When I borrowed a Macan for 24 hours I think it was £500 excess

No real issues, that I can report, in the first three weeks. Stop start and glide mode take a little getting used to, but in the past 1400 miles it has been a pleasureClap.
Off subject, if you check the insurance slip you will see the excess is £1000Unhappy

Great Car to drive and look at but have a few niggles with my new turbo:

1. Bonnet - on one side is not entirely flush with the lights, maybe 2mm out

2. rear door aluminium trim not stuck on properly

3. tiny scuff on rear leather seat, not sure whether it was there when I picked up!

As you can see I'm a bit OCD therefore will be a pain for my OPC.

The bonnet might be a quick easy fix to do yourself ( if you want to that is) there are probably two rubber stops on either side which are threaded; wind in or out to adjust the height - or leave it to the dealer.....

Had the rattles on the overnight test drive last week - from both driver and passenger sides! Clearly a QC issue rather than just a random flaw.

The biggest issue I have is the total randomness of the bloody stop start engine pain in the arse ... absolutely hate it with a passion. Wish there was someway of permanently disabling the cocking thing!

It even switches the engine off when stopping to reverse into a parking bay .... evil little sod it is.

My lad's Polo ( which is what I'm currently driving - thanks J) is the same. The reflex is " start engine, disable stop start, leave driveway"
I know this then disables glide mode in the Macan, but at the moment I think I will live with that!
