OPC has just offered me NEW Macan Turbo ??

My OPC has literally just offered me there first Turbo. I certainly wasn't first on their list, and have have been given given 24 hrs to spec the car. The car configurator doesn't even have it listed yet! Is there less interest in this car than there was - or am I being well looked after? I have to ...

Re: GTS Wheel Sizes

IMHO, I prefer the 20s because I like seeing a little more tyre wall on the rim, to complement the overall look of the car.
Plus the 20s give a better 'all round' performance.
Pig to clean though...

Re: Another Team Silver GTS arrives !

I thought it was a lot of money - and since the right hand dial is still black, I felt matching them was less critical.

Another Team Silver GTS arrives !

Just to say am finally the happy owner of Macan No 5. These are great cars - so versatile. This time I spec'd it sensibly - but every box that matters 'to me' was ticked, which means no sunroof and PTV+. I feel the silver with black wheels/red callipers makes this car look a tad more sporty than the...

PTV+ A review.

There have been previous discussions about the benefits of spec’ing PTV+ or not. I always believed my second SD drove much better with PTV+, than my first one without it. So yesterday down at the PEC I made it an aim to learn a little more about it. I did arrive at an answer. Conditions were damp/dr...

Re: Order to delivery times.

I bet they are SDs. My OPC says they have a few to clear - not the case with petrols though.

GTS - Delivery Dilemna

Hi guys, My GTS arrived into the UK from Emden, on either Friday 2nd or Saturday 3rd June. It now has to travel to Scotland first - for OPC prep - then has to be delivered down to me in the Midlands. I have been told that I should have it w/c 19th June. That seems pretty slow to me - so before I hav...

Re: Sweetspot Macan?

My SD always averaged above 30 mpg - which is acceptable for a 2 tonne car.
But you don't buy a GTS to think about fuel consumption.
