Brand New second hand to me Porsche Macan :)

[87djames]

.. and I couldn't be happier ! I'm surprised by the car coming form a BMW F80 M3 just how punchy it is for a big car and small engine !

That can't be right?
You've lost 150bhp and added 2.5 seconds to 60.

Was the M3 having problems?

not quite right ..... I lost over 250 bhp as my M3 was tuned, however as much as I LOVED the M3 practicality I wasn't reeking the benefits of it plus with then being very targeted by scum bag thief's and scamming insurance companies what used to cost me £700 a year to insure etc went to over £1800 .. some might say its the price you pay but for me it was just another reason to part ways ...... I'll get back into one in years to come maybe as the used G80's prices settle

And yet now you are planning to add non standard and non Porsche parts to a Macan!

You are a glutton for making the Insurance Companies rub their hands with glee when you have to tick the ‘Any Modifications’ box.

My 911’s got loads of mods, declared, and the insurance premium didn’t go up by too much.

4 renewals so far and all good!

Although, like most of us, am a bit nervous about what my next renewal will be!

Seems that many have shopped around at renewal & got a reasonable quote with an alternative insurer.

hi just picked up porsche macan today 2.0t , 2020 model with 14k on the clock , i never test drove the car my brother did however i drove it for the first time and find the steering very heavy also what mpg should i expect in the city ? can anyone please help me with the answers thank you

Hey Nadim. Heavy steering is pretty standard on Porsches. If not already on the spec sheet get the power steering plus upgrade. Costs circa £300 from Porsche Stealerships and makes a difference at low speed. MPG around town is pretty poor on my Macan S (3 litre) at about 14-16mpg. I’m sure your mpg will be a couple more as it’s a 2 litre. Enjoy the car! Don’t worry about mpg!!

Mpg around 25 in town, 30+ on a run, for the 2.0 engine.

each to their own, I'm sure I'm not the only person who's changed things on their Macan nor will I be the last no doubt
