Hi All!

First time poster, long time lingerer! This website is bang on for Macan owners. I am the proud owner of a Volcano Grey Macan S with pretty much everything except the panoroof (I don't like living in glasshouses!). It comes with 21 inch turbo wheels (colour crest of course), full leather with 18 ways, air suspension, sports chrono, tricky dicky headlights, tinted rear lights, some fangly Porsche Sports Design body kit, sports exhaust in black, BOSE, carbon interior, heated seats. Utterly hooliganish! Just thought I'd say hi!

Hi Wing Commander

You have shamed me into admitting that none have been taken yet! It's brand new (it literally had 15 miles on it), so I haven't really got around to it. Will post when done!

Good stuff, G. Am sure that you won't be disappointed as you put some miles on it.

Looking forward to the pics and your first impressions. :)

Great spec - how did you resist going for the GTS as you must have been close on price? 😉

Well here's the thing Hairymongoose...I used to be the owner of a SD (got rid at 1800 miles). However, I was having issues with it - specifically the whole DPF thing. It was getting good runs etc but I just couldn't get my head around the whole regen thing. Nightmare. So, long story short, I had a very constructive conversation with my Porsche guys (service and sales) and we did a swap over into this petrol S. It was a random dealer spec that was rolling off the production line and they nabbed it, swapped me into it for a slight increase in cost, Swissvax'ed it, even swapped in colour crests for me, gave me a cappuccino with one of those lovely cinnamon biscuits and that was that! It pays to be very courteous, very friendly (and my sales guy was an absolute legend) and they'll move heaven and earth to make you happy.

Anyway...that's why I didn't plump for the GTS! :lol:
