Freebies, 4 coffee mugs, 2 insulated mugs.

All new Porsche's should be handed over with a full tank of fuel.

Cheshire Oaks were good on the sales side.

Bolton Porsche were just OK on sales.

Picked up from South Lakes yesterday
Got a lovely Calendar 🤬🤬🤬
Didn’t know what to expect but not that
Great service from there tho so no complaints

Wilmslow were dire, not interested in sales at all, I blame the Cheshire Set for inspiring the sales lack of interest in that it is they who just want to drive the badge by way of it being a bling accessory and they are not actually interested in the dynamics of a Porsche.

Good luck

'Freebies'

No such thing. Some poor sucker somewhere is paying for it. If you got a great deal, it was probably the last guy/next guy that will 'massaged' to provide the 'toys'..............

There is no specified charge listed for fuel. Some folks have not got a full tank, but as stated above, it is a service standard expected by Porsche GB. A post-sale questionnaire, from Porsche GB will check to see that this standard was met. If it wasn’t, that’s a black mark for the OPC.

Clearly, there is no such thing as a free lunch. ;) Porsche pricing, be it car pricing, or servicing, allow for the ‘free’ fuel, the complimentary coffee, pastries, nice loan cars etc...! :P

I purchased my Macan as an approved used car from Porsche Leicester.

Received excellent service from them, pre, during and after sale. No complaints at all.

Also received:

*Porsche coffee mug (lovely)
*Framed picture of my car in a lovely presentation box
*Porsche presentation box for spare key
*Half a tank of fuel (went back for a small repair after a week and received another complimentary full tank of fuel).

In 2020 from Reading:
- Full tank of fuel
- Fancy box for the spare key
- Porsche Experience Day. Brilliant as per other threads
- Regular copies in the post of the Christophorus magazine. Don't find it very interesting and it usually goes quickly into the recycling bin

Er, that's all... No tea mugs

Do OPCs have a "Standard" freebie allocation per model eg all Macan buyers get the same or is it subject to SE's discretion?
