Thanks to everyone for their comments. I'll have another look at lead times on the petrol, may not be as long as I guessed!
Present: Macan S 2019 (PK1QF9N7), Audi Q3 S-line Quattro
Previous: Maserati Ghibli, 944, 911, Cayman, many Benz & BMW coupes. Sahara Beige Capri with brown vinyl roof. And a Renault R4L. (I'd like another).

With such low mileage a diesel makes little sense, tax excepted.

I was always quoted a long lead time for a petrol S and so I ordered an SD. However I was never really happy with the SD choice ( mileage,dpf issues etc etc) and whilst still being advised of a long lead time by my OPC I cancelled the SD and switched to an S when Nottingham advised the could source an S, to my Spec, in 3 months; my OPC then matched this with a delivery in less than 3 months and ahead of the March tax deadline. So I would advise ignore any lead time advice and press for what you want.

Sorry to hijack this post - I currently drive an Audi RS3 but am looking to change my car to a small SUV and I'm considering the Macan, SQ5 and new RSQ3. However the Porsche for me is top of the pile and like every petrol head, the boyhood dream was to own a Porsche
With the Macan due to my budget is be looking for 2018 model whereas the Audi's will be 2019. I'm also in the same dilemma and want to know the best route on model..
I drive around 8/9k miles a year and it's mainly 20-25 minute drive to work on country lanes but there's times where I'm driving to sites with work and it's motorway driving long distance.. what do people suggest?
I'm a petrol head at heart and love engine noise (hence the 5 pot!) But I've had diesels in the past with BMW 435d and enjoyed the power and noise too..

At your mileage I would probably go GTS. I can honestly say I love my SD. The only place it is lacking is at silly motorway speeds.Maximus_84 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 11, 2020 10:11 pm Sorry to hijack this post - I currently drive an Audi RS3 but am looking to change my car to a small SUV and I'm considering the Macan, SQ5 and new RSQ3.
