0.12 -> do these bigger modern 911s give you more
space in the rear is it easier to get child
5.69 -> seats back there and having recently driven
a very special analog 997 CSR is this turbocharged
12.75 -> four-wheel drive electronic aided 911 going
to leave me feeling a bit numb let's find
17.439 -> out my name's Ben and welcome to Dad cars
[Music]
37.41 -> [Music]
41.87 -> [Music]
46.32 -> hi guys and welcome back to the channel so
I haven't recently driven a 997 gives us a
50.91 -> good comparable today because these cars are
bigger aren't they I mean it's 2.2 inches
55.46 -> longer two inches wider and the wheelbase
is a massive four inches wider hopefully fingers
61.41 -> crossed that means more space in the rear
right but what's really impressive is that
65.119 -> despite the size gain these are actually lighter
than the comparable 997 really impressive
71.159 -> when you consider these have got about 60
kilograms worth of extra safety equipment
75.85 -> as well which is music to the ears of anybody
looking for a dad car so excluding the air
80.77 -> cool generation 911s I believe and this might
be unpopular that the 991 is the best looking
86.99 -> 911.
88.38 -> I just love it I love it from every angle
there's not one part of this car which I think
92.64 -> looks dated and it all looks completely Timeless
and these rear lights to my eye are perfect
98.43 -> effect I've always fought 996 997 generation
lights always look a little bit awkward apart
103.78 -> from the 9964s with that full reflector strip
I love those even the uh the 992 now I don't
109.45 -> know I just don't think they look as good
as these and look you can see this very car
115.96 -> known has driven it down to Portsmouth today
for me to film hence why it's a bit dirty
120.38 -> so this is a 991.2 generation 911 and it features
a three liter turbocharged Flat 6 which produces
126.25 -> around 414 brake horsepower around 370 pound
foot of torque zero to sixty and around three
132.98 -> and a half seconds and top speed 189 miles
per hour and I mean I'll check the classifieds
138.87 -> today and you can see the used prices starting
from about 70 000 but if you're buying it
143.53 -> from Porsche which is highly recommended with
a modern 911 you know more around the 80 000
148.569 -> I would say and obviously being the 4S it's
got four wheel drive as well but look that's
152.79 -> enough of the wiffle waffle let's have a look
in the back and see how practical these rear
156.83 -> seats are as a dad car so getting in the back
of a 991 911 I've been looking forward to
164.489 -> this for a very long time
167.14 -> 511 full grown adult okay we're getting look
I do fit back here yeah it's the roof line
173.04 -> isn't it you know I'm sort of hunched down
I can't sit back but yeah certainly a half
177.28 -> an hour Journey this would be absolutely fine
so you can get adults back here teenagers
181.88 -> depend on how big your teenagers get you know
they might be sort of uncomfortable in longer
185.25 -> Journeys but let's have a look at child seats
though and yes I see some isofix logos very
190.569 -> exciting let's try rear-facing baby seat
197.67 -> so let's have a look at an isofix base in
this just be special
203.78 -> so far so good it's in there
208.3 -> so getting it in position it's not as hard
as I was expecting it to be in the 9 11.
215.97 -> right so we clicked in there what are the
charts did you reckon the seat will go back
218.53 -> wouldn't that just be wonderful okay no so
this passenger seat is in a practical and
225.88 -> usable position at the moment and it's not
going back however if I pull it all the way
230.489 -> forward and just see if it's possible so I've
moved the passenger seat forward to the point
233.75 -> where it does click back so we've got a nicer
fix rear face of babysitting behind which
238.989 -> is super exciting I mean it look it's it's
compromised my my leg space is minimal but
244.17 -> I'm I'm not touching the glove box and I mean
I'm more upright than I'd ideally want to
249.56 -> be but um I could certainly sit here and I'm
5 11.
