Are you trying to say Joel is getting fat ?
Agree 😂
Don't be ridiculous.
Exactly my thought! 😂
He’s progressing on to that level very quickly
I bought a used fully loaded 2003 Cayenne S in 2004 from Porsche Silverstone and sold it in 2009 due financial crisis. It performed brilliantly in 1 meter of snow & ice in Highland Perthshire -15C. I was rescuing the local local postman and delivery drivers regularly so a lot of fun. It suffered from brake fade if I drove it hard on the hills though. I even carried a chain saw in the back with protective equipment as we ofter had tress down blocking local rural roads. A few years ago I bought another 2003 Cayenne S silver with grey interior which I have today (4th owner). It's just topped 102,000 and I done 45,000 of those miles. It cost me £6K. I get around 22 mpg average milage and its well looked after. Just had new windscreen fitted (insurance) front discs, pads, and new tyres. I also got a set of winter rims and tyres with the car and spares! All in all I just love it! I've been driving Porsche since I was 16, first was a Porsche 911L sportomatic along the farm lanes of Hampshire before I had a license. When I look back at my 356 and then 911 days, 20 mpg was around average for a 911 on webers so my Cayenne at 2,400 kgs empty returning 22 mpg is brilliant.
Can anyone smell that bull
I now owned an 05 Cayenne v6 for almost a year. I can’t recommend it enough. It’s been an absolutely brilliant and reliable car
Nooo dont tell them we gotta keep the prices low, i cant afford one yet
When considering a purchase, it is advisable to opt for a 2015 model or newer to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Older models may incur higher maintenance costs, while newer models offer advanced technology and increased dependability.
I've got a 957 v6 for sale !!
I find buy blind hope for the best. Limited or no service history and odd tyres or walk away
Literally 😢 every toy I look @😢😢😢
"Take them to the Peugeot dealer, because they clearly belong there" 😂😂😂
I love the sound! Bucket list car now the V6 955 Cayenne! Great video Joel! 😃
Bought mine early December had 20 like yours put 18 on it with Michelin cross climates on so impressed far better ride and reduced noise with great handling 👍
Cross climates are what I’ve gone for with the 18s given the time of year, so that’s great to hear they’ve been good with you! Video soon…
Iv been waiting for you too do a new video on the Porsche, your channel does really well with the Porsche content. ❤
More to come!
Keep them coming mate trust it will only do you good, Iv got a few mods Iv yet to go pick up but already purchased.
Love the Cayenne videos, keep them coming. I’m 11 months into my Cayenne S 955 4.5 V8 ownership. I love it, such a great car for the 3k purchase price! Fuel economy is bad but after a few months it just becomes normal 😅… 18mpg!!!😮
Yep who cares its 18 mpg...it was a 3k car.... and what a lot of car !
@@robinpelletstovesuk9194 fully agree
Another great vid Joel. Pls keep 'em coming.
Completely agree with your view on costs. Sadly too many people want a newer car to signal their status! Sad but true. This sort of thing is sooo much more fun and interesting
I do think the first gen Cayenne wasn't appreciated because "That is not a Porsche" but what people didn't realise who much Porsche wanted into the SUV pie. So they really did want to make an impression. I am so impressed that VR6 can perform that well in that vehicle, and as always sounds so off beat. Great to see these older versions out and about, while new ones are now just a fashion statement, like the Range Rovers, I bet their owners have or want a Tesla too. I look forward to further updates on this adventure...
I owned a cayenne S last year, was an absolute monster but because it was so fast for a 4x4 is was all to tempting to get my toe down at evry opportunity. £200 a month on petrol and i didn't even use it for work! It had to go.
I loved my 600hp Cayenne. So fast. 16 years ago it must have been literally shocking. It’s gone as of last week as the 60 mile round trip to my son’s new house basically became financial suicide! 12mpg is a tough daily. I did my roof struts for the boot opener……A very fiddly job! A lovely design to hide the struts in the roof but not friendly to replace! I look forward to your video on them. They were cheapest on Amazon funnily enough. Enjoy the car 😊
Great video Joel! Really enjoyed your humour 😆
Glad to hear it!
These early Cayenne's are how the 924/944 used to be....I mean they are mostly in the hands of people who use and abuse them and spend naff all on taking care of them.
Tailgate struts are usually cheap and easy for DIY repair. Google the reference number for purchase options. Usually just a couple of circlips to remove 🤞
Great video Joel, well edited too!
Great video joel I think to say your happy with your porsche is an understatement enjoy mate look forward to the next video
Maintenance is definitely a must I have an 05 Disco 3 which I love and keeping up with the garage stuff is well worth it as I now have one of the best on the road .
