Re: Delivery stop
I was supposed to pick up my new Macan Gen 3 2.0 today but Porsche have issued a delivery stop supposedly due to a software upgrade needed to stop an overheating issue. They have no idea when the software will be ready or when the car can be delivered, anyone else heard of this issue??? Oh Dear! Th...

Re: Bonnet alignment
Thanks resjud that is useful and informative. As this is my “day job” too it’s worth pointing out to other members that there will be potentially other factors in play over and above the sales order contract. The sales of goods act is an example but there are a number of other UK laws which will in...

Re: Bonnet alignment
The fact that the misalignments are in the minority tends to suggest that it is not a factory fault as that would be corrected immediately and jigs recalibrated etc. I can't see a car leaving the factory with such visible faults. Which leaves the possibility that these cases have arisen due to dama...

Spec help and specifics
I am struggling with deciding on a couple of options and I wonder if members with these options could assist with the real world practicalities of them. I am not going to start the BOSE or 18 Way seat debate, these are very individual preferences which you either like/want or don't. My indecisions a...

Re: Gen 3 Macan S 6 weeks in……
It’s strange how much value is being placed on the pre-delivery process for cars when compared to other premium products. If I buy a business class airline ticket rather than an economy ticket on a budget airline, or if I book a two Michelin starred restaurant rather than the local pub, the very li...

Re: Gen 3 Macan S 6 weeks in……
I think that if they did a survey of people who had ordered a Macan and split it between those that had been on the forums and those that hadn't, the Hadn'ts would be much more satisfied with the ordering experience. Before finding this festering pit of angst I would have just accepted the 6 month ...

Re: Gen 3 Macan S 6 weeks in……
Absolutely agree Sweetmeister. I am wavering too what with the non-existent comms from SE (promised test drive not arranged). I might be cancelling my order.Sweetmeister wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 12:12 pm If I’m honest, along with everything else, this is making me think more and more that I shouldn’t be buying one.