253.97 -> so yeah a massive thumbs up now I did reach
out to Porsha and asked him if they'd lend
258.13 -> me some of their child seats um for today
um but I didn't get any Joy with that with
263.3 -> that first Contact I mean I'll keep trying
you know because this isn't going to be the
266.169 -> last 911 I review and I mean if I had the
Porsche the child seats here it would be really
271.31 -> interesting for everybody wouldn't it so if
anybody knows who I should sort of speak to
274.85 -> about arranging that let me know and obviously
in the 997 we did get the rear facing baby
279.639 -> seat in about secure didn't we but not isofix
and that's the thing you know getting this
284.19 -> in and out with an isofix base is actually
really practical whereas having about secure
290.13 -> every single time and getting the baby in
and out is perhaps not so practical so um
294.87 -> yeah I'm very impressed 991 huge thumbs up
for me but how about booster seats larger
301.02 -> seats I mean here I've got a folding booster
seat with isofix and it's this seat which
305.73 -> I demonstrated in the back of the DBS super
legere and fitted quite well so yeah certainly
310.45 -> fits in there quite nicely let's check with
the uh with the driver's seat back so I've
315.781 -> just moved the driver's seat to a position
which I would be very comfortable driving
319 -> in that's definitely a sufficient legroom
there so it's good to see you know you don't
323.009 -> have to have the Porsche branded child seats
you have other things do fit back here as
327.09 -> well so just like the 997 belt to kill child
seats in here are a little bit compromised
331.449 -> because of these thick seat belt positions
so you see here I've had to pack something
335.44 -> in behind this I mean it's nice and sturdy
but yeah isofix Solutions I think are going
341.91 -> to be a better bet well it passes at that
car's boot test I wouldn't say easily but
348.86 -> that is impressive I think of the four-wheel
drive one it would have been less space in
352.26 -> the front very usable boot
355.76 -> here you can see the legroom
366 -> now I have pushed this seat very far back
which is always advisable when you've got
372.97 -> a little one in a child seat at the front
there obviously get them away from the airbag
376.28 -> you cannot switch off the passenger side airbag
so rear-facing baby seats can only go in the
380.789 -> back this is the fastest car you've ever been
in like the other one just like the one that
388.18 -> we did me and you the other 911 the 997 yeah
well done well remembered [Music] they're
396.16 -> cool right so you put a little car in so we
start it up and see what it sounds like
408.4 -> [Music]
409.4 -> exterior the 991 is the 911.
411.32 -> it does it for me it gives me the Fizz but
what about interior coming from an Aston Martin
416.319 -> well let me tell you I think it's perfectly
judged in here this feels really really special
421.89 -> this contrast stitching I love red Interiors
on cars I really do this steering wheel feels
427.59 -> so special this they've nailed it they've
nailed it I think they've gone too far with
431.63 -> the current generation one but this one oh
I feel very excited just sitting in here and
438.32 -> that's what you want from a special car like
this that costs this much money right so should
442.289 -> we go then girls yeah so the handbraking here
is an automatic one just like it was in a
447.26 -> DBS superlegger I recently drove so this is
the third Porsche I've ever driven and you
453.12 -> can see the other two on my channel taikan
Turbo S and the 997 CSR could this be the
461.94 -> Goldilocks sweet spot for me let's find out
[Music]
466.259 -> so the steering wheel on here then it's it
feels a lot more modern than that 997 one
474.64 -> it looks lovely and it probably fits the car
much better but I love the feel of that 997
481.3 -> one in the hand very small and lovely and
the instrument cluster on here is incredible
486.659 -> so you've got all but one of your dials at
Analog and that's what I like right
493.17 -> the throttle response is fantastic coming
out there really really good early indications
504 -> tell me that you can't really tell this on
a turbocharged one so the owner of this car
509.09 -> I'm a massive thank you going on he's actually
following me right now in my DB9
513.93 -> oh it does look fantastic no his actors are
so beautiful aren't they but these must look
521.599 -> like a right pair driving around
522.88 -> oh yes this car is not lacking the power and
any Super Bowl is it well let's give it a
539.25 -> little pull uphill ready
541.52 -> [Music] right girl so we are going to go a
little bit fast here okay so everybody heads
545.95 -> back you know the drill yeah this is the fastest
car you've ever been in with your daddy feel
550.48 -> how fast it is you ready all right we're gonna
go you ready
559.35 -> what do you think of that [Music] and take
long to get to 40 .
572.63 -> it feels lovely
575.48 -> so running costs then I mean this car's owner
is 25.
578.31 -> come on it's also got a Porsche McCann a diesel
one incredible the insurance on this for 25
587.99 -> year old about two and a half thousand pounds
miles per gallon I mean you can get about
594.31 -> 35 on a long run it's more likely if you're
really on it it's going to be in the teens
599.14 -> isn't it tax I believe is 360 pounds I believe
I'll double check so having recently driven
605.37 -> that 997 CSR I can tell you that yes look
straight away you do notice a difference in
610.78 -> that CSR the steering field was like running
your hands along the tarmac you could feel
616.32 -> so much from the steering wheel and just the
way that those guys set those cars up there
622.06 -> just they're incredible for driver engagement
in the field and some of that is lost in this
626.459 -> car but look if you're thinking that that's
a bad thing the level of refinement you're
631.88 -> getting here while still remaining very sporty
feeling this is such a special sporty beer
637.99 -> car and it feels like pinpoint Precision Sharp
sniper rifle Sharp oh this is lovely and obviously
649.05 -> visibility seating position in a 911 it's
just perfect isn't it
655.36 -> view of that iconic 911 shoulder the wing
mirror there
663.209 -> the shapes at the front makes it really lovely
to place and just a lovely thing to look at
671.34 -> and just to constantly reminded that you're
driving a very special car a 911.
