In my case, that is once every 2yrs so I am not prepared to spec it.
New potential owner
Understandable but I would have thought that for £200 it’s worth it just for when you clean and hoover the car. In my case every two to three weeks.

Never had the need in 6+ yrs of Macan ownership. We're just not that dirty!

Most women hate the 18 way seats. Go 14 way, less of a side bolster to hoist bums over. 18 ways make you feel you're sitting in a vice, even on the most relaxed setting. Try both but make sure SHE tries both too or you'll get an ear full!wab172uk wrote: ↑Wed Jan 17, 2024 7:50 am For me, I’d add the spare wheel.
Have a sit in some different seats. The 18 way seats are brilliant.
Also, I’d get rid of the gloss black trim. It is very very shiny and reflects badly. We had a demo car on a sunny day, and my other half spent quite some time with her hand in front of her, stopping the reflection dazzling her.
Did you put in the heated steering wheel?
My wife's very happy with our 18-way seats, which I think are incredibly comfortable.

I think height is more of the issue. I'm 5,8 and found the 18s very annoying on the first car I drove. Then had a demo with 14s and they were just so much easier to jump in and out of. If you're over 6 ft then probably either will work.

Welcome! I really like CRM but my wife didn't - said it was "old man". So we have Gentian Blue, which she picked instead (obviously fortunately I also really like it).
Tips? Having tried a GTS with and without it (and both on 21s), I'd say the Power Steering Plus is a must - it's just unnecessarily heavy without it.
I have the 18 way seats and they are very comfortable, but anyone short (including my wife) hates them, so might go for the 14 ways if doing it again.
Heated steering wheel is one of those "where have you been all my life" options.

Nice reserved spec.
Put my tupence worth in.
If sticking with 8way get the memory function, I use every time I get in and out of the car.
You have the heated screen so I guess the car is parked outside, also get the heated steering wheel, both are great.
IMO if you have privacy glass you don’t need auto dimming, I’ve never even used the manual dimming.
CRM does look fab in sunlight but not so much in dull weather, but hey so does my Gentian Blue!
PS+ is useful for low speed parking and one of the cheapest Porsche options
Spare wheel again not expensive
The above won’t add much to your final price. Enjoy the tinkering before locking down
