Porsche Panamera

The base-spec 2024 Panamera is the least talked-about way into Porsche's executive saloon range, and arguably the most sensible. Powered by a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 producing 348 bhp, it covers the 0-60 sprint in five seconds flat while sitting at a meaningful discount to the 4S and Turbo variants — and the chassis and interior quality are identical throughout the range.

This example has covered just 13,289 miles and is well above average specification. The Sport Chrono Package is fitted, as are 21-inch Panamera Exclusive Design alloys, a panoramic roof, and Comfort Access keyless entry. Inside, the front seats are 14-way electrically adjustable with a memory package, and the rear uses the 4+1 individual seat arrangement — a more considered layout than the standard bench. The BOSE surround sound system, four-zone climate control, passenger display, and soft-close doors complete an interior that would be at home in a flagship luxury saloon.

Finished in black with privacy glass and silver sports tailpipes, the exterior cuts a clean, low-key profile that suits the Panamera's dual identity as both a driver's car and a long-distance GT. Lane Change Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control are also fitted, making this a genuinely comprehensive specification.