675.82 -> so it's the age-old question that's been debated
for the last 60 years of my potential heads
680 -> and we'll continue to be debated forever I
believe what is the ultimate 911 well I got
687.2 -> the answer for you is it an air called one
is it a turbocharged super fast one is it
692.94 -> one oh shhh-sugar [ __ ]
699.63 -> oh [ __ ] [Music] so I just pulled over
the camera re-secured so the age-old debate
710.96 -> has been raging for the last 60 years is what
is the best 911 there's a debate that's going
719.17 -> to rage on forever I think amongst pixel heads
but I've got the answer for you is it a manual
725.11 -> is it a pdk is it naturally aspirated is it
a turbocharged really fast one is it one with
732.29 -> hydraulic steering is it the early cars is
it the most recent one but the thing is Porsche
739.47 -> pins so hard at work making arguably the best
sports cars for the last 60 years and there's
747.4 -> so many variants so the answer is whatever
whatever 911 you think is the best 911 that's
755.66 -> the best one to you and that's all that matters
it's a 9 11 for everyone isn't there right
765.49 -> so we have to take this cyclist [Music]
772.69 -> s [Music] what do you think what's the best
911 of all time drop it in the comments below
778.85 -> foreign
781.089 -> feel amazing it's got a really satisfying
short little click on it and it moves with
801.02 -> the steering wheel as well which it doesn't
do any Aston Martin which I guess when you're
804.48 -> on the Autobahn doing crazy speeds you want
both hands on that wheel no matter what just
810.829 -> noticed actually the dampers are in sport
mode so let's click it and yeah it gets even
816.69 -> more civilized and yeah refined this is lovely
you could easily have your child sleeping
824.5 -> in the back in that rear facing myself EXP
826.48 -> ensive
827.48 -> it's up straight head back okay in manual
mode National speed limit we're ready [Music]
841.82 -> um
842.82 -> it was that fast it doesn't take long to get
to 60 does it what was it for around three
851.56 -> and a half seconds something like that the
four-wheel drive you can actually probably
856.279 -> hit those numbers as well
864.84 -> and the Porsche sports exhaust that's on this
as well with its switchable modes it's really
870.49 -> well judged and when it's in the loud mode
oh is it loud
875.259 -> they're lightning fast god they've just nailed
it Avenue these pdks now absolutely nailed
896.279 -> it I've never known gear shift so quick you
see that rev gauge sound ships as well that's
916.22 -> amazing absolutely incredible
919.54 -> [Music]
920.649 -> I do love the earlier feel from that that
earlier 997 CSR
923.98 -> and I mean if I had one of those and then
I also had a you know a more refined sort
930.639 -> of daily as well I mean that would definitely
be a 911 to have but if I could only have
937.19 -> one 911 which on my budget I can I think it
would be the 991 they've done such a fantastic
944.769 -> job now with these turbocharged 911s turbo
lag you know is something which in the 90s
952.411 -> was you know a real real big thing but it's
almost non-existent now with these cars that
958.97 -> just goes to show how refined it is in here
love right sweetie now if I was a normal person
967.149 -> and only had two or even three children a
991 911 is what I would most likely he'd get
974.639 -> next after the Aston I mean I'd only be able
to afford A 991.1 and S you know one of the
982 -> really early cars but I've got four children
haven't I and I want my next car to have the
989.92 -> ability to carry all four of my children so
I need a rear seat which is flat to get a
995.72 -> multi-mac in there free across and you can't
do that in a 911 so I can't add this to the
1002.54 -> list to replace the Aston because of those
rear seats and I guess that's quite welcome
1007.48 -> because I've driven so many exciting cars
under that car's Channel already that that
1011.37 -> list is growing by the day so in summary then
for the 991.2 C4S I mean having a 911 which
1020.37 -> is a bit more refined you know in a comfort
setting I mean the sweetie here and you know
1027.77 -> and it's actually just a bit more sort of
poised and precise and easier to drive it's
1034.24 -> easier to drive isn't it I mean as a dad car
you know it's probably a safer and more practical
1041.22 -> and thing that you could actually sort of
daily and drive in all weathers so yeah this
1047.169 -> may well make the 991 a better dad car however
this car today is considerably more expensive
1053.919 -> than that CSR and around three times the cost
of a decent stock 997 so I'll have to get
1059.5 -> an early 991 on the channel for a fairer comparison
so look thank you all so much for watching
1064.84 -> I really appreciate it subscribe if you haven't
already and if you have hit the Bell icon
1069.309 -> like comment share this video stick around
