Re: Would you risk buying click and collect.

I rejected our car due to some stone chipping and a mark on the driver's door handle that had clearly been caught with a diamond ring or similar. Quick trip to the body shop, it was like new - which he'd told me it was over the phone. It is frustrating when they do this. I 'love' the fluff they put...

Re: Would you risk buying click and collect.

I bought my GTS unseen from OPC Chester. They sent a few photos and a video . I had never even sat in a Macan let alone drive an automatic for an extended period (except 2 weeks in the US) !! All good though :) I definitely overthink things :oops: On a separate note, general question for everyone, ...

Re: Would you risk buying click and collect.

Click and collect seems to be the new way of buying a car.... Depends on how "fussy" you are. A basically new car should be fine but I wouldn't be so keen with an older car. People's idea of "prestine" can vary from "as new" to not much fag ash on the seats :roll: :rol...

Re: Would you risk buying click and collect.

Regarding your point on the 18 way seats; my GTS has them and I love them. The range of adjustments seems almost infinite and I find them super comfortable. Some say that the side bolster is obstructive when getting in or out; I don't find that at all. I'm 5' 11" and normal build, incidentally...

Re: Would you risk buying click and collect.

I bought my Macan S unseen and without a test drive during the last lockdown, just saw a few photos from the OPC, however, I had test driven a 2.0 litre Macan at my local OPC after the 1st lockdown, so at least I had an idea of how one drove, and whether I liked it or not! I’m pleased to say that m...

Re: Media/music questions.

I never used the jukebox on mine - seemed abut if a faff.... Just drag and drop your i-tunes backup folder off your PC onto an SD card; all the albums are retained in order and complete with the artwork! When you update your i-tunes just copy over the SD card. Works fine on my 992 PCM4 too. Cool, t...

Re: Media/music questions.

I think if you upload to the onboard hard drive, known as Jukebox" it reduces the quality to a compressed mp3. It's only 10GB so not a lot of room either. I too use a 128GB SD card and my music is sampled in FLAC format. Sounds very good and I don't have Bose. If you don't have CARPLAY you may...

Would you risk buying click and collect.

I have agreed a deal on a used Macan Turbo, and for the most part am safe in the knowledge that the car will be in tip top condition as I will be buying from an Authorised Porsche Centre. However, I have never sat in the Macan before and have read that some people don't like the 18 way seats and it ...

Re: Media/music questions.

Thanks for the replies guys (sorry I don't know how to multiquote on this forum). I didn't realise that the Macan/PCM had a hard drive, that's good to know.
