Hello all - New to TIPEC and thought it time to stand up and be counted...

Am driving a '53 cayenne S which I have had for over 2 years and 40k miles...

HI & welcome :wave:

How has the Cayenne been? I keep being tempted but scared by comments about very high maintenance costs :shock:

Welcome to the forum, how's the Cayenne been in all the snow and ice?

Hello :wave: You got a very quick car! Been blown off by one of those once or twice! :oops: Should be pretty good this weather with the right tyres.

Thanks for the welcome all..

The Cayenne is blooming marvellous in this weather - low ratio gearing meant the car will go just about anywear - most modern traction controls allow cars to accelerate in snow and on ice - I have found that the low ratio gears allow for a lot of control downhill on snow and ice.... slowly does it..

Maintenance costs can be a little sharp to swallow - am currently having the OPC 'v' Independant debate at the moment. The car has done 84k miles and continues to be a great drive.

Again thanks for the welcome
