With Porsche cars being so common now (at least in the South East), do you find you're treated the same as any other German car (Audi/BMW) in regards to being let out of junctions, and general uncourteous behaviour?

As opposed to say maybe 10-15 years ago when they were treated more like an Aston, or TVR?

Whilst I would agree that Porsches are now mainstream common on most executive housing estates, alongside BMWs, Audis and Mercedes, I don’t think they have ever been considered in the same regard as TVRs eek

The Macans and the Taycans are pretty common, but I wouldn't say that applies to the 911s and Caysters.

I think this is all bks. One, it's difficult to tell a Porsche SUV from one from another marque. And two, I get treated the same regardless of whether I'm driving a MINI Cooper, a 3 Series or a 991. Though I do get thumbs-ups and other signs of approval when I'm in the latter. wink
