Where? I look quite regularly and haven’t seen any? They all still look ridiculously overpriced to me. The Porsche used car finder. You can save a search and set up alerts. Just had a quick look, the GTS has gone and so has the S I looked at, no surprise I suppose. I'm sure you do believe me..... but just in case, here is another S, which is just under 6 months old and is list price. The other S was cheaper / lower spec and available now, this one isn't until October. finder.porsche.com/gb/en-GB/details/porsche-macan-s-preowned-YV2X59Edit: They've dropped full fat (Matrix) LED headlights from the configurator for the Macan, hopefully they are still on your order. I think that would be a deal breaker for me, it's the one thing that annoys me about the Golf (they were standard from 2019MY) every time I drive it in the dark. I know its a boring thing to say but 80K for a Macan S just looks mad expensive. I know I'm way out of reality but think that should be 20 grand cheaper at least.

Its a shame the back straight wasn't another 100metres longer. Seems everyone struggled to follow through the earlier corners which dropped them too far back for DRS to be effective on the straight.

Agreed with all that, Charles and Ferrari aren't looking like a great combo currently. If Ferrari don't balls it then the drivers will. Leclercs errors seem to show what a great job Max did last year where he had all that pressure but made so few driving errors. Unforced not planned before everybody says Brazil.
Hamilton certainly appears to have woken up this year. Russell was dominated in Qualifying, those 10th of a seconds are creeping away and they don't want to become a habit. Russell needs a good display next week but Hungary is a bit of a Lewis track so good luck with that.
Always good to see Alonso doing well. Its a problem Alpine didn't expect to have. On current form you'd have to keep him in the car for next year.

I made a meal of that one. The German disc in the window took me down the wrong road. Got it on the fourth attempt but took 5 goes to give them the full model name.

I would pay the extra in my car let alone in an M5 so yes go for the PS4S. Although as a heads up the tyre of the moment is by all accounts the Conti Sport Contact 7

I don’t like AC, I’ll use it to drop the temp in a room by a few degrees but can’t sleep with it on. We’re just back from Crete and didn’t use it, just turned off the lights and opened the windows. We got home last night and just slept with the windows open as usual. No chance. If I'm in Greece I've got all the units in the villa at 18 degrees and everything is shut tight. The size of the moths is enough to put me off opening the window. I'm in the office today in shorts and T-short enjoying the cool temps with the air con flowing and go outside every hour to remind me its 40degrees. Think a pint at lunch in a beer garden somewhere will be on the cards. Great time of year. We were sat in the garden last night till 10. Had a bbq and enjoyed a bottle of chilled Red wine ( wine buffs don't hate me)

Liking all of those options Merc fabulous interior but those alloys are rather horrid Alfa - Hell yes BMW - best sensible all rounder - trying to get the missus into one of these but she doesn't want to spend all her money on fuel and wants a hybrid.
Loving the Alpina you posted earlier but what does the D3 give you over a M340d? Or is it just a posher version. I know Jeff's going to kill me for saying that. Genuine question

I see how it works with technology like the upgraded nav, heated seats etc that can be done through the touch screen but you can't get upgraded alloys on a subscription basis so it seems a bit half thought out. Having said that it kind of makes sense. If you buy your cars through PCP you have to spend 10 a month on these options anyway and if its things like heated seats and steering wheels they are redundant for 8 months of the year so why pay for them.

There is a 992 in that colour which passes the office most days and I think it looks stunning. It would be my choice of colour. It’s not clear in picture what a great colour it is. It’s a PTS colour now on the 911 Just get your name down for one Martin. Gives you 2 years to make the man maths work

Got the correct make in 3 and knew what it was but couldn't remember the name. Wasn't exactly a big seller if memory serves.

Never even seen one, sounds like great tech but just think of the data capture. The supermarkets do need new competition to keep them fresh.

I've never been a fan of the looks but agreed they are decent value. I'd always take the LC500 if given the choice however or even an M5 which are far more desirable

Well I did think that the resignations of two high profile positions would be enough to force his arm but it seems that Bozza is more then prepared to go down with the sinking ship. Seems Zahawi is putting career ahaead of the country.
