Delivery delays?

My GTS hasn't deviated by a day from first given a June delivery date a couple of weeks after I put the deposit down in Oct. Could it simply be that some SE has overpromised and is now trying to manage his or her way out of the problem by saying that there all delayed. There seems to wildly differi...

Detailing Done...collection tommorrow

Def think body colour blades are the way to go on a white car. Wheels look very special in that colour as well. Enjoy

GTS seats (+Comfort) v Sports seats

If that is the case, i dont know why you would bother paying more for 18 way. I think Doug, like most things Porsche, you pay more for something a little better, but not a lot. They have to make all those fat profits somehow. With the dieselgate issues costing the parent a fortune, their probably th...

collapsible wheel

I am assuming you are querying the need for the 19" spare option. I am lead to believe the 19" spare is only required for ceramic brakes, as the caliper is larger needing more clearance. I have added the 18" spare to my GTS order, which has the larger turbo brakes on the front, and Porsche seem happ...

Porsche Macan S over Jaguar F Pace ??

I think that our impression of almost any car is influenced greatly by the willingness of the dealership to help when things go wrong, and there are issues with all cars from time to time, even Porsches as we have seen here in some of the threads. Their are good and bad dealerships in all marks of v...

Swap my GTS already

Luke, glad to hear your giving the GTS a second chance. I am though rather confused why having specified the almost perfect stealth Macan you are surprised that it doesn't shout and make you smile when you look back at it. I would worry that your Turbo spec is also fairly dark and stealthy so could ...

Insurance Ball Park Figures


Deepest Lincolnshire parked on drive for a pensioner - £300


Hi baldy. Funny that's how I get addressed as well lol
Does the pensioner title help or hinder the quote? Will be joining the ranks in a few weeks now.

Pushing back delivery

A few choices here as I see it. 1. Take the car in June as originally planned. Get a bridging loan from the bank for the few weeks until your funds become available. Banks seem keen to lend as long as you have some collateral and the cost, even at a fairly steep interest rate would be minimal.2. As ...
