Superb, nice one David! I suppose it would be a bit daft of me to ask if it goes well?

considering that it's 'just' the same engine as the 4S with two turbos strapped to it, I can't believe the difference in performance. Doesn't actually feel like a turbo, just a massive wall of torque right up to the red line. Seems to be more nimble too; don't know if thats the air suspension / PASM combination over the coils springs / PASM that the 4S had, but it is definitely different. Found a straight bit of road last night and had to execute launch control for the fun of it...queue lots of giggling ! will try and get some pics tonight |

Good stuff, I've heard that the air suspension is good with the PASM. Like the sport design kit too. |

Stunning from every angle and clearly practical judging by the timber tied to the roof rack.

Lovely car, had the pleasure of a 700mile round trip in a Turbo S truly epic cars. I love the fact you've used it with a roof rack, when I had my Cayenne carried my mountains bikes inside, there made to be used  The inside looks a nice a place to be too. Enjoy it. |

Jim - it's actually quicker than that with the sport chrono plus pack thats on the car gives an extra 70NM over boost if you boot it ! 0-60 comes up in under 4 seconds..... bike racks are ready and waiting for sunday
