Hi N13LXC,

Please don't get the "Range Day" confused with the "Experience Day" both are at Silverstone.

The "Experience Day" is what you get when you have purchased or have a deposit down on a Porsche and it is usually half a day with the model and version you have / or are about to purchase.

The "Range Day" is also half a day and usually for existing customers where you are given an opportunity to drive the cars in the range 911, Panamara, Macan and 718 B & C and are taken off road in the Cayenne with one of the instructors.

Ah! That makes sense! Thanks for the clarification! Look forward to the experience day...one thing i think a lot of premium manufacturers are missing out on.

Ive had 2 RS4’s and no experience day pre delivery for either. I did go on a “test day” for the audi experience at Knockhill in Scotland...that was good fun! Really gives you an appreciation for what these cars can do.

from what I've seen on reviews (of the few that there are) it gets a good write up - apart from people always saying "GTS is plenty"... maybe it is, if you're coming from a 2.0TDi or something... noise, presence and options on the PP sealed it for me...
:lol: I know what you mean, the 'one up bug' is strong in me too

I've spent a lot of time looking for reviews and there really aren't many, and most of the ones available seem to be in northern Finland, somewhere near Santa's house so not ideal. Like you I've crossed fingers and taken the plunge...

I very much doubt you will be disappointed as the PP is like a GTS on steroids and everyone raves about the GTS. Good choice IMO
