Month 8 running a Porsche Panamera GTS: shpuld you buy the diesel Panamera instead? The GTS isn’t faultless, but our only real criticism is its 22mpg thirst.

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Performance bargain of the moment? Only the current glut of £7k E46 M3s can possibly stand between a £20k 996 Turbo and that accolade.
