This seems to be the theme for this year, "unexpected". I've casually been"looking" at potentially getting a practical SUV that I could potentially use as a daily seeing that I sold the ST, as well as take it on some adventurous weekends away, or some off-roading day trips. When I say looking, every now and then I'll scroll Autotrader/Marketplace/Gumtree and not really expect anything cool to come up.
Then last week Tuesday, I got up, made myself some coffee, and started scrolling through Autotrader. The Cayenne popped up, and the price seemed too good to be true to be honest. I had never really considered a Cayenne before, but I was intrigued. Sent the ad to my mate at Porsche Center, who also owns an E1 Cayenne that he absolutely loves. Told me it looked like a great car, and I should immediately give it a look. So that's what I did.
Went through to the dealership and of course, they had gotten loads of inquiries, with only one other person having seen the car in person. Had a look at it, took it for a drive, double checked the full service history and I was completely sold. Shook hands with the salesman, asked him if he needed a holding deposit as I know there was a lot of interest and he said no, we shook hands, the car is yours, that's how I do business. AMAZING service from them through the process of buying the car.
They did all the paperwork and the roadworthy, I sorted out payment and collected the car on Thursday afternoon. I am blown away by how great this thing is, my word. And the fiance loves it which is a bonus š I can see her stealing it on the days I work from home.
And what better way to put it through its paces than going on a weekend away into the mountains, got back yesterday afternoon and I really do love this thing. It is so so SO good, the air suspension paired with low range and locking diffs is a game changer to make off-roading a breeze! The spec is really good too, xenons, extended leather, heated sport seats, heated steering wheel, thermally insulated glass, everything. Super stoked with my purchase.
Enjoy the pics
