    UK order status and delays?

    This sounds bizarre! I am about to get my car soon and will be paying in cash, they have not mentioned anything to me about having to take out finance.

    UK order status and delays?

    I guess unlike the majority of us here is you are in the unique position of currently having BOSE in your Taycan so you would know how much (or how little) you would miss it on your new Taycan.

    UK order status and delays?

    Just had it confirmed that my car has arrived at Grimsby, so after finishing build end of July and spending far too long in Germany it’s now in England! Hopefully in a couple of weeks I’ll finally get to drive it and can consign this long frustrating wait to the past.

    UK order status and delays?

    If it’s not a deal breaker for you then I guess your question is answered. For me yes it would be especially if I was in a position where I could wait it out. The base audio is a big let down and imho should be avoided at all costs, add to that anyone buying a GTS is going to expect that Bose is...

    UK order status and delays?

    For me it’s Ceramic only, there’s a load of different theories on PPF out there however a few people I know who had it done pretty much agree with what’s said in this video: Yes PPF can be fantastic, but if your not prepared to pay for replacement sections to be re-done whenever an issue...

    UK order status and delays?

    So after I had seen the recent posts here I dropped an email to my contact at the dealership and he rang me about 5 mins later to say the tracking status had changed to show it had arrived at Emden on 10/11/2022 with an expected delivery to the dealer around the end of November (again this is on...

    UK order status and delays?

    Quick follow up car arrived at Emden port yesterday with expected delivery to dealer in 2 weeks time. I really hope @f1eng has also received similar good news :)

    UK order status and delays?

    Great to see a lot of positive updates here on the battery finally getting fitted. Hoping I get positive news soon too as mine was also built July 22 with initial deposit April 21!

    My battery range says 208 miles… shouldn't it be 250 miles?

    To echo what has been mentioned above the range in winter/cold temps is significantly less than what will be seen in summer/warmer temps. The good news here is that you will see your range increase in about 5 months once we get past the cold temperatures....your battery drain through the...

    Who's Being Waiting The Longest For Allocation ?

    So I’m still waiting on my car getting a battery but I do not think that’s correct. I’ve watched way too many YouTube videos and recall at least this one: mentioning this was a way to confirm what options had been added.

    Who's Being Waiting The Longest For Allocation ?

    You can check what optional extras are on the car by entering your VIN on the myporsche website. This will not tell you if the battery is there but will at least let you determine if the car was built with Bose added.

    UK small LTD company owner wants a 4S

    My current EV is leased via my limited company, I would expect this is the best route for you to follow. The leasing company will credit check your limited company and usually require approximately the last three years of accounts. The advantage of leasing is you can decide how many months up...

    2023 Taycans get improved updated EPA estimated range figures 👍

    Exactly, Although this will be my first Porsche once it finally arrives I cannot imagine that in the ICE days anyone purchased a Porsche based on the MPG efficiency. If I wanted super efficient I would go for something else (VW and the infamous diesal gate come to mind!), but nope definitely not...

    Does anyone actually use launch control?

    Agreed 100%, should be available whenever you want it. Launch Control is in my opinion something that should be confined to ICE cars

    Smart home integration w/ Taycan?

    The short answer from what I have seen is No, there is this thread: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/taycan-client-software-development.3633/page-3#post-50250 where some progress has been made but it does not seem to have a nice API like Tesla does. I am waiting to receive my car...

    Mamba green and resale

    Echoing what was mentioned in one of the above posts thinking about resale on a car costing > 100k to me is the wrong mindset. These are luxury cars that many people dream of owning so why consider the next owner when making a decision as vital as the colour of the car. If resale is really so...

    UK order status and delays?

    If you log into your account at: https://my.porsche.com/ just click on add vehicle and you can enter your VIN. You can then inspect all sorts. Annoyingly I have seen the below where my connected services started 16/09/2022 even though I have not got the vehicle :rolleyes::(

    UK order status and delays?

    Great news to see there is movement now, of course I am peeved off since my 4S ST completed build 2 months ago and still no idea when it will be delivered but this at least gives some hope it will eventually arrive! By the way if you enter your VIN on the my porsche site you can scroll down to...

    UK order status and delays?

    Agreed but they happily produced cars without the battery for at least a few months so it is not as if they could not progress without the battery. I presume they had a few spare ones that they rotated around the cars as they were built before removing it and sending the car into the "waiting...
