Hello! Looking for an SUV to replace my wife's A35 AMG in a few months. Considering a few cars, having had a lot of LR/RR's I am a little put off with their reliability issues which has moved my interest to a Macan or even a Levante.

Take care looking at this forum, there are an incredible number of people who seem to think the Macan is the last word in motoring fun and games, the GTS in particular. Take it with a pinch of salt, they're all biased!
Surely that accolade must belong to the 911 or other such model, however, that will be entirely useless when going to the golf club, tip, garden centre, B&Q or taking the twins to school. That minor niggle and the bias apart, they are largely RIGHT!

Welcome. The Macan will retain a lot more value than the Levante over time. The Macan also has a smaller footprint. Go for a Macan S or above to match the A35 type of performance.
