This is a very famous Porsche Macan S!

Our good friend Mat Watson conducted his superb review of this very car when at Car buyer.

Best medium size SUV you can buy .. still valid today

Happy bidding everyone

Wow - my old car - was only thinking about this one this morning and wishing I’d not sold it!

Bought it in 2018 as a present to myself post-divorce. Ran it until early 2021. Only sold it as I needed something bigger after my son was born.

A lovely car which apart from a couple of transfer boxes never missed a beat during my ownership.

If it’s still as lovely as when I moved it on (for a dreadful Cayenne GTS) then the next owner will get a corker!

Hi all, here's a link to a CarVertical report from last month (just before I removed my personal reg): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IzkZPd9vHUtkyRMS7...

Let me know if you have any questions.

Wow, thanks for posting - fantastic to see even more history of the car! Someone will indeed get a corker, especially with the genuine/OEM upgrades in the last year. I have absolutely loved it and it will be sorely missed

That's the way it rolls. IMO Macan is a hugely better vehicle to drive than the more expensive Cayenne.

Totally agree. I was originally looking for a Cayenne and have driven a lot of both, but the Macan is hugely underrated and a better driving car in my view.

Hi, please can you confirm if the car has had its transfer case replaced yet? Thanks

Thank you for your question, and thank you for your interest in the listing


Seller has informed us that "the transfer case seems to have been replaced under warranty in Feb 2021 prior to their ownership. At that time it seems it was owned by Spuffington, who has kindly commented above."

Happy bidding

[Spuffington]

I had two transfer cases in my ownership.

First one just after I got it in 2018, but that wasn’t the updated design with the new oil baffles. That was replaced in Feb 2021 with the revised design.

Can’t speak for it after then but understand the updated design was guaranteed for a good number of years (could be anywhere between 3-7yrs). Google is your friend on that one.

Hi how many years have you owned this? Why are you passing it on now? Thanks

[Prefia]

Hi, I got the car as a treat for myself upon turning 40, as it was one of my BOTB dream cars. I'm unfortunately moving it on due to a new job. Thanks,
Mike.

[BraddersA]

Thanks! I see it has not yet met the reserve would you be willing to discuss this if it does not sell?

[Walkers12]

Let me know if you want to discuss selling
