Great car and the new 300bhp diesel is an absolute animal, great second hand buy and its a Porsche, i'd have it over any bland Euro-Box Beemer Audi blah blah...

[@DodgeCity111]

That's a very questionable review

[@eugeneskrebanov9225]

Totally agree

[@dayglofreak81]

They're reviewing the car as though it's a Lotus Elise! Review the car for what it's intended for and clearly hammering round a narrow track is not its purpose. A very blinkered review, for a more mature, sober critique of this vehicle, watch Chris Harris's take on it.

[@adamm3388]

Totally agree on this. Really don't like how all reviewers keep talking about use cases that was it never intended for. Driving it around a track and then base your entire opinion on it is absolutely useless.

[@LafemmebearMusic]

Its a porsche not a honda or skoda.... its a porsche and you all can pretend all you want you'd bever soend the money they are asking for a 1.9 tonne porsche diesel with a 250 hp v6... its slow btw and expensive. Why do you want to be contrary just for the sake of it? Its not making you more interesting...

[@LafemmebearMusic]

Just looked, 78k 78 thousand, thats the starting price no options for this... add two packages 88k... you still ready to pep for this 250 hp v6 diesel...

[@themerchantofmenace3645]

If you can afford a Porsche, it shouldn't be a Diesel. They're not wrong.

[@scottj6287]

I’ll have a look at Harris’s review now. I personally like the Panamera and I’m really wanting one. This review disappoints me

[@viveklego]

Yes I hate a diesel Panamera, but 0/10 is WAAAAY too harsh. I mean, the interior is top notch.

It's bigger brother, the cayenne - has entered the chat.

[@darrenmorris8666]

I think it's a great second hand buy if you do a lot of driving and want brand kudos

[@f0revery0ung101]

Why try save fuel ? Because those who have money like to keep a hold of it

[@mathogre]

I get it about Diesels, except when Audi won 5 of the 24 Hours of Le Mans races since 2006 with Diesels. You can't just plant a Diesel in a gasoline/petrol car and expect it to work the same. It is however a singularly bletcherous looking, uh, vehicle.

[@erickjuma7643]

I give it 10 so its 21/40. Above average. We win

[@stephenbarnard9154]

Team needs to work out what this type of car is for... If you're regularly crossing continents you really don't want to be stopping every couple of hundred miles / couple of hours for fuel!! It's a completely fundamental reason for any big, proper GT to be diesel - or to have a 200 litre fuel tank.

[@quentin818]

How can they call that a review, they’ve lost touch with the average joe so, it’s the perfect car, for the second hand market, for people like me, who don’t want a Ford Mondeo. Can’t afford to drive a gas guzzler. But can get a luxury car that’s sporty enough, and can bring 4 people and your dogs in the back. Down from 72k, to 20k. It’s a No brainier. Now that would be a better review.

[@williammorafo1246]

You all need to grow up - not everyone who buys a Porsche drives it like a lunatic, besides the only reason you test cars the way you do is you are fixated on one thing and one thing only - speed! People buy cars for different reasons...your one sided approach to reviewing cars is so 80’s

[@FAT8893]

Ha ha, jokes on you. Porsche owners, particularly 911 and Cayman owners, LOVE to drive like a lunatic especially at the track.

[@johnarnold491]

@@FAT8893 I don't know about you, but keep it on the track. No need to drive like a fuck witt on the roads and put everyone else in danger.

[@paulnedoiu6787]

I love the diesel model. What is bad about being a fuel economy car ??!

[@dailyupdates7282]

Diesel is best

[@gabrielcaramet3238]

I relly like diesel cars

[@timbotha4422]

Especially when this car is such a motorway mile beast. A diesel option really makes sense

[@LafemmebearMusic]

No diesel porsche... just no. Economy cars are great... this is not what this car is about... like dont just be contrary for the sake of being so its boring and unoriginal...

[@arshoohanyan754]

You can't really talk about economy when the car starts at a whopping 72000 pounds. Diesel engines are great, but not in a Porsche IMHO.

[@malcolmbriggs4281]

The speed limit is 70 do they know.

[@applejuice5272]

It's higher in other countries around the world

[@Thb202]

Only 70 when police are around

[@user-jy8mo5fi5q]

The 3 litre diesel has 250 BHP compared to a 2.7 litre air cooled Porsche 911 which has 175 BHP. The diesel has 75BHP more

[@jk-mm5to]

I'd like to see a wagon with a removable rear bench seat.

i don't know, i like how it look's is like a 911 but saloon, i guess you could get one of those cheap in a few years

[@Major_Mason]

Ugh the Panamera does NOT need a diesel model!!! >:( All petro, hybrid, or I wish an all electric version!!!!

[@charles-9134]

FastLikeUNO i know right🙄🙄

[@supposedly6991]

Diesel has a HUGE purpose and that's having A LOT more torque than petrol.

