    How long does it take for the car to be delivered to the dealer once its in the UK?

    Mine rolled off the transport today - 12 days from port (Sheerness). Maybe 13, depending on when they unloaded as the boat docked after sunset. Delivery Friday, so dealers can turn it around pretty fast.

    Taycan the (front) tyre killer!

    Yeah I'm sure there was some smoke blown. Still, they weren't any more money (and had to be ordered in, so it's not like they were trying to shift old stock) and I did do due diligence at the time. They're at least advertised as a harder wearing performance tyre. That might also be smoke and...

    What are your thoughts on the Porsche security location tracker?

    It's reasonably priced I think, but to be honest I always suspect that dealer options aren't as good as third party for things like this (see also: dashcams). Would anyone recommend the OEM tracker, or a better third party solution? I live in a safe area and the keys will be in an RF box, so it...

    Taycan the (front) tyre killer!

    I haven't got my Taycan yet (FRIDAY!), but my '22 Countryman JCW chewed its Pirelli fronts in 7000 miles - and they blamed my driving style too! And that's with 300bhp. Took it to a specialist 3rd party tyre place rather than the dealer and they basically said Pirellis haven't been up to the...

    Oh wow, okay. I’ll stay on our Nigel’s back. Is it just me or are they all called Nigel? ?

    Mid Sussex. He says they often get transports turn up unannounced, but he says a lot of things. Tuesday sounds like the last day it could arrive and be turned around for Christmas then if yours took 3 days. God this is tight - and I've been such a good boy this year, PorscheSanta.

    Ours has been 9 days. MY SA was saying yesterday it's unusual, and he wouldn't be surprised if it's been scanned and is on its way but the system hasn't updated. Good luck!

    Good luck. Do you know how long it took from landing to being scanned at the port?

    Ah, hoping you can have it Christmas Eve. Have you had a number plate yet? I'm thinking ours will probably be after Christmas, but have everything crossed.

    Thanks! Hoping for a quick turnaround too if it gets there. Enjoy the thaw!
