A single 12v panel? I can't see going MPPT with it at all. You don't reduce the amps down the wire and there just isn't much to be done with the excess voltage.
Two panels and you might get better early/ late and reduced light output, will it be enough to justify the cost, especially vs adding a third panel if you can is up to you. I don't have an answer and the general consensus is different everywhere you look. Glean what you can from all of it, learn to understand why the choices were made and apply it all you your unique situation. It's only taken me three years to get to the point I think I know what my end system will be, now the fun starts.