Quality of the videos are getting better and better. Keep it up 👍
There used to be someone in my village who owned one purely for prestige. They had two children, so it suffered quite a bit of abuse and was rarely cleaned either inside or out. It ended up at my local garage, having failed the MOT in what I nicknamed 'Rotten Row' where all the failures due for scrapping were left prior to their final journey to the scrap heap. Such a shame. 😢
Your best video for a while, keep them coming!
On the early ones watch out for bore score, it dident affect the 6cylinder but did affect the 4.5 V8 which was why porsche dealers and specalist's dropped them. same with the coolant pipes at the top of the engine, and watch out for a slow starting engine, the starter motor is on the top of the engine (on the 4.8L anyway) at the back and is difficult to replace, cheap if you do it your self (which i did) but 2k + at a dealer.
But they do handel unbelivably well🙂 and sound great.
More cayenne content is needed from this iconic beauty 🤩
Really enjoying your videos mate. I find them perfect for noobs like me, not too technical, and you even seem to have the same problems with stuff I'd imagine I would have. The only problem with your vids is they are just not posted often enough
Love my Touareg, for me it’s better than the Cayenne for it’s comfier suspension.
Strongly recommend both of them, each one has their own special place.
By the way, the VR6 is a beast. Not the best performance, but the sound and overall quality… quite brilliant!
Yep, its a tradeoff between them.
for a non air suspension variant this cayenne has decent ground clearence!
Welcome to Wendover Woods Joel, thanks for another cracking vid!
I really really like that car, Great content Joel.
Thanks so much
Absolutely brilliant, wittiest intro ever🤣👌👍
Love my Ford S-Max with 200HP. She is a low-profile sleeper GTi with enough storage ...and sensible repairs or mpg.
Great video, great channel as always!
Love the car. Great versatility. And confortable.
ahhh so I just finished watching your L322 or Cayenne video. I guess you went 955. In NZ, there isn't much between 955 and 957. My mate just scored a 2009 GTS. Its soooo good. Proper car, so stable, so good sounding, it looks impressive, great badge, but it really is very impressive on the road, you don't need any more than that. I am going to get one. They are very well priced here...petrol is over $3.00/litre... that doesn't help, diesel is much cheaper, but if you are looking at a 4.4 tdv8...then it's closing ranks for sure. But Porsche reliability I think wins it.
Got the same one but V8 S 👍🏻
Great video. Well done Joel
most reliable vehicle! I AGREE ON THAT
Pick up my Cayenne 08 plate on Friday can’t wait first Porsche
Throw some yellow Bilsteins on there and the ride will be much smoother! I have had 3 Touaregs, V10, V8 and V6. The V8 was the best engine, the V6 was by far the best handling! It now has yellow Bilstein shocks and rides buttery smooth, it is fantastic!
Afternoon Joel ! could you bring a Jaguar on the screen at some point , huge of an XJ , currently drive a XF 3.0d . loving the series so far .
The "24 Hours in the Cayenne" special will be very comfi for you Joel 😁!
Wooow, shots fired. 5:10 feel like a direct dig at me. 😂😂
Great channel mate ,can I ask you what make the after market stereo/headunit is 👍
2 months, and i haven't seen anyone talking about him running over his neighbors cat.....again.
Very good Joel, very good.
Good content Joel! Love the car, might get one meself! 😉
Nice vid Joel, hope the neighbours cat didn’t suffer too much 🤭, I’m really liking the Cayenne vids, could be tempted to sell my XC60…….or maybe not ?
One thing you’ll miss is comfort. But the car is brilliant!
My 987 Boxter also has a plate that starts AE05, similar spec to this aswell. Maybe they came from the same dealership. Cool car would love to get a cayenne someday.
This was a splendid review, would you recommend this for 1st time buyers?
Joel I am surprised how you have taken to the porker before every second sentence started with L322 😂 you must have forgotten that turncoat.😂😂
Please keep This 955 update 🎉
Brave attempt to try and justify it to yourself, but nothing could make up for having to look at that hideous munter on your drive every day 😂
You do understand that this is essentially a VW Touareg (partially on steroids) with multiple matching parts even :)
Joel is very good UA-camr and very handsome man
This is making me miss my Cayenne. Which is in the garage for a potentially fatal issue. 😢
Yea..i was thinking of changing my old x5...not bad but not too comfy on long journeys
Cheers matey
Great content & give it a gearbox service as it’s probably due 👍
Great vid Jeol you are convincing me to purchase one 😂
I just went out and bought an 06 3.2 V6 based on your recommendation, Lets see how the first month goes! Oh and it was cheaper than yours 😊
Over 22 years I've owned the range and can honestly say my 911- 991.2 is outstandingly the best. However my 2008 Cayenne (went to Mayrhofen skiing) was I thought brilliant - then in 2015 with BMW's in between I went back to Porsche via a Macan. Oh so much better, so in my opinion and for my situation I'd go Macan over Cayenne any day. Each to their own.😄
Note: my local Porsche dealership (Tewkesbury) let me have a Taycan for a long weekend while the Panamera I had at that time was being prepared - don't touch 'em!!
