Porsche Cayenne Turbo S vs Range Rover Evoque

Couldn't the brake problem be fixed by replacing pads, having rotors turned, and a general cleaning ? Have a certified Porsche mechanic read the codes for the warning light issues, and make sure all fluid levels are up to snuff to prevent tripping sensors.

I would stay away from any British car when there are German cars to buy....we have a BMW 325ci, a Porsche 944, a VW Jetta, and a VW cabrio. (Oh, and a Ford diesel 4x4).

If you want excitement I would stick with what you have. My Lexus RX350 is quiet, smooth and very reliable. To quote another Pelican you pay to play with a Porsche. RX is not so much fun but does not cost much to run. Cayenne is a Porsche after all.

Check True Delta for reliability of the Land Rover.

My Mother in Law got out of a Cayenne GTS for an X5 due to some minor issues...

...she can't wait for the lease on the X5 to be up, the next Cayenne has already been ordered.

I have a 2004 turbo. It has had a few problems like described over its 100+k miles, but all were easily fixed by my local independent for a few bucks. The difference between Turbo and non Tubos (at leat the ones I have driven) is significant. Both in acceleration and braking. I really love mine and it had pretty much been as reliable as my Lexus.

I've done a few Seattle to SoCal trips in the Cayenne, and always arrive well rested.

I did the same (one way) in a friends Land Rover - Butt-hurt less than half way thru. Felt like I was sitting on a park bench.

The Cayenne is comfortable.

I believe that the two share the same air-suspension pump; maybe more.
