Nick Murray has bought himself a Mk2 Macan S and is promising future road test videos and a side-by-side comparison with a Mk1 Macan S to highlight the changes:

OK 250+ views and no comments so I will ask the question.

So who is Nick Murray and why should we be interested in his videos?

Fairly prolific YouTuber with a particular interest in Porsche (and helicopters!). His original Macan review was pretty enthusiastic:

Yes, I saw this video for the Mk2 version. His spec, for me anyway, seem to be purely cosmetic. That would not, in a month of Sundays, be my ideal spec for a Macan...regardless of the discount!

He's been mentioned on here a few times so I thought I'd share and people can make their own mind up as to whether he's of interest or not.
He's a big fan of the Macan (& Porsche in general) and does some in depth videos on Confuserator options - which a lot of people seem to need advice on

Thanks for that guys.

I do not bother to much with reviews after all how can some of them be even remotely realistic if a Macan is not top of the list.

The only cars that come close to a Macan in terms of performance is the Alfa and Merc but who in their right mind would buy either, yes the Merc may have a great V8 but still it is dire to look at and the Alfa is drop dead gorgeous but it is an Alfa.

Far better to get out there and test drive and make up your own mind.

Absolutely agree that test driving is the only way to really appreciate if a car may be right for you. Looking at photos and YouTube videos, I admit to being distinctly underwhelmed by the Macan interior but once I saw it in reality I though it was fabulous (and still do). And of course I had no idea how it drove until I took one out for an extended test drive. Then I was hooked! :D

Looking forward to his review of the options. The 911 was fun (if long)

He has had some seriously bad luck with both of his 911s recently.
