Somebody should probably have a word with Afzal Kahn and tell him to get some sleep. It seems barely a day passes without news of a new car emerging from the Bradford based design centre. Today's is a thorough reworking of the Porsche Panamera.
Said to combine German engineering with quintessentially British styling the Kahn Panamera sports a wide track styling package consisting of wide vented front and rear wheel arches with integrated rear air dam, lower boot wing, a lowered sports suspension system, billet aluminium side vents, privacy tinted glass, red brake calipers and tinted rear lamps. This Panamera also sports dramatic 22-inch Kahn RS600 alloy wheels that fill the extended arches perfectly.
The interior of the car is equally as dramatic with quilted and perforated claret leather and a red and cream rev counter facia.
But while the looks may grab attention the noise will not. That is because Afzal has chosen to fit a new stainless steel quad exhaust system - complete with cross hair detailing - that is claimed to deliver increased performance without any more noise.
The asking price for this particular car is £86,875, but as always with Kahn you can have the Panamera your way.
