Gen 3 orders
The first year road tax is an extra £2,245 for most models. Some sneak in at the slightly lower £1,910. This plus the DVLA registration fee (£55) is added onto whatever the confuserator quotes.

You can get GAP insurance quite a bit cheaper than from the dealers. I used ALA for my last new car purchase (Discovery 5) which was roughly the same value as the Macan and it was about £350 for 3 years.OmniCognateSnr wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 10:38 am Neither of those appear in the configurator. If you are getting finance you should also consider GAP Insurance. This is defiantly worth taking out else you could end up with a nasty bill of your car is written-off or stolen. I think that was about £650 if I remember correctly and lasts for 3 years.
that's a very good point. Thanks, I'll do some digging on the internet when the time comes.Atlantis wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 10:54 amYou can get GAP insurance quite a bit cheaper than from the dealers.

so how is mine showing as £1,910? Is it some kind of thing individual dealers do as an incentive, and they pay the difference?PorscheMack wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 12:54 pmYep.

I have absolutely no idea. Assumed all Porsche dealers would charge the same. Mines £2,245. They did say it went up recently but that could just be the RFL part of it.OmniCognateSnr wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 1:09 pmso how is mine showing as £1,910?
