I recently got my old car back from service and an MoT with the recall outstanding. Just make sure they check the condition of the current hoses carefully if driving all that way for holiday.

+1 on this it's 2025, metal roofs are the new glass :)

I've come from a 4S CT on 20" wheels to a Turbo ST with 21" wheels + active ride. So there are a few differences between the cars putting active ride aside, (wheel size, lower ride ST vs CT, J1 vs J1.2 air suspension). I've not hit 200miles yet so still figuring it out, these are my early...

funny you say that, I did want and expect turbonite on the alloys, the configurator is highly misleading, when you go in as turbo model the 21" aeros are shown in turbonite and when you go in as a 4 of 4S they are silver. In discussion with the dealer on this.

Pirellis lasted c. 10k miles on my CT 4S, will be interesting to see if the Hankooks last longer but a harder compound would help explain the extra noise. It is still a very quiet car, just not quite as quiet as my last one.

yes it has these fitted, NF0 rated. https://www.hankooktire.com/uk/en/tire/ion/evo.html

Long press of the small button on the bottom edge of the cruise control stalk deactivates it. Easy to miss the button!

Picked up my new Taycan this week, ST Turbo, stepping up from a 2021 CT 4S. First impressions in no particular order: Fast, really, really fast Leather really good, not quite as soft as Olea but still very nice Turbonite accents on inside really nice, badge and key especially. On outside the...

nice car, remember range will improve when regen braking kicks in around 300 miles

If the spec is right for you wait for the new battery but push them on timing, threaten to cancel the order if they don’t fix quickly. Good luck.

2025 manual now acknowledges excessive tyre wear in range and sport plus modes

I’ve paid a £30k deposit. I’m taking it on PCP, if the insurance becomes impossible, as it pretty much is, then there will be some interesting legal situations.

I’m committed to the car, cannot get out of it. £1k is reasonable, you’ve done well. I use mine for business so the higher mileage kills it but there will be fewer business purchasers based on these insurance costs. Not sure who will buy a Taycan going forward.

I’ve been caught out, my current 4s is a fraction of the price due to lower vehicle value (£50k) and a 3 years old policy. The fact Porsche won’t insure their own cars is a joke/worry for future sales.

good idea but value of the car prohibits gap insurance, most policies are capped at £100k, Ala appears highest at £125k. My car is just north of £150k.

I’ve been trying to arrange insurance for my incoming MY25 Turbo, beware, not even Porsche Insurance will offer cover due to the high performance, high repair costs and mileage over 8k per year. I pointed out the the irony of Porsche branded insurance refusing to insure new Porsche cars to no...

Car looks great ??

looks like KenR got your hoses :giggle:

I also had my car retuned at the weekend with the recall outstanding. Not bothered as the current hoses look fine.

How are you finding the ride/handling and performance vs your previous 4s? Mine arrives next week...
