Description
Porsche Cayenne Turbo (958.1) - Properly Maintained, Built to Last
Mileage: 149,850 (predominantly motorway)
MOT: September 2026 (no advisories)
ULEZ compliant
Road tax: ~50% of a 958.2 Turbo
This is a correctly maintained 958.1 Cayenne Turbo, owned by a Porsche collector/restorer and serviced with longevity as the priority. This is not a minimum-spend example. Most cars on the market have not been maintained to this level.
Engine, Gearbox & Drivetrain
Powered by Porsche's 4.8L twin-turbo V8 producing 500 BHP / 700 Nm an engine known to comfortably cover very high mileages when serviced properly.
Serviced with Petronas oil, widely regarded as one of the best oils for high-performance, high-mileage engines
Predominantly motorway use: fewer cold starts, lower wear
Turbos spool cleanly to factory boost
The 8-speed Tiptronic S is one of Porsche's most robust gearboxes. Smooth, fast, torque-tolerant, and correctly serviced (not "sealed for life").
Transfer Case (Critical Work Done)
Transfer case serviced September 2024
Front and rear differentials serviced at the same time
This is the most commonly neglected and most important service item on these cars. Doing it properly protects the AWD system, gearbox, and long-term reliability. With the work already completed, this drivetrain is realistically capable of another 100k miles.
Brakes, Suspension & Condition
Over 3,000 spent on braking:
New genuine Porsche front calipers
New discs and pads all round
New master cylinder
Multiple fluid bleeds by Elite Porsche
Adaptive air suspension and PDCC function correctly. Passed MOT with zero advisories.
Interior Quality (Old-School Porsche)
From an era when Porsche did not cut corners. Everything is leather:
Dashboard
Door cards
Centre console
Armrests
No modern hard plastics. Combined with Alcantara headlining, the cabin is quiet, solid, and exceptionally comfortable over long distances.
How It Drives
Despite its size, it drives closer to a sports car than an SUV:
Adaptive air suspension with PASM
PDCC active anti-roll control
Flat, composed, confidence-inspiring handling
Exceptionally comfortable and stable at motorway speeds exactly how this car has been used.
Specification & Value
18-way adaptive sport seats with memory
Heated front and rear seats
Bose surround sound (14 speakers / 710W)
Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
Bi-Xenon headlights with PDLS
Factory electric tow bar
Slick-top (no sunroof)
Original list price in 2012 exceeded 6 figure. It still delivers!
