Which Porsche/s did you drive?

Is your deposit on a facelift Macan? :geek:
I got to drive every one EXCEPT the 911. When it came to our turn it was getting late and the OPC girls, being aware of this, hurried things along a bit. As a result the guy who was in the 911 just sat there. Came blame him, but...! I made a point of mentioning this to Dan! They now owe me one 8-)

Yes, I have a deposit on a facelift but haven’t yet decided whether to commit. I guess it depends on exactly what it has to offer engine wise. I’m certainly not minded to go ahead without seeing and driving the model I would want. But with the residuals being very healthy at present - there are only 9 used petrol S examples on Porsche’s books nationwide and, apparently, very few 16 plate examples were registered at all - I’m very tempted.

I have to say we were mightily impressed with the Cayenne Hybrid. Although far too big for our needs it certainly give me a flavour for, say, a Macan version. The next Macan in about 2022 will be an EV with maybe a hybrid after that so it’s going to be some time yet - if it comes at all - so far too long to hang on to Kitty, I think. With the stage changing radically in the next few years who knows what going to come along.

That GTS does look tasty. Can’t make out if it’s Carmine Red or Guards Red...

Maybe I’ll get that as my loaner when I get Tewkesbury to fit my winter wheels/tyres next month... :lol:

You can rely on me to ask the geeky question! :ugeek: :lol:

Thought it may have been an accidental close up shot of your helicopter seat belt! ;)

Lava Orange - ooh, nice! 8-)

Well, as you know, I have a soft spot for the much-maligned 2.0 Macan, so wouldn’t object to a day in one, darting around the Cotswolds! :D
