Default Taking delivery of my 958 Cayenne S 4.2 V8

Next saturday to add to my 1994 968 Sport i'm taking delivery of a new to me (nearly 3 years old) Cayenne.

The spec is fantastic, the car new had nearly £30k ($40,000 USD) of options.

Think the guy added everything bar tow bar (which I wish he had to carry my bikes), really looking forward to getting it. Trading in my Land Rover Discovery which has served me well.

Ummm... if it's a V8, it's 4.8L, at least in the US.

Yes, ..and it is most probably the BEST engine to have in a vehicle like the Cayenne.
Real too bad that we cannot have it in the USA !
(For info, the same this engine on the European Panamera can offer more than 40 MPG !!!
..with more than 400 hp and a fabulous torque)

And when it's time for DPF service or one of the injectors goes bad after 100k kms, all the magic is all of a sudden lost ;-)

Apology, yes i'm in the UK and yes it's a 4.2 V8 Diesel. Think it has 385bhp as standard but very easy to add 60 to that figure.

Don't like the sound of DBF and injectors!
