Should THIS be My First Porsche? £45,000 Macan GTS 

Not another dealer visit 🤷🏽‍♂️

Dan is a brilliant salesman. Acts like he’s been the best man at your wedding, but all you really are to him is a number on a spreadsheet. Dresses for success too 👏

Just buy a bloody car ffs. How many ‘shall I?’ videos are you planning on doing, dragging this process out? What is happening to this channel, it used to be one of the best!!!

Not more tyre kicking Paul.

Have the first generation Macan GTS too and it's honestly the greatest. Had a Range Rover Sport before, and the Macan shits on it. It's so reliable, really feels like a sports car despite it size, and sounds great. I wouldn't go for the Turbo though, weirdly it sounds worse. Can't say one bad thing about this car.

Salesman had a quick Line before this vid

Waffler

I’ve had two of these and they are mega! They literally do everything and drive like a sports car

Yes get the Porsche you’ll love it

You surely knew the mileage Paul, the price gave it away even if Dan didn’t tell you which I suspect he did, therefore what was this about? Missed your coverage of Goodwood too, did you get many offers to drive things like Shmee and Mr JWW? Need to inject some life into the channel Paul.....

We all know there's no way you'll be buying this. Surely you can think of something better to do than another dealer visit video?

15:15 perfect doesn't truly exist with a used car, particularly today. You're always at the mercy of original owners' specs, mileage the car has done, wear and tear/blemishes it has picked up along the way etc. Combine all of that with the global new car shortage and hot used car market, it's best to get "perfection" out of your mind and not prance around brilliant purchase options, before they're snapped up by someone else. This Macan, mileage and all, is as perfect as you'll get for the price. To me, letting it go to someone else and you end up with an Audi or something, especially if it ends up being the same money, is a wasted opportunity. Porsche > Audi

If your big focus is depreciation, then don't buy for the next 6-9 months, as prices are going to drop once new cars are more accessible

Just my two pence worth Paul, had many sports hatches, saloons etc and I decided to purchase a Macan GTS in April of this year and sold it 3 months later. Don’t get me wrong it was a lovely looking SUV but after coming from a car if you’re looking for a sports car feel I honestly think you’ll be bored within a couple of months like I was. Heavy on fuel and nothing to really shout about on the performance compared to the competition. Great residuals I can’t deny but it’s just starting to show its age a little internally. If you’re dead set on one then you could always buy my old GTS from Tony, it’s still for sale at Gravelwoods and is a lovely well spec.d example 😁👍

I ended up picking up a facelift C43 estate over this. Even with the particuate filter, it's loud as hell with plenty of pops and crackles thanks to the optional AMG Performance Exhaust. It's practical, comfortable, and really quick. Price is roughly the same as this, but you would get one with lower mileage. Considering that the upcoming replacement will be a 4-cylinder hybrid, it could potentially hold its value fairly well.

As a GTS owner can happily say great all round car! I have the Gun metal grey, red stitching, alcantara seats also! It’s a must and the chrono pack is also a must! Never looked back since! PS exhaust valve button👌🏽😩

I think you'll lose money on that, it'll be worth around 30k with 75k miles. its probably reached its max regarding re-sale value and current mileage. If it had 40k miles id be interested..

I have one and have to say it is one of the best cars I have owned. Not sure that spec is out of the ordinary to be honest for a GTS. When you look for tow bar and TV tuner then they are harder to find. My only input is make sure it has full Porsche service history and price in Porsche warranty.

Currently running a 2018 Macan S and I've just placed an order for the 2022 Macan S. Really looking forward to the new interior. Makes the buttons look haphazard lol

Any updates on the Diavel?

Paul, consider a cpo Macan GTS or Turbo. The cpo allows at least 2 years unlimited mileage plus any balance of factory warranty. Plus you can ask porsche about any financing options they have. Right now the rates in the US are pretty good. I would think UK finance would be competitive.

I'd prefer that interior to a newer one, where everything would be touch screen.

Absolutely LOVE the Macan GTS, go for it man!!👌

SQ5 3.0 TFSI 2018 is a brilliant car, my dad has one and I love it

Ahhhhh Back to Saxton Wonder who blew who this time

Bring the OG R8 back 🔥

What an amazing spec definitely go for it Paul, and it sounds so good!

Wow the content has really dried up. How many times have we seen this tyre kicking video. Poor video

Bud I can tell you I just sold mine last Nov to daily a 992 and frankly the driving experience similarities are staggering. So much so that I’ll be adding one back to the garage. Mega daily and never had a single issue and I ran it up to 90k miles. One thing I’ll say, before you buy any Macan, spend some time in a parking lot at low speed, turning at full lock and feel the way the transfer case responds. If it’s jerky and shuddering, RUN. Macans have now issues with Transfer case failure and out of warranty that’s $$$$$.

I'll buy you a pint if you buy that. That's one in the bag for me.

Man it sucks driving in the UK just no room everything is tight and narrow the streets plus petreo is expensive as well as the cost of living is way higher ... the weather it tough as well ...

Smart buying Paul. The Porsche Macan GTS is a great car, bags of performance and reliable and well built. That looks a great spec too.

