Hopefully both cars arrive soon.

I just spoken to the dealer and they said could be up to 3/4 weeks before it arrives in the uk. They said Porsche are sharing a vessel with VW now and it’s delaying things.
Also they is a key shortage so the car will only be supplied with 1 key to start with!!!!
Steering column electric adjustment will not work either as they are waiting for parts to arrive.
I'd also ask if it comes with an engine - just to be sure :shock:

More likely the chip that remembers it's position and sets it up in response to the relevant key?

Make sure it's got a wheel on each corner and count the seats!

I seriously hope that your new Macan does not “hit the water” at any stage of its journey! ;)

maybe a bunch of eco loonies have nailed themselves to the port to stop more 4x4's arriving into the country ;)

In all seriousness, I assume they wait until they have a critical mass of cars to transport. Presumably not economically viable to do it in dribs and drabs.
