So after a gentle nudge from a new customer today no names mentioned due to data protection!! I've joined some fellow Porsche enthusiasts and no doubt some of my clients/friends too.......Hello and thank for the add- please be gentle!

I joined a Porsche Centre in June 2003 which is based near to a very well known racing circuit, the big one in Northamptonshire!!!

Since 2003 I've seen lots of changes within the brand and quite a few new models to add to the mix, not sure how it will go down within the forum having an SE on here but going forward (as of when I have time) I'd like to join in, help where I can and hey, have a bit of fun along the way.........

Welcome Craig. It will be interesting to learn what you can and can’t share. There is always lots of speculation about model launches, facelifts, future of diesel etc. I guess we always wonder if you guys know what’s going on and can’t say or if you are as clueless as us!?

Welcome.

There are good SEs, there are poor SEs, there are OK SEs and then there are those who work at a certain OPC south of Manchester.

Over the years comments about SEs have generally been favourable.

Very positive experiences from two of the four OPCs near me.

So you should be safe from all but some mild banter.

OK, now the big one.... when are Porsche going to announce the facelifted Macan ?

Welcome Craig

No pressure but how quickly can you get me into a 911 Turbo S Exclusive or a 911R?
Just kidding. 😉

We are a very friendly bunch and look forward to your input and help on the forum 👍
