Hi all,

Yes Tewkesbury was the dealer. As promised after a weeks driving and a clean, here’s the pictures.

Is it worthwhile adding front mud/ splatter guards to stop the sides getting covered? I’m not worried about the rear, the following cars can have that!

It did clean really easily with the water beading really well. I need to polish and wax my Golf now!

Well that was an interesting afternoon! On the way home when ‘power steering failure’ . I could still drive but OMG was it heavy. The nice man from the AA arrived put it on the back of his lorry and took it off to OPC. Not a great start after 16 days of ownership and a mere 500 miles.

Well after 16 days, 510 miles we have rejected our Macan. OPC have been great in helping us with sorting it all out but confidence has been completely lost in this car for us.

Have to now decide what to do for our next one which will be after the lockdown has been lifted.

Sorry to hear. Had the OPC sorted the problem and did they tell you what it was? Did they need to replace the power steering unit?

Sorry to hear that too, you’ve been very unlucky. Hopefully it hasn’t tarnished your feelings for the brand and that your OPC delivers accordingly.
