    Porsche BodyCare

    I’ve had paint correction and ceramic coating on cars this age before and it’s 100% worth doing IMO

    Facelift 2024 Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo spied going flat out on the Nurburgring

    If that's the final design, the value of our cars is about to rise :CWL:

    911 to Taycan?

    The main question you need to answer is: why do you want to switch? 4 properly usable seats and a decent boot? A calmer and more luxurious journey quality? The Taycan is Perfect. However, a 911 is a great Sports car and is visceral and noisy and maybe more fun, albeit this isn’t to say the...

    Efficiency now that weather is warmer

    Turbo ST on 21’s. Depending on trip and right foot, I’m getting 2.5-2.8. When it rises above 15°C I think I’ll hit 3 on longer journeys. The wheels are definitely a factor as I saw 2.9 in February in fairly low temps

    Funny little things that drive me crazy | diva safe zone

    Ironic that I'm adding to this thread now, as it's beautiful outside, but my beef is that the rear hatch (ST), lets water into the actual boot when you open it and the boot hatch is wet. Only on one side on my car. Very irritating. Luckily I have a boot liner, but still, something surely easily...

    Skid Risk Warning

    Old thread I know, but I got this after an enthusiastic jaunt off of some lights on a nice quiet dual carriageway today. A bit alarming as it was dry and sunny!

    HAGERTY's Taycan vs 911 review - by Henry Catchpole

    Exactly this. I was on some semi-rural roundabouts today with some lads in their hot hatch on my arse trying to follow and without even trying, certainly not using acceleration I whipped around 2 roundabouts with absolute precision (within my limited ability), and they just blundered through...

    Anyone averaging around 209 miles on 85% charge on Taycan Turbo?

    my range mode pops up with “60 Mph limit” on it. I am guessing this is changed in the menu’s? I could spend half a day looking, or does someone here know the answer?

    Anyone averaging around 209 miles on 85% charge on Taycan Turbo?

    Been about 11°C ish this week. Got 198 on 85% when I charged overnight. Journey today with mixed driving but a good motorway trip, was 2.9 mi/kWh

    Removing Model Badge

    Quite. It's a personal choice. I think some people worry about which badge they have on their car more than others, though.

    Removing Model Badge

    I agree with those on de-badging. I bought a car to enjoy it myself, not impress people. I de-badged mine and I'd definitely do it again. I prefer that someone who doesn't 'know', stays ignorant. It's also more fun that way with the look on faces - if you can still see them in the rear-view ;)

    Pot holes 1,000s of 'em

    Hampshire/Berkshire is appalling too. The roads are generally appalling and I find myself constantly swerving to avoid them

    First few days of ownership...

    I don’t bother with pre-conditioning so much as it requires plugging in before every trip and I only charge 1-2 a week. But in winter for early trips the cabin warming is a great option. With my turbo I’ve found it got rapidly more efficient once regen braking kicked in. Also requires a lot of...

    Who charges their Taycan to 100% SoC at every charge

    I know, but Range mode is not comfortable and so basically just not worth any additional range imo
  17. kempez

    I got my (preowned) 4S!

    Always worth holding the charging handle fairly firmly in the port until you hear the click as well, they’re a bit fussy and often if you let go they don’t engage well. That’s what I’ve found. Congrats on the car. Seatbelt sounds like a back to dealer thing

    What's the purpose of Recuperation on the Settings screen?

    Anyone else play ‘how long can I coast for before I need to hit the throttle?’ No, just me? ???

    Who charges their Taycan to 100% SoC at every charge

    Yeah I should have added that, exactly. Range mode is even lower and is far too uncomfortable for a nice highway cruise. SportPlus I get as if you’re in that then you are focusing and doing some fast driving.
