Porsche Cayenne GTS 957

[Ruskie]

After 3 years I fancied a change from my F31 335d.

I had it mapped last year to 390bhp and 650 lb/ft making it a serious quick car. With it being lowered it was a tough ride on the roads round me, and ultimately I got sick of this on a daily basis. I wanted something a bit more comfortable.

Enter my first Porsche and my first V8. It’s a 2008 Porsche Cayenne GTS 4.8l V8 Petrol with 405bhp.





Here is a little sound clip I made of that glorious engine.

There are a couple of cayenne threads running now and it s clear they need upkeep. However, I got it for a good price and as per any 17 year old car, it has some niggles that need ironing out. I m looking forward to doing bits when I can. I originally wanted a black one but I knew it would drive me mad trying to keep it clean. I think the silver looks really clean and has aged well. I spent a good 5 hours cleaning the interior and getting it up to my standard.

Plans:
- Major service
- Replace number plates for clean ones
- Replace rear taillight that had condensation
- Full underside clean and rust proofing
- Full decontamination and machine polish
- New centre caps
- Transmission service
- Torque arm replacement
