911 & Porsche World Magazine

30 June 2023

ON TEST - The new V8-powered Cayenne S, a famous classic 911 Turbo, base-model 981 and 718 Caymans, plus we head Stateside and visit Porsche indie, Seacoast Specialist Cars. FOUR INTO SIX - In a battle of base models, we pitch a 981 Cayman 2.7 against a 718 Cayman 2.0, amounting to a normally aspirated 2.7-litre flat-six versus a turbocharged two-litre flat-four. Market behaviour and enthusiast wisdom says six is best, but is this really the case? TIME TRAVEL TURBO - This former 911 Turbo press car has been given a new lease of life following two years spent in the workshops of Porsche indie, Mike Champion Engineering. We head to Oxfordshire and get behind the wheel. THE BEST, DONE BETTER - The third-generation Cayenne has been treated to a mid-life update. One of the most altered models is the Cayenne S, now powered by a thumping V8. We take to the Alps and find out what this super-SUV is really made of.
