It does have a nice look to it, but reviews for uncomfortable front seats and not much boot room have put me off a little. Plus I know Porsche service is pretty good, so that's kind of edging it for me.Comment

My biggest problem with Porsche are their dealers.
As for on-line reviews, when it comes to comfort it's best for you to sit in the car, rather than someone else of different corpulence
I was going to suggest the Alfa Stelvio to you, but it's smaller - the size of a Macan, rather than the Cayenne - and probably not dull enough.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Originally posted by woohoo View PostWhat problems have you had with the Porsche dealers, I've only used one but they have been excellent?
Only been in a couple of their showrooms. In one, on a quiet midweek day while the salesmen were at their desks playing solitaire on their computers, the receptionist first asked me why I was there, then asked me if I had an appointment. When I told her I wanted to look at the Macan, she first told me (very condescendingly) that I had mispronounced it, and it should be called M'Cawn. She then said I couldn't have a brochure or look at one without an appointment.
All I wanted to know (initially) was would my dog be able to get in the boot and was it big enough.
If they are that eager to displease for sales of their new cars, then when it comes to resolving issues or servicing, they'll be a nightmare.
I ended up buying an Audi with the same engine in it.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
