VW recalls 800,000 Touareg and Porsche Cayennne cars to check pedalsThe carmakers said 391,000 Touaregs and 409,477 Cayennes built between 2011 and 2016 would be recalled
The truth about Greek Porsche ownersOne of the many eye-catching claims made about Greece was about the number of Porsche Cayennes."A couple of years ago, there were more Cayennes circulating in Greece than individuals who declared and paid taxes on an annual income of more than 50,000 euros, a figure only slightly above the vehicle's list price" is a quote widely reported in mainstream media and on blogs worldwide.It came from Prof Herakles Polemarchakis, a former economics adviser to the prime minister of Greece, and now a lecturer at Warwick University in the UK. But when asked, Prof Polemarchakis said his remark was casual, based on what had been circulating in policy circles in Greece a few years back.So what are the facts?In 2010, there were 311,428 people with declared incomes of more than 50,000 euros (£41,260) paying tax in Greece.It was a figure that made a spokesman at Porsche laugh. Lukas Kunze says the story is "ridiculous". In total, they had only sold around 1,500 Porsche Cayennes in Greece since the launch of the luxury car nine years ago.
