The proud owner's probably a great fan of the styling of these two.

Or a div.

I don't mean it's turned into a Cayman - GayMen just rhymes with "Cayenne" - sort of!

Bet the driver was a podgy shaven headed bloke who live in a 4 bed executive house by nefarious means, there are a few round here like that.

Correct - go to the top of the class.

It is indeed a Cayenne - I have seen this modification set advertised for up to £175k on a new turbo!!!!!! The wheels alone must cost a fortune - 22in with 30 profile tyres. Lowered suspension.

I am assuming it is a turbo as it was debadged - it would seem daft to have the kit done on a base V6 - but you never know!

Just had a chance to check out the source. Bodykit and wheels cost 32,000 euros. If the turbo kit has also been done it is another 22,000 euros!!!

It's local to me, know the lad well. It does look crass.
Yes it's a turbo and had obscene amounts of money thrown at it. The owner is minted, more money than sense!
