Re: Black Macan Turbo collected

Just over two years and 4 months with the Macan, and it has gone. Enjoyed my time with it, but heading towards end of lease and decided time for a change. Stuck with Porsche though - collected this a week ago: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47570611162_d6a6b761d3_c.jpg Untitled by uh_simon , on...

Cool boxes?


I have had a Mobicool AC/DC cool box for 5 years and it is very good. holds a lot more than the Porsche offering and is half the price. Having an AC/DC version is useful as I can take it into the hotel for overnight stops.


any particular model?

PDK lever noise in P when pressing brake pedal

yes get it checked out - mine doesn't do that. But there are a whole bunch of solenoids and controllers on a PDK gear box, and they can go wrong as I discovered on my Boxster........

Not available on an SD

If you want aluminium bling then why not get the Ally PDK gear selector ? That's what I'd go for. Never specced it but it does look lovely. Only thing that put me off was it looks a bit cold on the old hands in the Winter. I'm a fan of toasty with my heated steering wheel and seats. Just wish we cou...

Initial thoughts on SD Sports Exhaust retrofit

Keeping in touch with OPC

I've just ordered Porsche number 5 in the last 2 years from my OPC. I know everyone from the receptionist to the dealer principal and all the service staff, valeters etc. By nature I'm a relationship builder as you get the most out of things if you do. My advice stick with one OPC and yes keep talk...
