Porsche 911 Carrera S (2012) riding with Rohrl

2.5

Tim Pollard, 22 September 2011 10:41

There's a special treat for Porschephiles in the new October 2011 issue of CAR Magazine: we've nabbed the first ride in the new 991-spec Porsche 911 - alongside rally ace Walter Rohrl. The new 911 is one of the highlights of 2012, and our European correspondent Georg Kacher spent two days riding shotgun with Rohrl around Alpine passes in the ...

Porsche Panamera Diesel (2011) CAR review

2.5

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 911 Speedster (2010) CAR review

2.5

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 Cayenne S Hybrid (2010) CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman, 03 September 2010 14:00

The Porsche Cayenne caused controversy when it was launched, angering Porschephiles who believed that the Stuttgart sports car company shouldn’t be building such monstrosities. Of course the looks didn’t help the Cayenne’s case with traditionalists, but since the Mk1 Cayenne went on sale it’s proved to be a cash cow for Porsche. Now there’s a new version of the big ...

Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet (2010) CAR review

2.5

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 ...

Porsche Cayenne D Techart Tech9 CAR review

2.5

Ben Barry, 24 August 2009 12:30

We’ve been ever-so-slightly underwhelmed by Porsche’s first diesel car, the Cayenne V6 diesel. With 3.0-litres, 237bhp and 405lb ft, its performance just doesn’t sparkle like a Porsche – even a diesel Porsche – should, and it looks a little dull too. Seems that Porsche tuners Techart feel the same way, and the firm is now offering a range of upgrades through UK ...

Porsche Cayenne V6 Diesel (2009) CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman, 24 February 2009 00:01

Porsche purists should look away now – this is the first drive of the company’s first-ever diesel production car. And it gets worse – the car in question isn’t a 911 with an oil-burning flat-six slung between the rear wheels. Rather, Porsche has fitted its first diesel engine – actually an Audi-derived unit in a (whisper it) vee-configuration – into ...

Porsche Boxster RS 60 Spyder (2008) CAR review

2.5

Ben Barry, 27 March 2008 09:52

Should Porsche dabble with special editions that raid its historical back catalogue? We've just driven the new Porsche Boxster RS 60 Spyder - the car that takes its name from the Porsche Type 718 RS 60 Spyder, the racer that Hans Herrmann and Olivier Gendebien drove to outright victory in the 1960 12 Hours of Sebring. At £45,400 the RS ...
