Porsche Macan Forums

Picked her up late yesterday afternoon. Just in time for the rain, the temperatures to plummet and the gritters to put to salt all over the roads. Done a 100 mile or so and she is now filthy. I thought black was hard to keep clean

Had a slight issue on collection. I’d been advised I could take Porsche’s very own drive away 5 day insurance so I went to collect expecting the car to be covered. However on hand over I was told as the car was over their limit of £75k and I could only have it if I took their tracker service. I remember what happened the last time I took their tracker so declined and had to furiously ring around and go on google to obtain quotes (something I was planning to do during my 5 days grace, whilst taking my time). Anyway NFU, who are my current insurer, offered me a £40 rebate and no administrations fees to change the policy over. Result!

What a car to drive. Honestly not just saying this. I’m taking it easy whilst I run her in, but you can feel the willingness and the desire to just let rip. Oh yeah, and the pcm works and haven’t had one error message......yet.

Attached are some “dirty” pictures. I’ll tske more when I can get her clean. I’ll have to act quick as I’ve been advised I cannot drive for 6 weeks after my hip replacement so anyone need a lift

Looking good Smithy, the GTS is a hell of a car. Enjoy.

Your GTS looks awesome! Many congrats! Hopefully this is ‘The One’

P.S. Not to worry you, but I think your rear spoiler is broken.

I've had two of these and they are really awesome cars - enjoy your new toy.

Welcome to the club! Such an awesome car in so many ways and the engine just gets better and better as you put more miles on it. Also think agate suits it very well.

Enjoy it and congratulations

Congrats.

I thrashed a C4GTS around the PEC, an awesome car.

Congrats and what a fantastic car it is

Driven a few but the GTS is perfect

Enjoy.

Thanks guys. Really chuffed. A whole different animal to my Cayenne, but the smile is well & truly back on my face.
Simon, apologies about the deployed spoiler. I was messing with the buttons. I kind of like it stuck out though.

Didn’t think you were a boy-racer Smithy [emoji23]

Ha ha! You’re forgiven, Smithy.

But be prepared for a bit of gentle ribbing if future photos also feature the deployed rear spoiler. Unless the pics are when you’re in motion and the spoiler has risen for aerodynamic reasons, of course!

Cheers,

Simon
