An MG, McLaren (or two) and Aston and your are worried about the warranty on a posh VW, probably the most reliable of the lot.

Take the tow bar off, stick it on the SL and Job done ! ;) ;) :mrgreen:

Hahaha, actually the most reliable of the lot have been the two McLaren's had the red 650 Spider for 3 1/2 years and never missed a beat and done a lot of miles and some awesome trips with the car. It's just the Bait Clicking y YouTubers who love to paint a different picture ;) Will never sell them they get into your soul.

Good idea. Possibly a very interesting thread!

Porsche should welcome modified cars with open arms. Not so much tow bars, but I’m sure they could learn a thing or two from a high millage Litchfield conversion, what works what fails etc.

To show you how ridiculous Porsche's stance is. My McLaren 650 Spider has an exhaust from the Cat backwards which I designed myself and had built by the company that does my race car exhausts all with their blessing and they were fine with it having a Warranty on the car. Local dealership really like the look and the noise of it ;)

As for Tow Bars, as someone else said, after all a Macan is just a posh VW ;) so what is all the fuss about. But thanks guys for all the pointers, I'm actually not going to bother and keep my money in my pocket, Porsche will just have to go without, that'll be one less meal out for all the Execs. :D :D :D I've always believed "Rules are for the obedience of Fools & the Guidance of Wise men"

Look forward to your new Thread Alfanut :?:

Don’t McLaren want a pre and lost track day service each time ?

My mate had the rear screen fly out down the dual carriageway - it was an early one !

so just remove it, get the warranty and put it back on?
