Tech it away

German tuners add some bling to Porsche’s diesel Cayenne…

TechArt's Porsche Cayenne

Porsche Cayenne diesel a bit too dull for you? Then you need one of these - a TechArt version, tuned to nearly 300bhp and 464lb ft. That's 60bhp and 60lb ft more than usual, dropping the 0-60 time from 8.3secs to 7.7.
 
And of course, it wouldn't be a tuner special without a bodykit. It's been slammed and smoothed and rides on a set of 21-inch rims, giving rappers lots to talk about. Inside you can spec lots of plushness, from the mats to the door inserts and other bespoke bits and pieces from TechArt's coachworks in Germany. 

And the best bit? Despite all the bling, you can keep your clean conscience - the Cayenne's C02 figures are unchanged at 244g/km. All for a very reasonable £55,500, through the company's UK arm Tech9 Motorsport.
 
So there you have it, Cayenne diesel. You've been pimped.

Now watch Richard race a Cayenne against a British Army parachuter:

You marry a supermodel shaped girl and then she gets fat. Same thing here. Nobody has actually bought a Cayenne. They all bought 911s and then the car got fat.

As far as all the tuning jobs go, this one looks the best. Then again, that is like going to the Womens Institute to find the 'best looking one'.
