Re: Hi everbody.....Petrol or Diesel ( Due to the recent admissions from Porsche)

Just to add the 640 has a very linear power delivery Audi engines in my opion seem more "Frantic" lower down in the rev range. What did you drive before you had the GTS? (FMR)

Re: Hi everbody.....Petrol or Diesel ( Due to the recent admissions from Porsche)

Not sure to be honest, I wouldn't want to say as far as I am concerned the conversation was private, and as I have a lot of respect for him I don't wish to compromise him in any way, either way though pulling 3.0D from the panamera from the configuration is an admission.

Re: Hi everbody.....Petrol or Diesel ( Due to the recent admissions from Porsche)

OK OK…. I'm getting the hint here! Joking apart…i cannot buy a Diesel at the moment, i think if i had one at the moment i would feel extremely well eerrr " Cheated!! ". The extra fuel/R tax, will be around £1400 per year more than the SD. I configured the three models (excluding the Turbo)...

I spoke to the Opc yesterday and he told me I could not order a Macan sd today,i said to him that I would not want to buy a potentially compromised car and he agreed, and said I would have to wait until a solution is found.

Re: Hi everbody.....Petrol or Diesel ( Due to the recent admissions from Porsche)

I didn't notice a great deal of lag, but found if i quickly put my foot down there was a delay, not as sharp as the 640, and yes i asked the same question " Why put a Detuned engine into a Porsche" "So if i wanted a faster car, i should by the Audi?"
