Diesel S Poverty Spec - Tell me I'm wrong!

Oh dear danwtmoon
You said yes to mobile phone prep
You are on the slippery slope now
£5000 worth of specs before you even know it
By the way I love the surround view and strongly recommend it
Of course you need PCM for that I think jamacan2015-10-27 21:15:33

Oh no, an expensive mistake then!?

Hi CarmenI paid a deposit for the 2.0 L in June 2014 purely because there was a much shorter waiting list and I was in no mood to wait more than 12 months for a car. But with every month that passed I was less sure I had made the right decision. The pros of course apart from the shorter waiting list...

Would anyone like a late Oct delivery turbo

Whitehouse I believe the negativity is because you are making the queue longer for people that have waited long already. The queue would be shorter by one if you do the honourable thing and take your deposit back and let the next person in line move up one slot. I think the difference between people...

Would anyone like a late Oct delivery turbo

I would be surprised if the OPC are ok with it. What do they have to gain and why would they put themselves at risk? They have enough people waiting and don't need to take a chance with breaching franchise rules. From my point of view although I have my Macan now, I don't agree that selling your slo...

Discount on GAP Insurance, Tyre, Alloy, Insurance

That's a fantastic deal Steve W, but my OPC was asking for £995 for GAP alone!I finally got tyre insurance from them but got GAP, alloy wheels, and scratch and dent, and excess cover from ALA.I would have preferred to go direct with the OPC because I agree it would be good to have everything in one ...

Mac S Diesel mpg



This is from my short trip this morning with figures for my petrol S for comparison and to make your diesels look good. (?)
Very hilly winding country roads with some urban bits.

BUILD DATE CONFIRMED

Mcanny
Have you got GAP insurance with your AVIVA policy or just the new for old for 2 years?
Unless it's proper GAP insurance it won't necessarily cover you for several circumstances. What is worse is that after 2 years you won't be able to get proper GAP insurance of full value.

Macan not a real porsche

It will be my first Porsche so I'm not the best person to comment on whether it's really a Porsche. But if Porsche put their name on it (and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't just do it to make more money in the short term)That's good enough for me I'm not normally a very enthusiastic petrol head and wo...
