heated windscreen and an electrically extending towbar, which adds towing capability to the performance on offer.
