Does show that the Macans looks are starting to be a bit dated.

Stick a stonking powerful V8 under the bonnet and its a recipe for great straight line performance.

When the article commented on the lack of support in the seats of the TPP then showed images of the fitted 14 ways credibility of the writer went out the window.

No matter what the performance is the cheap and tacky Merc interiors makes the GLC a no go area for me.

Interesting that the Macan now only warrants 3 stars and that they've tested a car you can no longer buy new. I've no doubt the current Macan will always loose out on space comparisons as it always has but for those that have bought one I doubt that was top on our list of requirements. It will also be interesting to see if the result remains the same when the .2 Macan TPP comes out.

What Car (rag) has always given the Macan three stars. They appear to employ the most un 'car' journalists out there. Loads of glaring errors in most of their articles. It is the magazine that puts 'muttering rotters' into the lexicon of the 'motoring writers'.
