This purchase is probably one of their more productive ones, they could sell it on the 2nd hand market for+10% of the purchase price the day they receive the car? That could pay the salary of a nurse for a year. There you go, just solved the NHS funding ‘crisis’ …become a franchised Porsche...

Wow!! That is the longest I’ve heard and I follow numerous forums around the world!. Something doesn’t sound right about the order, are you sure NHS Fleet Solutions actually submitted your order and paid the £5k deposit back in Oct 2020??

Join the club. I got stage 2 (of 5 on the APP) invitation this morning but so far haven't locked in my options. From what I can gather the idea is to do the track day, then lock in options once you've had a chance to try them on a real car??

How long did it take from the first comms in Phase 1 to the end of Phase 5? In the UK Phase 2 is a track day at Silverstone race circuit, but I’ve noticed in some countries they only have 4 Phases as they don’t have a track day, something which I won’t be attending anyway

Interesting - I didn’t know that! I use the My Porsche app constantly with my hybrid Cayenne for checking the battery charge status, to preheating plus numerous other functions. The UAE is kinda weird for stuff like that

Nice! Sadly I don't yet have a production slot and I ordered 6th September!! I've received the email saying production will start shortly, but according to my dealer 'shortly' can mean 3 months. Recently came back from holiday in Dubai and there aren't many Taycans there, in fact I don't think I...

Hmm I wish the crappy valuation he gave me was the opposite of what will happen when it comes to PXing it ! It was lower than anywhere else!

I was with my dealer earlier this week for a valuation of my Cayenne e-Hybrid for PX towards my on order Taycan. He said the shortage of chips looks like possibly getting worse which helps to keep 2nd hand values high. WBAny Car has actually INCREASED my Cayenne’s value by £1k in the last month...

Very pretty. Similar colours to mine both inside and out, except my Missions E’s have silver struts and rim. Today - finally after 5 months got confirmation from factory that production’s about to start. Based on other comments I reckon it’s another 4-6 weeks to delivery, so right in middle of a...

300 days - Wow!! Thats about the longest I've ever heard between order and delivery anywhere for a Tacan of any type! I ordered early Sept, so following that logic I should expect delivery in June ? Considering I was first told delivery would be Jan/Feb say no more ?

Yeah - the lights the lights every time. Consider yourself lucky? Wow!! A stunner! I hope you slept in it last night Iain!? Remind me when you put down the deposit?

You are correct - see post #51 in which I confess to now having ordered both MissionE’s and full leather. I’ll be ok, I’ll just skip meals 3 days a week for a few months.

Thank you all for the (split 50/50) advice re decision between Mission E’s or full leather. I’ve just updated my options to include both full leather and Mission E’s? Money be damned, you only live once (unless they have Taycans in the afterlife??)

Believe it or not when I ordered a Boxster way back in 2004 they offered me the chance of going to do a factory collection which would have included seeing some of the final production. Here’s the thing…. I would have had to pay my own travel costs AND pay Porsche for the privilege of collecting...

Looks a beauty esp with body kit! However the biggest mistake you’ve made is calling it Percy! In the UK the most famous Percy is a pig and it doesn’t look anything like a pig?

Thanks - good info!! I better get to it. At the mo on my budget it’s a choice of full leather and Taycan excl wheels or mission E’s and no full leather

You ordered in July and expect del 20-25 Feb. I’m curious to know when you locked in your options?? I ordered start of Sept so if there’s any consistency in the process (doubtful) I should be getting my del in April, but I change my mind about options every day!! I need to start preparing...

The communication from start to finish in this whole order process has been pathetic! The only exception was the smiley happy face of the salesman when I first walked in and placed the order and the original comms re deposit etc. Put my deposit down 6th Sept and was told delivery could be...

That’s similar to what I was quoted when I phoned to enquire about getting a charger installed (haven’t rec my car yet). We’re new to Octopus having been adopted by them when Avro went bust. So far can’t fault their customer service. FYI there are experiments going on around UK to allow you to...

I find SC really useful on my Cayenne plug in hybrid! Changing to each of the 4 settings manual is possible but a pain and fiddly. I wasn’t planing on speccing it on the Taycan and reading this forum hasn’t changed my mind
