My previous PCP example assumes you find the cash to pay off the GMV. If you were to take out a 4-year loan on the same interest rate to pay off the car and get out of the PCP loop, we have a 4th figure. Cost for: 1. Cash buyer = £72k 2. Repayment loan = £86k 3. PCP with GMV paid cash = £93k 4. PCP ...

This shows why PCP is so expensive.

Cash = £72k
Repayment cost = £86k
PCP cost = £93k

I imagine many people who use PCP focus on the monthly payment and not the TCO.

It's a bad idea to buy a depreciating asset on finance. It's a worse idea if that finance is PCP, the most expensive finance product out there. Given the popularity of PCP though, I presume most people don't understand the product, do it because everyone else does it, badly want something they canno...

We've been switching back and forth between our GenH1IIS and two GenH1III loan models. Three loan cars for a week each. As a result I can say without doubt the order is: 1. 20" steel (PASM) 2. 20" air 3. 21" air Interesting. I certainly felt the 21" wheels +15% (?) stiffer suspe...

I've got the Bosch 18v 'Power for all' leaf blower, primarily for blowing leaves. However, I occasionally use it on my car wheels, mirrors etc and it does the job. However, if you're wanting something specifically for the car, I'd recommend a dedicated car dryer if you can get one for a decent price...

Back on topic, congratulations on the new car #Deucedeuce. I've had all three variations of the generation 1 GTS model and, frankly, haven't noticed a perceptible different in performance due to ever increasing horsepower figures. What I have noticed though is that the 20" wheels perforce signi...

My Gen2 S is apparently a "Generation H1 II" as per the Porsche used car finder (screenshot below). H1 means you have a generation 1 Macan. As with all Porsches, the letters after reflect the refresh. II means it's the mid-life refreshed model. Unlike most Porsches, the generation 1 Macan...

It will be a long time before anyone on this forum has a Gen 3 Macan!!!

Gen 1 Macan
- Macan I
- Macan II - first facelift
- Macan III - second facelift

Gen 2 Macan
- Macan EV

Tell me Porsche hasn't put fake vents on the back of the 'turbo' model? Hard to tell from the pictures, but I suspect they're fake.

Everyone talks about global carbon emissions. For me, the ultimate need to go electric is because we cannot indefinitely run things off a depleting oil resource. There may be around 50 years of oil left at current consumption. But it doesn't make sense for humanity to use it all up in that time - or...
