Cayenne S diesel 2016
Discussion
Hi Paul
No I can't have the new pcm4. Car already built, arriving at Sheerness today and delivery next week. I'm not bothered about the Apple play nonsense as I don't use apple products, but touchscreen would have been nice. Anyway, it's not a major issue for me.
I think all these email, texting and app functions should be banned in cars - massive distraction whilst driving. Even using a bluetooth phone on handsfree causes distraction, as all "proper" drivers know.

I got £5k off in total. £2k of which was a 'deposit contribution' but in reality was just a discount. I got two bottles of wine and presentation pack containing the keys and a pic of me with my new car 
I have already exercised my right to withdraw and put it on Oracle finance as the Porsche rate was at 9+%. Also borrowed £14k on credit cards at ~1.5% and used it to make an overpayment on the Oracle agreement which is at 7.1% I think.
Yes the 'old' PCM is touchscreen.
Managed 33mpg on a steady run up the M1 last night. Almost tolerable.

Yes I thought I should have received some sort of presentation pack. When I turned up the car wasnt even cleaned and had to be taken off to be sorted while I was there. No sheet over the car (as it was driven straight from being cleaned into the showroom).I have already exercised my right to withdraw and put it on Oracle finance as the Porsche rate was at 9+%.

Not what I expect when buying a car over 95K!
I know this is a silly thing but I paid for the leather key fob pouch, I assumed (never assume) that I would get one for each key, oh no just one pouch!!
33mpg is getting better, fingers crossed it improves!
Did they say you had to run it in at all? I asked and was told no but im not so sure?

That's a helluva interest rate. Porsche was 6.5 and I got 5.7 from Black Horse.I have already exercised my right to withdraw and put it on Oracle finance as the Porsche rate was at 9+%.

Didn't realise the pcm3 was touchscreen - pleased about that.
Im surprised how the different Porsche Centres differ re the interest rate. Mine offered me 7% which they said was discounted!
I asked for a discount if I took it out and they offered 1k which wasnt enough. Strangely after that the Business Manager was very interested lol
5.7% is good though, I think if I was offered that I may have taken it.
CayenneWKR...I asked about the real time fuel consumption on the PCM but your right it doesnt show. Nearest to it is to reset the trip.

Mmmmm. I'm very tempted to pick up a used V8 diesel (with the new PCM) when the MY2018 finally gets released. I currently drive a 3.0 diesel Cayenne up the M1 (@ 75mph ish) every day and the PCM usually shows 38mpg by the end of the journey. I have seen 41 if I get a clear run.
What sort of driving gets you 33 mpg in the V8? And has it improved any?
