I got a phone call from Mid Sussex last week reminding me my Cayenne was due for it's first MOT on March 3rd, so they missed a trick as I haven't received an invite to their new Cayenne launch. but I used the call to tell them I had traded in my Cayenne towards a Conti.

Not sure we're beeing missed out, after all, existing Macan owners are prime suspects for an upgrade to a bigger version. I've had several invites from Reading, but just can't get excited about the Cayenne, so will give it a miss.

Attended the Newcastle launch last night. 3 models under wraps until the big reveal. A black Turbo (good choice!), a white S & a turquoise base model.
Dealership was packed considering the awful weather.
All cars were left hookers & appear to be doing the rounds. The Turbo even had a nasty rip on the drivers seat.
Official launch of the car to the public is March the 24th.
Didn’t get to hear when the dealerships are expecting demonstrators but do know they haven’t had the product launch for the various OPC’s at Silverstone yet.
The car is stunning and that interior 8-)

I went to the Bristol launch. Yes, nice cars, but I remain saddened by Porsche’s move to touch screens and shiny black surfaces everywhere. The launch cars were plastered with greasy finger marks in seconds. Added to that is the inevitable distraction of fiddling with touch screen menus while driving. The launch cars were left hand drive, so most people who are right handed seemed quite happy prodding around the panels but they will find it much more difficult in a right hand drive car.
