How much did it cost to buy a Cayenne S?
At the end of another long day, we found this 2005 Cayenne S V8 with 96,000 miles and a couple of previous owners. After negotiation, we bought it for £6000; it needed a service, the rattly suspension sorted and a parcel shelf within that price.
Which is the best 2012 Porsche Cayenne to buy?
My current daily driver is a 2012 Porsche Cayenne Turbo, & it is the best car I’ve ever owned. The car’s performance is unmatched by any SUV in it’s class & the luxury features are done beautifully. I really like the air suspension, which is adjustable to raise or lower ride height.
Why did Mrs Ruppert buy a Porsche Cayenne?
Mrs Ruppert is small, fragrant and truly believes that size matters. The gargantuan SUV was designed with her in mind. She likes to see the road ahead and, unlike some motorists, can actually reverse slot and parallel park without drama. So it was natural to consider another used high-rise vehicle as a replacement.
Why is the Porsche Cayenne called the Flying Pig?
I call it the Flying Pig; my nickname is the only thing Mrs R doesn’t like about her new car. HISTORY – A Cayenne doesn’t require the specialist care that Porsche’s sports cars need, so might not have a full set of main dealer service stamps.

Is the 2012 Porsche Cayenne a good car?
Bought my 2012 Cayenne base from a Porsche dealer 1 year ago with 150000 miles on it. Was very nervous about the mileage, however, all dealer records were available, it was a one owner, and every single required service interval was documented with the Porsche dealer. After 12000 miles, I can honestly say it is the best vehicle I have ever owned.
What kind of air suspension does a Porsche Cayenne have?
Get the optional Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) air suspension system. You’ll get improved ride and handling, and it gives the Cayenne a more nimble personality. The 2012 Porsche Cayenne comes equipped to take on a rugged trail, the racetrack, and child ferrying, all in the same day.
Is there cargo space in the back of a Cayenne?
Cargo space in the rear is fine for us – it carries a few golf bags, etc. and has way more capacity than the Macan or Audi Q5. It also has slightly more space for cargo than the 2009 Lexus RX350 I’d had. One problem with the Cayenne is removing the retractable cargo cover shade entirely out of the bracket that holds it in place.
What kind of ECU does a Porsche Cayenne need?
It requires 93 octane like all Porsches, so if you live in an area where 91 octane is the highest available, the ECU will not nearly give you the acceleration performance that this car could give you. Reliability has been relatively poor. At 35K, it needed a driveline transfer case and controller as well as a sunroof controller.
