Just received my Porsche activation code so things seem to be progressing

I know also know my vin number so I assume this means the dealer will be in touch soon to arrange pick up

What do you reckon?

Just spoken to my OPC and here's what I've been told:
- There are a lot of Macan S's at Sheerness docks and they won't be released until a CoC is granted
- A shipment of Macan's (not S's) were released earlier this week as the CoC has been granted for them
- The earliest that Porsche are expecting a CoC for the Macan S is END OF AUGUST / EARLY SEPTEMBER!

They told me everything is being done to speed this up, but realistically I should not expect to see my car until September.

Wow! If I ran my company like Porsche I'd be out of business within 6 months...
All car manufacturers knew about WLTP a long time ago, but Porsche choose to do nothing about it until it became a mandatory requirement for deliveries!

I don’t get why the delay now when they were coming through fine before.

whatever the miniscule differences my20 have, has obviously caused it

I'm told it is all to do with the new WLTP standard (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure). See here for details https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worldwide ... _Procedure

Car manufacturers have known about it since 2017, but it becomes a legal requirement in Europe from the 1st September 2019.

Our dealer said ours is classed as MY20 anyway - I’m not sure there are any mechanical options that have changed in that time but I see the configurator has some cosmetic ones, which I would have probably had !

I hope they sort their shite out by the time my 992 is built and sent over !
