OPC Courtesy Car?
Discussion
I put my old jalopy in for a service in July and was looking forward to a nice courtesy car given the OPC tax.
I got a very nice Skoda Fabia.
They couldn’t use the excuse they were all booked out as I booked my service months in advice so they came up with the shortage of cars due to current worldwide issues.
What did you get from your OPC at service time?

My US based OPC was reprimanded for using Audis as courtesy cars as they had the Audi dealership next door. When I bought my Cayenne I had some warranty work that ended up taking a couple of weeks. They gave me a Macan GTS and told me to try and break it by driving it as bad as possible.
When our 718 Cayman 2.0 went in for its first service in 2020, we were given a Cayenne e-Hybrid.
When it went in a year later for its first MOT, I got their Cayman GTS 4.0 demo for the day (I didn't specifically ask for it). Naturally I ordered one later that week and we finally collected it in March!

Personally, I think it devalues the exclusivity of the Porsche brand to have a fleet of Porsche courtesy cars.
However, in normal times, they had loads and were given them by Porsche, to boost new registration numbers, for senior staff, demonstrators, loan cars, display cars, etc.
Always felt it it made them look like other mass market manufacturers.
I would be very happy with a VW or Audi. Only exception would be for customers who have bought new and have a long term warranty issue - they should be upgraded in some way.

I always enjoy jumping-in on threads like this, as I smile to myself at being given a Ford Fiesta courtesy car by a Ferrari main dealer (yes that's you Maranello Sales) when I took my lovely 550 in for its annual service. Didn't really bother me much at the time, I must admit. But on reflection it's probably not Maranello customer services finest hour. 

Used to get a Macan which is like driving a bus after a Cayman. Last two times I’ve had a Cayman T which has been interesting to try the PASM vs passive on mine. Not much in it, but the PASM in normal mode is slightly more forgiving on rough roads such that I’d probably consider optioning it on the next one.
