I guess DPFR is diesel particulate filter.
A space saver spare was an optional extra. If not ordered then the car will have a compressor and tyre repair gunge pack in the panel on the passenger side of the boot. Manual s available online _ Porsche Good To Know App.

You should have 2 keys, printed manual for car, one for radio (I recall), and a service record book. The rest as MY says.

Lovely SUV same era as my ex was.

The (Porsche) dealer should be able to print off the fit list from the VIN number, this should list features on it, as the ads are a bit vague or incomplete . The standard and option fits are confusing :(

Hope you are enjoying it :D

Cheers for answer. I just bought from range rover dealer in Swindon. After I bought it just found another one cheaperπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. They give me 1 year warranty with it. Next service at 11/20. Has 2 keys with some flat square plastic, I don't know what it for. But haven't found tyre repair kits yet. And ask them for history records. Thay said they looking for it for me on Monday.

The flat square is probably the tracker device - no one seems to use them, there is probably an expensive yearly charge.
Someone on the forum may be able to point you to a VIN decoder but they tend to be American :? specs

Went to Porsche Swindon. Customer service and guy from service department was great. Manage to get full history of my car and show me what option I has with my car. Also tell me my car still with Porsche warranty till November. And it's up to me to get extended warranty with Porsche or carry on with warranty from range rover (where I bought the car from) and then I can come get new warranty after 1 year finish. Only Β£80 different.
So far so good with my macan. Oh,,, I try to polish my car but I can not get it smoothness. The car it shiny but surface still not smooth. I'm not sure what cause, maybe car been on the forecourt for long time or previous owner never polish it.πŸ˜–πŸ˜–πŸ˜–

Use a clay bar to get the paintwork smooth.
