I went up yesterday with very little expectations (never ordered a car from factory before) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Instructor was an all round great bloke and really let you control the sessions and how hard you drove the car once trust was established through mutual language etc. Was...

To add and clarify that’s 50% of the total payable, not 50% of the payments due, to voluntary terminate a vehicle. So if a Macan is £90k with let’s assume £10k deposit, £18k interest and £55k GFV (48 months), the VT would value would be £49k, which wouldn’t arrive until approx month 26. Some...

They were last on all regions from what I could see. Who knows, could be that there’s some sort of type approval to be sought for particular to these models. Either way the dealers have cottoned on and are aware there are delays to these models - this particular vehicle was originally sale...

Weirdly, there’s no pricing on the UK configurator, unlike other regions. (Though MY25 for the 4S 2026 isn’t on there either, so who knows…) I just asked about the costs to switch my order from the 4S to the GTS and how it might affect lead times. I still don’t have a build slot for a 4S...

A lot more common in the ICE Macan than any other model from my experience, but agree it’s sacrilege! Main driver for me to look at my order for the EV is the cabin and experience (power and performance gap is likely to close more than ever). Spent a lot of time in a taycan GTS and it’s an...

I wasn’t expecting this for another 12 months. May consider 4S cancelling my order. Bar PTV, I’ve got everything optioned that you’d expect to come on a GTS, so nay nett off any price difference.

That’s interesting. The US has MY26 available for the 4S unlike the UK so that shouldn’t be a problem getting an allocation. However model demand in other regions might be a factor. PTS usually extends lead times and you’ll have about 3-4 weeks of transit time to the East Coast. So if I’m...

I wasn’t aware of that. That said no other model was on my radar and I’d imagine the 4S is the most in demand model as a balance between value and performance. Compounded by 3rd party lease companies placing orders with the same dealer for volume related discounts but stacking out their...

Fair play. One end of the spectrum to the other, I’m sure you won’t regret it. Wonder if the lead times (due to demand) are driving the the fact that a 4 or a turbo are the only MY26 available cars or if there’s some other reason. I’m being told mid Feb from a mid August order for a 4S

That’s quick! What model?

Worth the additional £1200 for the kerb assistance? The reverse features and cross traffic largely useless for me. Also painful that a X3M that I purchased in 2019 had this tech as standard and had gesture controls to rotate, so for it to be drip fed some 6 years later and charged more than...

Appears to be basic inflationary price increases across every option. Ive ordered a 4S and this isn't yet reflected in the configuration for the UK yet so can't be sure of total impact but I imagine my spec will go up circa 2.2% based upon the changes to the 4. Here’s hoping the price...

Shouldn’t have unless the coating was still curing when it occurred. try some autosmart tardis or auto finesse olibetarate and try that. Should be gentle enough not to kill your coating. Use some ceramic top up afterwards; something like auto finesse ceramic or gyeon wet coat just to put some...

Dare I say, I think you got lucky. Lead times went out to 18 months in COVID and never really recovered to those days of 3-4 months. I was expecting 6-9 months and currently expecting to be sub 6, just.

I’m undecided on whether or not to change exterior customer and wheel colour. Been attempting to keep spend under control (already at £22k on options) but imagine build will have to change for the MY26. When did you order a replacement?

Ah ok thanks. I was told the ‘received your dream’ was at the point of allocation not order. Maybe I misunderstood what the dealer was inferring. I’ve been told 6 months for a 4S and they are suggesting mid Feb for delivery as it stands.

What date did you place the order? Appreciate it will vary but interested in the order to allocation lead time?

From a huge BMW fan (almost ordered a g90 M5 instead of the Macan to replace my g82 M4 because of the UK’s tax benefits from it being hybrid), I agree with the futuristic comments. Its design language is like what the 1970’s thought 2030 was going to be. Some great tech and no doubt be a great...

There could be a generic OTA update? Could also be just the fact that’s getting largely confused as something bigger ie the MY26 builds that happens to have some hardware (potentially) and software revisions to permit some of the new features. Just find it difficult to foresee Porsche offering...

I’d agree. I’d imagine we would see MY26 hardware available and landing before we see a software update to suit. I believe there will be a MY26 update to configurators on 7th September in the UK as they are teasing more 911 models. Potentially 992.2 Turbo/S and GT3RS. This is probably where the...