[@daveerdine7088]

She was not blinded by the badge, YO&U were Tiff. It's a gamer changer

[@nicholasstocker6866]

I’m probably going to be hated for this but I actually like how the original Panamera. However, why the hell did they make a diesel version?

[@FAT8893]

Porsche and Diesel never go well in one sentence, even if it's the Cayenne.

[@Darthadios]

I like the Panamera, and if your country doesn´t have a diesel tax that is really economical, and how it´s bad if you can have more miles with your money ?

[@farishanafiah8461]

0:49 Tiff's not wrong though. If I want a diesel Volkswagen, I buy a diesel Volkswagen, not a diesel Porsche.

[@herlandermorais4743]

[@damithgoonerathne2469]

Diesel in a Porsche does not make sense

[@AndorRadnai]

I could surely afford a petrol engine if I can afford a Panamera..! Although I would prefer the Diesel over the Hybrid. (I’m a sucker for boot space)

Where are we going to trash a car like this. Its a lovely car

[@do51lab97]

I like the way it looks

[@xCOWxTIPPERx]

isn't this like a 2014

[@jesseparris6507]

This is not a review of the Porsche Panamera diesel. This is a platform to show off these three celebrities in front of ANY car. The year of the car is not even listed! How can you seriously call yourself a car reviewer if you don't even understand the basis of the review?

[@stevesteve2920]

That Johnny chap is a total tool, never heard him say anything constructive

[@bicyclist2]

Chris Harris liked the Panamera, and so did Harry from EVO. So thumbs down for 5th gear. As the Panamera isn't a race car, Chris Harris and Harry have much more credibility than Tiff when it comes to everyday use.

[@VSS1]

Why release this when it's so old. it's no longer relevant. There is a newer version out already and you've just released the review of the old one.

[@Coxy002605]

These are TV episodes from years ago, uploaded to KZbin.

[@VSS1]

Yes i know that. I'm just trying to impress upon them to release them sooner and make then more relevant.

[@tomslater319]

I find them rather entertaining, even if the videos are old.

[@Coxy002605]

It's a TV show, therefore there are broadcasting rights to abide by.

[@VSS1]

I see alot of other programs on KZbin soon after filming. It's not like the whole episode. It's just going to make it a little long in the tooth.

[@TheAstmn]

2:16 why does he look like Walter White?

[@felixlaupc]

"I like big"....

[@RobG001]

So what that bell-end Tiff is saying he is happy to fill up with fuel every time he has to stop for the loo, Me, I hate having to fuel up, cars should have large enough fuel tanks so you can do several hundred miles without having to fill up. or only need fueling up at the end of the day, 700 mile range sounds great.

[@porschecayenne9723]

Why a diesel?Simple,longer trips with an tank of fuel,it s a luxury sedan not a 911 sports car!End it s still a Porsche!

[@marcosfan90]

Even in everyday usage, less worry to fill it up all the time. I have to fill up a gas-guzzling merc every 1.5 weeks. I wish I went for a diesel. If you have a family of 4 and want the badge the amazing interior, and the amzing gt capabilities the panamera diesel beats everything especially the new one with 420 bhp

[@cheesyeurotrance95]

Why a diesel? Well to have the same fuel costs with a petrol car, you need to convert it to run on LPG, so what would you rather have - LPG or diesel? I choose diesel because LPG converted Porsche sounds way more ridiculous than a diesel Porsche.

[@janet53589]

This has turned into a cartoon.

[@applejuice5272]

0:57 lol

[@zakariahlafreniere1332]

Why does this not take the bmw five series?

[@attilazk]

0?!?! Tiff... come one. At least count in the engineering, design and effort that Porsche engineers made. I agree with the diesel "error" choice, especially since VAG got into this "diesel mess". Diesels should be reserved for trucks, where it can remain logical. In passenger cars, go for hybrids, PHEV, or EVs in the future.

[@cheesyeurotrance95]

Well I'd rather have a diesel Porsche than a LPG converted Porsche, you have no idea how many Cayennes are converted to run on LPG because driving them on petrol is incredibly expensive

[@michaelschneider-]

+1 .. Many buyers in the luxo-barge saloon market (Jag XJ, .7 Series, .A/S8, .S Class, .Tesla, etc.) agree with Ms. Vicky regarding the Panamera ver.1 styling. .. The diesel 3.0l fitment is another peculiar Porsche AG marketing decision altogether. .. The Panamera is-what-it-is, independent of its pedigree namesake. .. Drove a Panamera S (service loaner) for several days and I can tell you, the exterior aesthetic as controversial as it is .. all but disappears when challenging the chassis agility; Suspension, braking and engine performance of this heavy weight, 2-ton plus luxo-barge. .. Nice Team Test review. .. I'll stick with my '98 Porsche C2S (993) coupe.

Eh, still better than the hybrid.
