Description
Reluctantly selling my "full-fat" V8 Panamera GTS, which I've owned for the last six years. Before me it had just one former keeper.
I originally bought it as a luxurious and practical replacement for my 911, and it has proved to be exactly that. It's a genuinely luxurious car with comfortable seating for four adults and a large hatchback boot. But when you put your foot down and the naturally aspirated 4.8-litre, 430bhp V8 rumbles into life, you can't help but grin.
The car has been very well looked after throughout my ownership and has a full service history from Porsche main dealers and Porsche specialists.
Recent work includes:
PDK gearbox service
New gearbox cooler
New air suspension valve block
New air suspension compressor
It is currently fitted with a good set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres, with approximately 4mm tread on the front and 6mm on the rear.
The paintwork is in very good condition for the age and mileage. I've always dealt with minor defects when necessary, and the front bumper and bonnet were recently professionally resprayed to address a bumper scuff and stone chips. It has also just had a machine polish and ceramic coating, so it is looking particularly good.
Interior & Specification
The interior is in excellent condition, with perforated heated and ventilated electric leather seats, extended leather to the dashboard and Alcantara headlining.
It has Porsche's legendary PDK gearbox, which changes gear quicker than you can think and is considerably cleverer than I am!
The car also has the highly desirable Burmester surround sound system, a £3,000 option when new, along with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and the original Porsche sat-nav and infotainment system.
Other specification includes:
Front & rear parking sensors
Reversing camera
Two-zone climate control
Switchable sports exhaust
Heated & ventilated electric seats
Burmester surround sound
Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
PDK gearbox
4 wheel drive
MOT until September 2027.
This is a car I've genuinely enjoyed owning and I'm only selling reluctantly. It offers a fantastic combination of luxury, practicality and proper Porsche performance, with the added appeal of that wonderful naturally aspirated V8.
A great car for someone who wants a Panamera that still feels like a proper Porsche.
