New Blue Macan

[AndyC160]

Thanks for all the kind comments. After the long wait I certainly intend to keep the car for quite a few years…. With no intention of going electric in the foreseeable future (who wants to try driving from Hampshire to the wilds of Scotland with an electric car?).

Voodoo looks fantastic on your Macan...it works really well. One of my favourite porsche colours.

I also like that you've not gone for rear privacy glass

Some colours suit it, some don't and I think voodoo looks better without.

Lovely looking car. Can I ask what put you off speccing sports chrono?

I guess that one can be tempted to select almost every option on the list, but Sports Chrono was not important to me - I don’t generally drive fast and on the previous Mercedes I had sports and sports+ and after six years the car always remained in Comfort mode - the Merc had ample acceleration when needed. (Not a great answer, but….)

I guess there are opinions and/or taste, but I’ve never been a fan of privacy glass - only infrequently will I have rear passengers that may need shielding from bright sunlight, and I prefer a lighter airy feel inside the car. But the privacy glass option (and the ACC which I may only rarely use) were the ones that I mulled over for a very long time….and I did have a long time to think about it. Other choices like ext. leather, 18way seats and steering wheel were clear choices.

If you have OCD bad, it’s actually the only way not to have a blank spot in the centre console switch bank. I’d even have ordered the ioniser if it went in that blank spot.

Sorts plus is horrible so always avoid it therefore sc is pointless as you have sport button which is easy to find

I don't think anything is easy to find in the centre without taking your eyes off the road, and the Sports button alone doesn't stiffen the suspension.

If you on a budget then fine, but choosing something like a 'furry' steering wheel over and above SC is nuts!

I'm glad I specified SC on my 22 plate S. Use it regularly

Did you consider going Base?
