Excellent!

Quick rinse or full wash using two bucket method...?

My own “driveway” is 300 Yrds of potholed mucky crap so it’s a look I am used to.

I sympathise as I too live down a similar track, albeit the council call it a road. Macan does not seem to like dirty roads and mud flaps would seem to be the answer although nobody has mud flaps on a Porsche( why not?). Indeed, few cars today seem to have mud flaps; probably all about looks rather than practicality although personally I don’t mind the look. I just don’t fancy upsetting the integrity of the wheel arch and any excuse to give her a wash

Plenty of us have mudflats on our Macans, why not, it's your car so do what you fancy. They do help with splashes, dirty roads and stone chipping.

Can you recommend a set that don’t require drilling the wheel arch/trim? Thanks

I bought mine from EBay. All they needed was one small extra hole on the fronts into the plastic trim. They are a good fit even though they came from China. The rear ones have Macan written on them.
