I bought an original Porsche Cayenne S for under £2000! Cheap V8 or expensive mistake?!

I took a punt on this 20 year old Porsche Cayenne S 4.5 V8. Watch the video and see if it paid off.
SPOILER ALERT: I love this thing, I’m starting to think I should stash this away as an investment 🤔 What do you think, is the 1st gen Cayenne going to go up in value?

    Just picked up a 2003 Cayenne S with 260,000km (161,556 miles) for AU$3000 (GBP1584) so I did slightly better, considering that the average price here is far higher than the UK. It does have a few small issues (needs rear tyres, broken bonnet cable, old wrap needs to be removed, radiator expansion tank leaks) but I'm very pleased with the value. Thanks for the review, I know what to look forward to when I pick her up next week.

I say just keep on doing what you do best. I just brought a 2005 Cayenne Turbo, I think they really are under valued.

    If you plan to keep it see if it has had the plastic coolant pipes replaced, they will fail, the ones that sit between the V of the engine, it is a big job to change them, they can fail dramatically or if they leak gradually they can drip onto the torque converter over time and trash it. No air suspension on it is one less headache. They are awesome, love driving it

But so many have been horribly abused - this example to have survived in this condition 20 years on seemingly looks to have been loved and well treated for most of its life and I can see why you were drawn to it. There aren't a great number of good early Cayennes left - I can see it as a nice car for pottering around on a weekend.

    This is a nice car and at a bargain price. I have a pal, who, like myself, does a very minimal annual mileage and it's a great shame that the annual road tax for such vehicles is £600+. I only have a small turbo diesel hatchback, which is over £300 and his rarely used Jeep Grand Cherokee 2.7 crdi is in the aforementioned £600 bracket. For us both, it'd be better if fuel duty increased and road tax was scrapped altogether. Some chance ! Even electric cars are going to be clobbered now.

    I really don't understand this car. Happy motoring to whoever buys this bathtub on wheels.

    The Cayenne is similar to the early Boxsters. A lot of people who have never driven one badmouth them. Never heard anyone who had driven one say much bad about them. That's why I bought a 2000 Boxster S for a weekend toy. I love it. Go drive a Turbocharged Cayenne and get back to us. I'm researching early Cayennes now. I plan on getting one in the next year.

    Certainly well worth the circa 2k paid. Decent condition for sure.
