Tech it away
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:

I find these Porsches a bit sad to be honest.

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'.

"I've got a modified Cayenne, and the best thing is that it's a diesel!". Utter awfulness. But the bodykit could be - and has been - worse. A lot.

Oh do come on TechArt, your Cayenne only managed to make 2 out of 10 children vomit upon seeing it. That's not as good as even the stock versions 3 out of 10! Do try harder next time!

There are alot of cars out there that are down right ugly. Just cover the badge of the car then really look at it from all angles, all sides. The Cayenne is no exception. I really didn't think much of it since here it's another SUV in the sea of a flooded market that everyone and their cousin's launched into here in the states. I never gave it a thought til the boys on TG mentioned the Cayenne being ugly, and they're right. You can only hide so much with cosmetics and some paint.

In no way a rival for the new ‘sporty’ breed of SUVs, and better for it. Beware speccing the big wheels, though.

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.
