Full leather interior including dashboard, door cards and suede headlining
THE APPEAL
With the original Cayenne facing criticism from some Porsche purists for not being fast enough, the German manufacturer decided to up its game for the 2007 Model Year, introducing a new 495bhp 4.8-litre turbocharged V8 at the top of the model range.
Priced at almost £100,000 before you even went near the options list, the Cayenne 4.8 T was an exclusive and very expensive car, sold in limited numbers despite being by far the best iteration of the performance SUV.
Today, it’s sought after as a used car or modern classic, with those in the know appreciating its masterful engineering and jaw-dropping power.
The vendors wife has decreed that he has to get something more sensible for the school run, so it’s reluctantly offered for sale. A well-maintained car with a Porsche service history, it’s supremely well-equipped with lots of personalised options. It was clearly over £100k new – but now it can be yours for a fraction of that.

NO RESERVE - 2007 Porsche Cayenne 4.8 Turbo
About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
