Re: Insurance

the most GA will cover a car for is £70k, my car cost a bit more than that. Would I be right in saying the insurance company would only pay market value in the event of a claim anyway and not the forecourt price? Also interested to know: could I insure the car for £70k through an insurer even thoug...

Re: Macan GTS Order Placed - opinions please

Comfort access was initially one of my must have’s too……until I found out it’s not a push start button ignition but more like a dummy key in the ignition, on that basis I didn’t think it was worth the extra money. [/quote] You can remove the permanent dummy key and then use the normal car shaped ke...

Re: Macans are about to be uninsurable!

Mark McCann has a part2 to his video out. Also worth a watch. https://youtu.be/W9cZmJHOuK0?si=TfPYsBsTMIn7i8Rm I fitted a security device on my Disco4 a few years back. I bought a cheap OBD port off ebay for £2 and substituted it for the real one which i relocated elsewhere. So I did have to remove ...

Re: Yellow dots on various parts of the engine - why?

The “buyer” may also have been a freelance car collector who does a basic check over the car, rather than someone with detailed marque knowledge.

I am due to collect my new Gen 3 S tomorrow. Just notice from the Porsche Connect App that the next oil service will be in 12 months or at 10k miles, but next inspection/service will be in 24 months or at 20k miles. Is the oil change interval at 12months correct? Personally I wouldn’t leave an oil ...
