We are planning to take the Taycan to France later in the year - I know that we are required to have fluorescent jackets in the event of an accident or breakdown. However, do we also still need to carry spare bulbs/fuses, and if so, what is actually needed for a Taycan?
I couldn’t see anything...
At home I have a 22kw Zappi charger, as we have 3-phase electricity at the house and I can utilise electricity from solar panels.
When I visit my family I am currently reliant on a normal 3pin plug, which is obviously extremely slow.
I’m tempted to get an upgraded socket installed in the...
Has anyone in the UK had the Porsche dashcam (front AND rear) installed in their Taycan recently?
I’m keen to see pictures of the installation and how obtrusive (or otherwise) both cameras are.
I appreciate that at £800 it is expensive compared to other options (Blackvue etc), and with less...
I’ve never had PPF before, and my previous still looked incredible after 20k miles and 7 years, despite only bring protected with a regular ceramic detail once a year.
it does seem that many (most?) people are choosing to have PPF applied to their Taycan.
For those that have done so, did you...
So, my Taycan ST GTS will probably be here in around 6 weeks, which got me thinking, what do I need to investigate now to make me prepared for when it does arrive:
- programming of the individual mode/button
- layout of main dash screens
- settings for Burmester audio
- programming for remote...
I’m currently planning a trip from the UK to just South of Dijon, France.
I know that there are some fast (350kw) Ionity chargers on this route, which I should be able to access at a preferential rate with my Porsche card?
However, I’ve also read about these not always being reliable, so want...
Does anyone have any experience or information about the new Myenergi battery storage system?
https://myenergi.com/libbi/
We had been moving towards a Tesla Powerwall battery storage solution, however these aren’t cheap and availability is very limited - likely to be a long wait.
We will be...
So, accepting all of the problems with a car interior as a location for listening to music, I still want to try and achieve the best possible experience. Who knows if availability might change this, but for now it looks as though my car will have the Burmeister sounds system (plus the acoustic...
While my Taycan ST GTS order seems to be no nearer to being fulfilled, I am at least getting closer to having a garage to put it in, when it eventually arrives.
As the garage will have solar panels, the installer is proposing a Zappi EVSE (22kw, tethered) to take advantage of the 3-phase supply...
.Looking at the specs for the GTS, front brakes are 360mm, whereas rears are 358mm.
I’m confused why Porsche didn’t simply fit the same brakes front and rear - why have such a minute difference in size, meaning a separate part etc?
The Turbo & Turbo S have 410mm (front) and 365mm (rear),
it...
Anyone in the UK had any finance quotes for a Taycan ST GTS - either personal lease or PCP?
just had one from my OPC @6.8% APR - Just wondered if anyone had got better terms from Porsche Finance or could recommend a third party provider with better rates?
Until my order is finally locked down, I’m forever on the Configurator playing with different specifications.
I’m now reviewing the GTS interior package and deciding whether this is really adding £3,287 worth of value for me:
Unless I’m mistaken, the standard GTS interior is Race-tex...
Just wondered if anyone had received any PCP or PCH quotes for the GTS?
Still no examples on the Porsche UK website - I’m interested to see how residuals compare to the 4S and Turbo. Unless I’m mistaken, the finance examples for all Taycan models are currently unavailable?
I spent an hour this morning driving the recently-arrived demonstrator at Porsche Mid-Sussex (where I have ordered my car from).
The demonstrator had the following options:
- Volcano grey
- Red GTS interior (Race-Tex)
- 21” RS Spyder wheels
- Bose
- Panoramic roof
- Head-up display
- Park...
This morning I received an invite to Silverstone for a "bespoke Porsche Driving Experience".
I wonder if things are starting to move with regards progress of Sport Turismo GTS orders? Has anyone else with an ST GTS on order (in the UK) heard anything?
I'm hoping to hear from the dealer sooner...
I've read various articles that suggest that Tesla will (or has already done so) allow other marques to utilise their charging network. There are YouTube videos showing this being done in the Netherlands, but not sure if this is working in the UK yet?
Has anyone done so in the UK and if so...
A recent thread by “Nobody” (https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/feedback-on-gts-st-build.8447/) alerted me to the fact that the GTS already comes with the full Racetex interior as standard, with the GTS logos in Black etc), rather than having to pay £2,820 for the GTS Interior pack.
Now...
Current thinking:

(Panoramic roof will be upgraded to the dimmable version, when available on the Configurator).
Contemplating:
4+1 seats (would be used extremely rarely)
Ambient lighting
Seat ventilation/massage
Other colour choice would be Volcano grey.
Please can someone clarify the practical impact of moving from standard equipment through to Bose through to Burmeister, in terms of books space etc?
I believe that the upgrades come with an additional subwoofer, but would like to understand how much this affects the luggage area?
Also, I’d...
Given a choice of either torque vectoring or rear wheel steer, which do you think would be most beneficial to the way the Taycan drives. Or are neither really necessary:
I’m currently reviewing my spec, but trying to keep the price as low as possible!
