I hear performance is pretty much the same given additional weight? anyone think its noticeably better?

Great to see EVGuy101 ! So that looks to be around 6 months earlier than they originally estimated?

Exactly, but the monthly amount is taken from gross pay so you effectively save your tax rate (c.20% to c.60%). But you only get this on new cars so second hand does not work!

Interesting, thanks Jin ? I am now being completely ignored by Octopus EVs but have recently spoken to the dealer in Wilmslow who is very friendly and says I'm 4th in line for an 4S so he thinks an allocation should come in Autumn 2023 for a winter delivery - Octopus EV still says January 2025! ?

Looking to see if anyone here has recently placed an order or got an update on existing order for Salary Sacrifice lease deal? We have a spreadsheet to track these and see how the different lease companies compare - some seem to be very proactive and other completely useless !!!! Below is the...

I am in similar position, ordered 4S in Dec 22 via Octopus EVs who quoted 2 years until delivery (but I'm hoping this will come down!) They have said that the financials will only change if Porsche pricing changes and then only by the amount Porsche increase, it will not impact lease figures or...

Are you on the tracker?

Congrats! Is that in line with the dealers estimated delivery timescales? Were you expecting it or do these things come out of the blue?

Loving these stats! Does anyone actually use launch control other than in the few few weeks when the car is new, not sure about others but I find it difficult to find places suitable to test it, in my BMW as it takes around 30 seconds to go through the procedure and often does not engage first...

Great insights - thanks all !!!! Does anyone have performance stats for 4S PB+ VS 4S PB or even the RWD delta figures? I can only find 0-60 which is the same, would be interested to know how this differs in terms of other stats...

Super useful comments, thanks everyone! When placing my order I was torn between RWD and PB+ vs 4S with PB. The cost difference once you factor in air suspension is not actually that big per month but the performance boost looks significant. Anyway that was my logic but with that mind set you...

I realise this might set people off but serious questions... If range is not important (I only need a range of 150 miles) and re-sales value is not important (its on a lease deal) why would I pay almost £5k for the Performance Battery Plus especially when the performance numbers are very...

This thread really needs to be more visible so everyone can update and we can share data - any idea how this can happen?

Wow, do you get regular updates and do you have an ETA?

Got it - thanks very much!

Hey all - does the Sport Chrono Package include the sports sounds? The configurator seems to allow both to be selected at the same time which seems odd if the pack includes the same feature? Sports Chrono Pack = £795 Sports sound = £354 So would seem good value to go for the package rather...

Thanks for the detail, merc will be great and at that price is super value! my monthly costs are in line with your revised taycan costs so I’d say typical market rates at the moment via SS but that is a big increase and I would have done the same as you! At least with the merc you will be able...

Can you switch to a RWD /standard battery to trim the costs - I hear they are still excellent? That's my back up plan anyway!

I suppose we are all exposed to this risk given the increasing costs of finance and the long wait times. I will be checking my Octopus paperwork to see how long they honour the quote, they did warn me that if Porsche increase pricing I'd have to pay that but do not think the financing cost...

Great news! Better lock down that spec...did you have a fat options list? Seems more and more people are seeing that due to cancellations! So your company do salary sacrifice via Select Car Leasing - presumably just the electric cars?
