Can change made before lock down delay prod slot?

Definition of insanity = paying £2,808 for flat, non-metallic paint on a new car!


Simon, you choose what you want, it's only a number that makes up the total price but less than £3642 for Mexico Blue Wink

GTS... My spec choices

Well I have PCCB and a lot of other options that I chose rather than post a message asking what everyone else thought. At the end of the day you will get a range of views and opinions so why bother?PCCB will last far longer than steel brakes so given you intend to keep the car a few years then most ...

Dashcam Compatible With LED's?

Does hardwiring affect the warranty in any way? I bought the NextBase hardwiring kit so all I had to do was tuck the cable under the headlining, then behind the A pillar and then remove the left hand fuse cover and plug the supplied fused connector into a spare fuse slot so in short I cannot see how...

Dashcam Compatible With LED's?

I have fitted a front facing NextBase 412GW to my Macan GTS using a hardware kit which took me about 30 minutes to fit. I have also put another hardwire kit in my 911 so I can swap the camera between the two cars. The really great feature of the NextBase camera is that it uses a magnetic connector s...

Impressive MPG!!

This is a Porsche forum right?So amazing MPG is not exactly why you buy one of these machines. As Simon (WingCo) will testify when you take part in a Register Run organised by the 991 Register of the Porsche Club GB achieving over 20 mpg in a 911 usually means you lost the convoy😠 As for the Maca...

Impressive MPG!!

Just to add to my previous post, with over 6k miles in my Macan GTS the average is 23 MPG with lows of 20 and highs of 27, the SD I had for 3 months averaged 34 over 2800 miles. However push a GTS and you will soon see 18 MPG but what a ride😈

winter tyres

It is not only the snow part. Winter tyres operate significantly better than summer tyres below 7 deg C. Summer tyres do not operating optimally below 7 deg C. +1 My Macan GTS has the 21 inch wheels with P Zeros which are brilliant but noticeably harden up at anything below about 10C so I now have ...