The Macan GTS is a great choice mate, but you can also consider the BMW X4M or the Mercedes GLC 43 AMG. I am sure if you are interested in those two cars though.

Compared to other GTS on the market at present this one is a little over priced . Mileage is high plenty of others around similar spec with lower miles - great car I think they are a real all rounder👍

I have a white one, Sound gorgeous, 0-100 is irrelevant anymore! But you need to keep 3000 rpm to get the power out. My new Cayenne Coupe GTS is on the way, that should be better with V8

Yes get it Paul you will really enjoy it. Porsche 's are great. But not as good as a lambo. But still great. 😄😄😄👍👍🤣From Dan. M please can you reply. Thanks

Cayenne GTS here. Love these sport SUV, so versatile and still breaks necks 😎

You know Paul took the locking wheel nut home with him 😃

That would be a great car to add!

My turbo is mental; launch control still puts a smile on my face!

mm nice until a bmw x5m or even an x3m pulls up alongside side you and blows you into the weeds, these GTS Macans way too down on power for my liking

There is a Macan GTS at BCA auctions at Belle vue. Red with 4512 miles in the clock . On a 70 plate . It should be on line tomorrow . I don’t know the reserve price.

Go for it Paul. Don't let it go😄😄😄👍👍👍From Dan. M

8:00 Perfect bang for the sills!

The GTR looks so good. Diamond cut wheels will set it off

I vote to get it, heck I want it for myself but an rsq3 would be nuts

the new Macan came out about 2 years ago, and the new GTS about one and a half champ

You have to take it Paul do it!!! so epic

This is the one, Paul. Nothing better. Not the rsq3 not the SQ5. This is it.

I wish youtube would have an option to horizontally flip the video so I can really pay attention to the video and not to the fact that the wheel is on the wrong side.

Would u consider the stelvio QV

really dnt like porsche other than the gt3 rs but can see this makin a gd daily

What about just enjoying the bloody thing for what it’s meant to be used for

Nice spec go for it they are great daily drivers

Love it Paul - you should go for it!

Any Porsche [insert_model_name] GTS = Excellent

Just go for it.

Would love to see what's happening with your Lamborghini Diavel.

get innnn there Paul 🔥🔥🔥 that with a rap wloud be epic 👌👌 imagine it in british racing green🔥🔥🔥

Is that SHAZAM reception?

mega car, join the brand of no return especially in nuke spec

Honestly I wish you got this cause it’s sooo mad!!

I daily a gen 1 Macan S. Absolute amazing daily. These Macans have the highest residual value of any other vehicle on the road, silicon shortage or not!

In the grand scheme of thing. The mileage isn’t too concerning. If it’s ex company it’s probably lived on a motorway for most of its life & will have been serviced. Check the paperwork! If you’re still concerned ask for money off. Dealerships are generally more concerned with excessively low mileage when it comes to resale. Case in point. I am a disabled driver on Motability & I lease my cars for 3 years, but due to the pandemic had my previous car for 40 months. It was returned with 12,400 miles on the clock, Yes 12,400! I usually get close to that in a year. First thing the garage said “what’s wrong with it?”…. Absolutely nothing! “We might have problems selling this one!” As it was, it was sent to auction and appeared on a forecourt down south for almost £12k plus another 465 miles on the clock.

Get it Paul. You can’t let this car slip ( good luck mate )

“Ugh not this fella again, makes his videos talking about buying cars he never buys”.

4:25 There is no Macan diesel facelift.

Buy it. It’s a lot of car for that money. I don’t think the Macan will depreciate too much.

Is there an actual garage?

How long until you reach one million subscribers?

IMO, this is the right car for you.

Sorry for the offensive hair.. hopefully the car made up for it though 🙏🏼

If u get a new daily build the GTR

I prefer the console with the Buttons rather than the stupid touch screen rubbish

Funny that .... 1 month later the car is still on for sale with Saxton....i thought they get sold within a week Dan....?

Yes! Get the Macan 😄😄

New one out in about 10 days time…..🤫

You need this colour

Dan's clearly a big fan of the Colombian marching powder

IMO buying a used Porsche with that many miles is to risky.

I think cars with physical buttons are actually more desirable than these naff touchscreens.

New Hyundai kona n - really cool looking/brand new/won’t be much content on RU-vid with it so will make sense

Yes. Its a daily driver and its a Porsche.

If so many people like the macan because it handles like a car, shy don't you just get..........a car ?

What is the exact colour name of the car please? Is it vulcano grey metallic?

You should get the macan 2 it changes everything

Just BUY IT!!!!

Just got a 21 macan gts in Miami blue for the wife. Go for the latest one with the 2.9 v6 rs5 engine Paul. So much better then the old 3.0 v6

I love mine I have custom tune straight pipe 480 tq 410hp 🤌 fast little beast sounds amazing

Where’s that cool t-shirt from?

😴

You have to buy this surly.

Rule No1 when buying a used Porsche- don’t be tooooo fussy on the spec

As a first porsche u take a Macan? U r not a car guy

Audi RSQ3 sport back may be the one

Where is Ezekiel n7

All this feels like deja vu….

It's 50k and why even look at it with that mileage?

why don´t you think about and rs3?

What Year is that?
