First Drive: Porsche Cayenne Diesel

We'll admit that while we don't count ourselves amongst the purists who hate the Cayenne, even we feel a slight shudder when a diesel engine sparks into life beneath a Porsche badge.

Nevertheless the new version of the Cayenne Diesel is absolutely critical to Porsche's position in the SUV market, and even if there is something a little odd about the oil burner's presence under the bonnet, it doesn't take long for the car to work its way under your skin.
