Is this a record?

I saw three in about five minutes around the M58/M6 area near Liverpool last week, and then none all the way back to the Midlands.

Seems that Cayennes hunt in packs!?[;)]

Saw a champagne gold 'biturbo' getting off the A40 at Hanger Lane the other week...
(biturbo in red script, looked quite 'snazzy') assume it's a aftermarket prepped Paprika?
 
I am assuming a Paprika is 'hotter' than a Cayenne? [:D]

Helen? When did you become a non-member? I thought you were a mod here?

yes i noticed that too. though i seem to have regained my membership status this morning. it appears i can't be a moderator on the forum anymore. guess im just not trusted.

seems jeff didn't like me deleting the threads on region 8 even though the only ones (i always kept it current at all times)on there were advertising events that won't be taking place anymore now im not organising them.

oh well gives me more time to talk to me new friends on DDK forum[:D]
 
I saw 6 in one hour, which is a personal record (apart from inside an OPC). A bit of a cheat though - this was in Puerto Banus, near Marbella in Spain.
 
Looks like that was a steady run then? Not much variation in the driving, would have fallen asleep at that pace for an hour [;)] still nearly 30mpg on a V8 impressive
 
thinking of inversting in a cayenne. what realistically can i expect mpg from a 3.2 oand s given i do one run a week and the rest round town driving. running a discovery at mo and stick circa £50 a week in the tank

Well £50 will get you marginally less than half a tank in a KN (100 litre tank) I would suspect that you will be getting around 19 - 22 mpg from a 3.2 on what you describe and in fairness not much less with the V8. All depends on how you drive really.
If I use my 3.2 on short runs it kills the consumption especially because it doesn't get warmed up and the computer can show down to 15mpg but as it warm & a few miles on it ill do 19's. If I then go on a run at a steady 80 it'll do 24mpg but the average since the last reset a few tanks ago is 22.6.

Not to hijack your post but if you want a 3.2 let me know thinking of selling mine, nice spec too.
