Macan driver profile

The question raised by Goron 59 was "what is the macan driver profile?" Based on this forum clearly there are many males in their Phyllosan plus years, a great desire for 911 feel and performance but also with frugal Prius mpg economy. Those who have aspired to the brand but maybe to late to be inv...

Macan driver profile

Goron must be retired like me and have problems sleeping judged by the hours he spends on this Forum. For me the Macan was the first Porsche that made sense for my requirements for a 4 wheel drive car that had a good carrying capacity( but not a Cayenne), was also good for long distance trips (500 ...

Macan driver profile

Macan driver profile

After 9 years of building a business post redundancy and then some wilderness years we figured we deserved a reward. My/our ideal was a medium upmarket performance vehicle with a quality interior. As per Col Lamb anything from the Far East is out because in terms of design, handling, materials etc t...

On line car ordering

Almost everyone can relate a tale about their respective salesperson.
A fool can ask more questions than a wise man can answer.
In that respect my wife certainly feels that I'm a fool following our handover.

GTS or Diesel S

I'm struggling to understand why GTS v Diesel and not GTS v S. Those looking at diesel are or were looking because of economy over performance and noise so why the sudden change?

Dashcam for Porsche Macan 911 Cayenne Panama

Absolutely agree re legislation. And definitely hi-vis clothing and helmet (saved my brother's life a couple of months ago after low speed fall). And it's not just on-road behaviour. Just a couple of days ago Mrs D and I were walking into town and had to flatten ourselves against a garden wall to al...
