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’s based on the C63, but fettled at Mercedes-Benz’s Brooklands UK headquarters. Only 20 will be built in either saloon or estate spec, and we’re driving the estate.

BMW M5 (2008) CAR review

Ben Barry, 29 July 2008 13:05
