    Can you tell the difference between noise insulated glass and standard in regards to road noise?

    Heating Failure

    This is what is happening to some Teslas, there is a valve that can get frozen and breaks when activated. Tesla were apparently able to fix it with a software update.

    Heating Failure

    I read an interesting article about the Tesla heater failures, which may be the same unit. It appears that in freezing conditions a flap in the heater can get iced up and break on startup, which may line up with cars arriving at the moment having issues after being subjected to sea crossings...

    First impressions of standard audio system (compared to Bose system)

    Hi Ben, any chance you could share with us what you installed? I see from your profile you have a Tesla, how does the Taycan base audio compare to the Tesla? I have an M3P with premium audio and that is more than adequate for my needs. Thanks

    UK order status and delays?

    I saw a transporter with 6 Taycans heading west on the M4 this morning, hope they are on the way to making someone here happy ? I was heading the other way the only one I could be sure of was a Neptune Blue CT.

    GTS Sport Turismo - What are your "must have" options?

    Innodrive and ALK feels much different to the Tesla system, I wasn't even sure ALK was working until it took a sweeping bend for me, on the Tesla the car takes over the steering and sometimes you end up wrestling back control whereas it felt seemless in the Taycan. It's good at getting you to...

    UK order status and delays?

    I will probably do the same soon after taking delivery. I enquired about the best route to getting a GT3 allocation and was told it's both number of cars bought previously and if you financed through Porsche. I will probably be too old for a GT3 by the time I get there anyway so will switch...

    GTS Sport Turismo - What are your "must have" options?

    I had a GTS on the experience day this week, definitely spec RWS. I took the car on the roads and thought Innodrive and ALK was very good, much better than the system on my Tesla. It also had the HUD which I didn't consider but quite liked and may specify. I am considering removing privacy...

    Silverstone PEC on Monday - what to ask for?

    Thank goodness for that! I have had a couple of test drives in a CT but they were very sedate.

    Silverstone PEC on Monday - what to ask for?

    I have my complimentary PEC visit on Monday and TBH not sure what to ask for, as I understand it the instructor will ask what kind of experience you want. My normal driving is in London <20mph with the occasional blast to the West Country and less often across Europe to Croatia. I'm not...

    UK order status and delays?

    Excellent news, I read somewhere that there wouldn't be any GTS ST deliveries until end of 2023, pleased for you and glad it's not true.

    Just joined - Newby - Ordered my Taycan last week

    I think the colour thing is normal, my car will hopefully be next year, I’ve switched between Carmine, Olive, Carmine, Mamba Green, Carmine, Gulf Orange and currently sitting at (drum roll) Carmine. Honestly every colour looks great and whenever I see one In the flesh that's the best one.

    Anyone sold a turbo recently?

    In the Tesla world Simon Jones is highly recommended https://www.sjonesltd.co.uk/ I haven't used him (yet) and no personal connection. According to his website he charges £1440 to sell a car.

    Dogs transport in CT

    That looks nice, I can’t find another retailer for the larger one. I don’t have a Taycan yet, I might try the 4Pets one in my Model 3, I have a Cocker Spaniel and he’s 15kg, one of the justifications for getting a Sport Tourismo is I want an electric estate (wagon) to transport the dog and there...
