    If you’re ?‍♂️ running why will you need an electric charger. Are you looking for sponsorship for the ultra marathon?

    Waiting to collect my GTS next week so any help or tips would be great.

    Apologies for the shit photo! Here is how to offset the 19k corporate tax bill for the 4S just sold! Replace it, of course, with a GTS and get a 21k tax benefit. So my tax bill stays a bit better than carbon neutral! If I sell it in 2 yrs for a premium I might get a 22k tax bill but the company...

    Waiting to collect my GTS next week so any help or tips would be great.

    Unfortunately a dealer demonstrator with Reg plates (not trade plates) on is by definition 2nd hand when sold on. They have to own it for 3/12 and do a certain mileage for a bit of VAT dodging or something. The rule for the full upfront 100% corporate tax relief on an electric company car is...

    Ionity - Stafford

    I did a drive by last month when passing close even though I didn’t need to charge to check it out as it is my local Ionity. It is all up and running and has been since April I think. It was down for nearly a year I think due to some kind of dispute.

    Excellent. Very honest price that. Which honest dealer? Below list or even list for 2000 mile GTS unheard of. Well done

    Lovely car. Absolutely fully loaded with every extra available! Typical dealer launch demo! Loads of non essential extras but nothing makes it worse and most makes it better. Still have Race Tex and Black Spyders for true GTS I love monochrome pale coloured GTS to show black details. I would...

    GTS Saloon - Build Spec Review & Opinion

    LOVE the fact that you are staying with Race Tex. I have seen 2 GTS builds on this forum with Truffle leather interior! State of the art 21st century car with a 1970s interior from a Jaaaaag or a Cadillac. Terrible. Probably comes smelling of cigars and Brut as standard. I took delivery of a...

    Rear Wheel Steering

    Speed is pretty fundamental! At low speed rear wheels turn in opposite direction to fronts At high speed same direction. Hence different handling characteristics. Nothing fundamentally dangerous about it. Just different and probably a bit better if you know what you are doing. Makes low...

    I know you are all desperate to know if my car has the mysteriously elusive steel edges to the pedals. I have been to check……… It DOES! Also has the proper side skirts! Woo Hoo

    PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) on Taycan (base model)

    Base suspension is superb but Electric cars that weigh 2.5 tonnes or 5000 pounds are even better with Air Suspension. PASM is NOT Air suspension Base2WD comes as standard with “Steel Coil spring suspension with PASM” You can upgrade to “Adaptive Air Suspension including PASM”

    That reduction of 60cm from 11.8 to 11.2 is massive! Must make all the difference!

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Two completely different problems! Car not starting is one thing. Not acceptable. A bit of German is great fun however! I love it that in German the Sat Nav says Find Target instead of find destination. A reminder of Ferdinand Porche’s rich heritage. He designed tanks for the Wehrmacht in...

    GTS Orders UK

    Porsche UK are fairly consistent. There is not a great conspiracy! All dealers in UK got 2x GTS. A Sport Turismo for the showroom and showing off, like at the Cardiff Expo, (as it was the new model) and a saloon for demo. They can’t order loads of showroom cars, put them all on Demo and sell...

    “Broadsword calling Danny Boy, the eagle has landed.” GTS saloon has arrived today at dealership and they want to get it to me in May. Excellent! Pick up Tuesday 31st May. Lively jubbly. For the record, I ordered on launch day, flipping from a Turbo. I was told I was 2nd for a GTS at the...

    Tracked my Taycan 4S today!

    Absolutely fair enough, you have done a lot of driving. That also must mean that you are even more Crystal Clearly aware that most of the rich old boy Turbo S heroes are much worse than you and the other professional drivers!

    150kW on-board DC-DC converter - do I need to order this in UK?

    Fair enough! How much is one? It was nearly £2k quote for me with rewire and stuff as already had the grant for home address for a free 7kw charger. Still a waste of time whatever the cost and don’t forget the bonus feature that it can break your car!
