If it was me, budget allowing, I'd go for the PP.

Difference between the two Volcano Greys would only be about £2k after you retro-fit a heated steering wheel and it's done 10k less miles.

What age/plate are the PP and younger Turbo?

I'd take the PP. I think it will hold its value better from a rarity point of view.

i've seen pretty much everything in the wild in London including a 918 and a 911R but still not seen one of those.

If it was me I would choose based on the car configuration rather than the small performance difference.

In reality on the road in real world driving you would probably not notice that much difference between the two variants.

If say the standard Turbo is cheaper and configured better you could always get it chipped to give an extra 50-60bhp.

Could not agree any more, so well said sir!!

Just do not understand why anyone would pay appreciably more a Turbo PP over any Turbo model. We're about to dive back into Macan ownership and a mega spec Turbo is where we'll be shortly if all goes to plan.

One more thing about the PSE for anyone considering it.

As standard all Macans have the gate valves open on starting the car so you do get the growl and burble which continues as you drive away, the valves shut after you have been moving for a few seconds.

Floor the throttle especially in a non PSE Turbo and you get a pleasing growl, granted its not as loud as PSE but it still sounds good.

If funds are limited since PSE is c£1600 for that money you can quite a few other goodies.

Since PSE is included as standard in the GTS and T PP it is that fact that put me off buying a T PP since I knew it would not be used by myself.

To each their own though.
