Hey Nick,

Thanks for the welcome. Ha! I've already been through the whole manual online a couple of weeks ago. :)

Specs and pictures to come - I'm waiting for my friend to wake up in the UK and I'll post them all.

I'm an anorak myself, so hope I'll fit in with everyone here. :)

Hey Guys... thanks again for the friendly reception.

So happy I went for this over the M2 or the F430 I was considering. I have to drive it yet, arrive in the UK on the 16th and it will be waiting for me at the airport.

Any idea how I can get the build code? I have the VIN number. There used to be a link I found on the web to a porsche dealer site that you could ammend with your VIN - but it doesn't work any more. :|

Here's some pics. :D

Very smart. Congrats! :)

Maybe try contacting a Porsche dealership near you when you are in the UK for the build code/spec?

:) Welcome to friendly Macan Forums.

If you can find out which was the original supplying Porsche dealer, and as its a recent build / current model, then they should be able to provide a full list of the OE options fitted.

As Wing Commander says, a friendly local dealer should be able to help if you give them the registration number. This may be the dealer that you choose to use for service work etc. in future :idea:
