That seems to be a coupe style, I assume there’s also a “proper” SUV with a squared off back end, so you can actually load some stuff in it? If not, I’m defo out as it’s not practical for my needs (plus it looks c rap to my eye anyway).
I bet you're already on the configurator with that GTS aren't you finmac said:
I’ve done that loads of times. Thing that stops me is the Petrol fuel consumption - pretty brutal on the test drives I’ve had
Fuel consumption is always brutal on test drives - personally they aren't reflective of my daily driving!
On longer trips (eg back from Goodwood on Sunday evening), I'm seeing about 30mpg from my GTS which doesn't yet have 4k miles on the clock, so still pretty tight. That is actually not nearly as bad as I had been steeling myself for.

I suspect they'll get taxed off the road in the fullness of time, along with everything else.
Electric cars you mean?No, they'll be off the road with a dead battery and insufficient lithium to be able to buy a replacement even if you have the 20k to replace it.
The biggest class action yet to come.

Some members on the Macan forum say they've been quietly told by sales staff that UK sales of the petrol Macan will cease by mid 2024.
