I'd never have thought that a base Cayenne Turbo was over £30k more than a base Macan Turbo. Crikey.

Could I ask what you got for your turbo (age and mileage too) please? A private message would be good if you'd prefer not to share. Thank you.

I don’t mind sharing.

I got a wbac offer of £40k. Ouch.
I was going to advertise for £49,950 privately.
Got £47k as a trade in from OPC. Close enough to what I thought I would be offered privately to make me trade her. Dealer held price for a month too.
Autotrader advised me to list for £47,400.

On forecourt for £56k with 28,250 miles on a 15 plate.

Just shows how hard it is to legislate for a heavily optioned car.

Planning to sell the wife’s old Lexus, that I am currently running around in, when my Cayenne is ready. That is light on options so I am interested to see what wbac offer on that. Might also try Tootle as well as a private add.
I have all that fun to come.

Rule of thumb seems to be around £7K.

Problem OPC's will have shortly is no new cars for two months (?) so most are trying to get their approved stock levels up to get continued income. My OPC currently have twenty 911's which is more than usual.
So I guess a good time to trade then?
Interesting point. I never considered that

Guess that might be true if you were considering moving away from Macan, but staying with Porsche. But otherwise it's not really an option, bearing in mind the pending Macan facelift
