Re: Macan EV Official Launch Date!

I met a couple last month who had driven out to the Alps and came unstuck with the car running out of charge, and needing to be rescued. It was an Audi but chargers were out of action and they needed to call Audi assistance. What should have been a 10 hour journey took over 24 hours as the place the...

Re: Insurance shock

Just to add my 2p Churchill are refusing to renew our gen 3 GTS. No reason given and no change in circumstances. It was less than £600 last year. What a pain.

Re: Mat Watsons New 911 GT3 RS

I bet Carwow steer a lot of business to some of the big multi brand car groups so I can see that helping.

Also the £1900 a month payments aren’t too big a drama given he’s sitting on a near £200k profit at the moment.

Re: New Macan Comes Early

Out of interest which is the other manufacturer? I bought a Volvo bike rack for my Macan which was also from Thule but much cheaper. I’m now looking for a sleek roofbox but without the Porsche tax.

Re: Panoramic roof - leaks?

I had a 2016 GTS from new with leaks for 2 consecutive years and then sold it for a mk3 GTS but without sunroof so sorry I can’t really help, other than I wouldn’t buy one again with pano roof.

Re: Water ingress issues

A lot of people say the pano roof is a must, but then a lot of people with pano roofs have found water ingress like you describe. I’m on my 3rd Macan and had pano on the the first 2 but deliberately not on the most recent one. Personally I would avoid the pano roof going forward.

Re: 6 years in and Service price shock

Definitely worth phoning around a few OPCs and a independent or 2 for quotes for bargaining purposes.

Re: Gen 3 Rear Seatbelt Sensor Issue

Just thought I’d update this in case anyone else has the same problem. My mk3 GTS has now been in 4 times for the rear seatbelt warning going off and has the latest software but is still not fixed. Supposedly it’s logged as an issue but there is no fix. Bonkers really considering my first 2 Macans d...

It wasn’t so great in real life and looked more pinky.

Re: Unusual colour?

And not surprisingly not a popular choice when it was available. There was a rare metallic red available at the same time that is similarly niche.