Great video and can see you love it. 👍👍👍👍😊
Is it basically a lifted Golf R32?
i forgot porsche used the vr6 motor, i LOVE those things. is the 3.6l the vr6 aswell?
Would you like to try my Cayenne S with all the bells and whistles? 2005 originally from Oz.
I’ve had pretty much everything , mercs Beemers Range Rovers , but nothing drives like my Cayenne , be it only a couple of yrs old .
I think it impossible to buy. The same SQ7
Been looking for months and you just can't find them.
Love the cayenne Joel !!! Hopefully you will become bored of it and I can buy it! (Or do a deal with my xf!)
What have you done to that good sounding exhaust?
Glad you got the Cayenne, nice video✌️
Thanks! 👍
18" wheels! The 20" look lost in those arches. The 18" will look minute. Looking forward to the video👍
👍 🚙 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The 18 inch wheels will ruin the steering feel and responsiveness and only marginally improve the ride quality.
Porsche is one of the more reliable European brands
The 3.2 VR6 engine is notorious for needing a timing chain replacement around 100k miles.
It’s not a dog guard it’s a luggage net!! 😂
Can you tow a caravan with it
Rather that than a ranger rover any day 😅😅
Would you consider a set of spax adjustable shocks or are they too expensive?
I never got on with SPAX.... choppy ride and not good. I would go with KONI
@@robinpelletstovesuk9194 yes koni good choice
Looks like you got lucky with a well cared for example, but there are far too many horror stories online and on pistonheads to really lure the average person into a Cayenne 1st gen.
A lot of what you've said I disagree with. Regarding maintenance, you're most likely to get big bills when it comes to the work in one go with the older cars.
The buttons on the steering wheel to changing gears in any Porsche is an awful idea and many people will retro fit the flappy paddles from Mercedes on Boxsters for example.
You've tried hard to be positive about what is pretty much one of the worst cars Porsche made.
V8 sounds better and not much more fuel consumption, especially if you are flooring the V6! The air suspended cars are S M O O T H!
The air suspension doesn’t really change the car’s stiffness. Even tho it changes the way it drives, doesn’t get comfier. Including the new Cayenne, might very well be the worst car in comfort on its category! The RSQ8 also suffers the same.
The V8 is thirsty like a thirsty camel. I had one and if you really floor the car you are at under 5 mpg.
@@ogearhead2426 I would say its softer in its softest setting for the dampers... Are you sure you compared like for like if you dont think so?
@@GoldenCroc my reference for comfort is Range Rovers and Volvos, I do also believe that the Touareg is much more comfortable, but the Cayenne… nah, it’s really stiff.
I didn’t meant to say that there’s no difference between the Cayenne with air ride and the one without it, but I don’t think it’s comfortable with it either.
For me, it doesn’t change the stiffness, just change the way we feel it. Is it understandable? 😂
@@ogearhead2426 Ok, as it was written it seemed like you meant 955 with vs without air suspension. I would say with is softer for sure, if you use "high" mode which is taller than steel sprimg stock, thats more like "low" mode on air. Dont forget you can adjust damper hardness as well. Not night and day, but difference is there on "high" with "comfort" damper setting. Other cars can be much softer still, yes. Cayenne 955/957 is certainly a firm base setup compared to most SUV of its time.
They were never any good apart from the vw engine, just look at how many are for sale as spares or repair
Is Joel about to become a dad?
Poor cat(s) 😮
Errrr, inevitable repairs. I would expect a full maintenance history to make sure the previous owner did not cheap out. I have seen some at the local specialist getting some heavy work done. Though at under £4k, that leaves some room for the maintenance. I'd push a little extra to get the S, 200 more BHP has near double the power, and will get double with a decent remap...
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Stop wearing your glasses on your head like that. It’s just going to get grease on the glasses from your hair and your big a** head will distort the shape of them compared to how it should normally sit
Unless you earn £200k a year forget it. Get real ???
Why would you need to earn 200k to spend a couple of grand a year on a car…
Strange comment!
How much content can you squeeze out of one car review?
1st
That's not as VR6. It's a normal V6
No it’s a VAG VR6 engine.
Watch the previous video
Nah yeah. Same VR6 from Touareg, Golf and Passat.
AVOID. BUY FIAT 500X DIESEL . HONESTLY. YOU LOVE MOTORING AND PEOPLE.
Not a chance in the world i would own one.
