Collecting it on Wednesday so will be sure to post pictures - I'm OCD and it's in ridiculously good condition.

I don't have an incredible social life due to long hour work over the past few years so it's a great incentive for me to take some beautiful trips across the country.

Always wanted to explore the nice parts of the UK, get out of the city and enjoy the drive and scenery.

Anyone know great suggestions to drive and I'll begin my list smile

If you suffer from OCD and have a limited social life you will fit in well here. Other pointers include to make sure your spelling and grammar are spot on, read the Daily Mail and rubbish all it says, claim your income to be at least 3 times what it is, be pro capital punishment, a bit of a tart woman wise and be able to speak for the nation on pretty much all topics.

Good choice. A proper bonkers machine is the Cayenne S.

The Turbo looks mental but just wouldn't have been feasible to use all day long..plus I am only 24 so I don't want to 'jump up too fast' so to speak. Also for my budget there wasn't a huge amount of Turbo's around.

I drove a 997 Turbo not so long ago and I was in complete awe of that. When the Turbo kicks in, it's like Need for Speed underground when you press the NOS button ha!

Insurance isn't that bad considering...it's x4 times the amount I pay on the 500, having said that it's x4 times the car!!

Handsome Bob, that's a good gangsta name. The big drug deal went through without a hitch then? wink

Hi and welcome,

They are a little greedy on tyres, (as in replacing every 10k miles or so).

Insurance coverage depth is different than legal requirement depth.

Welcome to PH... Cayenne is a great car. Probably the wise choice with the S.

I had a turbo for a year, which required very deep pockets!!
