Used supercars: buying a Porsche 996 Turbo

Used supercars: buying a Porsche 996 Turbo

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 21 March 2013 10:50

Performance bargain of the moment? Only the current glut of £7k E46 M3s can possibly stand between a £20k 996 Turbo and that accolade. Because this is an extraordinary amount of car for the money, the one supercar that doesn’t require ownership of another car in case the weather’s not right, or you’re too tired, or are worried about parking, or ...

Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (2013) CAR review

Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Georg Kacher, 22 January 2013 11:00

Wider rear wheelarches and a thin red light strip across the rump: that's all that distinguishes the new Porsche 911 Carrera 4S from its Carrera 2 stablemates. Time to find out if all-wheel drive makes the impressive 991 even better. What's different under the skin of the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S? The latest example of the four-wheel drive 911, this ...

Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) CAR review

Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 11 May 2012 09:31

The Porsche Panamera GTS makes all the right noises, feels almost as fast as a Panamera Turbo and is kitted out accordingly. If your budget does not stretch to the Turbo S, this is the Panamera to have. But beware - there is major facelift coming in spring 2013. Porsche Panamera GTS: the background Like the Mk1 Cayenne, the Panamera ...

Porsche Cayenne Diesel (2011) CAR review

Porsche Cayenne Diesel (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 16 August 2011 09:00

The Cayenne is the Porsche we all loved to hate. But is the Cayenne SUV now firmly accepted in the Porsche firmamentr? After all, most now understand the well worn argument that it funds the sports cars we all love. Porsche has built twice as many 4x4s as any other single model line so far this year, for crying out loud. So ...

Porsche Panamera Diesel (2011) CAR review

Porsche Panamera Diesel (2011) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 22 July 2011 09:40

Just a few months after launching the Panamera petrol hybrid, Porsche is serving up an alternative maximum efficiency GT: the Panamera Diesel. It can, says Porsche, cover 745 miles on its 80-litre tank. If you’ve got a capacious bladder, an optional 100-litre tank is set to be an option too. The Panamera Diesel goes on sale from August 2011, and, ...

Porsche Panamera V6 (2011) CAR review

Porsche Panamera V6 (2011) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 10 June 2011 09:00

Porsche's Panamera is the entry-level model in Porsche's five-door GT range. Fitted with a 3.6-litre V6 engine, the basic Panamera begs a significant question: without the massive performance or four-wheel drive, does the Panamera's four-seater practicality overwhelm the controversial looks? Read on for out test of the Porsche Panamera V6 to find out... Porsche Panamera V6: the Porsche family car? ...

Porsche 911 Sport Classic (2011) CAR review

Porsche 911 Sport Classic (2011) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 20 April 2011 09:30

Let’s clear one thing up right now before anyone makes a very incorrect assumption. Despite the presence of that evocative ducktail rear spoiler, retro Fuchs-style wheels and a bile-raising reference in the press material to the 911 Sport Classic being the grandson of the legendary 1973 Carrera RS 2.7, the two are distant cousins at best. The Carrera RS was ...

Porsche 911 Speedster (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Speedster (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 25 November 2010 12:45

This is Porsche’s new 911 Speedster, a limited-edition special that pays tribute to the original 356 Speedster. It’s also an open-top follow up to last year’s 911 Sport Classic, a 25th birthday present for Porsche Exclusive (the arm of Porsche that created the Sport Classic and Speedster) and a final hurrah for the current 997-generation 911. More powerful with a ...

Porsche 911 Turbo S (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Turbo S (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 11 May 2010 10:20

It’s a numbers game with the new Porsche 911 Turbo S. For an extra £17,309 (or £17,324 in you opt for the convertible) you get an extra 30bhp, 37lb ft and lots of standard items that would otherwise be extra on the ‘regular’ 493bhp Turbo. S stands for Sport and Porsche’s marketing team would have you believe this new S ...

Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 07 April 2010 10:30

Hmm. A straight set of four stars. Like getting all Bs in your GCSEs. You sure? You’re saying the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet is a good all-rounder, a Mr Safe-Hands, rather than at the edgy end of party-in-the-pants brilliance? Well, not quite. But read on. Really? The new Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet only gets four stars for performance? 0-62mph in ...
