Hello Everyone!

Another Newbie joins the forum.........

After only a little thought I convinced myself it was a very sensible decision to buy a new GTS from those nice guys at OPC Perth and avoid the risk of those pesky tariffs people keep talking about!!

Looking great in Sapphire Blue with a few essential extras and, admittedly, quite a few totally frivolous ones too!!

Is a new car an acceptable excuse for long aimless trips on country roads or must I wait until restrictions are eased??!! :lol: :lol:

Welcome to the forum....your GTS is looking great....and, if I was you, I’d definitely be taking a few trips out in it over the holiday period 👍👍

Gotta love a bit of blue. And isn't every trip in a Macan essential ;)

Welcome to the forum and the 2020 GTS sub-section. The car just gets so much better once it's run in which will force you to take it out on as many journeys as you can.

Out of interest, is that a set of winter wheels you've got on the car?

Hi,

Re winter wheels, yes 20” shod with Michelin Tour HP which I’ve found to be excellent in the past. Still “N” rated but no longer qualify as winter / all-season tyres under the new and stricter European rules. However, they’re still great in winter conditions and, based on the forecast for the coming days, they’re in for an early trial 🙂❄️☃️

Regards,
Philip
