As SwissTaycan says… ‘Apples and Oranges’, they’re different cars for different needs and occasions. Would make more sense to compare the Taycan to the Panamera.

It looks expensive at first glance but there's a lot included as standard that I paid extra for on my 4SCT (18 way seats, numerous trim enhancements, Sport Chrono, PESS, etc). I haven't studied it forensically yet but a quick run through the configurator and I reckon that with a like for like...

I have my dealer's first ST GTS on order and will need to move on my CT4S when the time comes so am also watching values. My dealer told me a couple of weeks ago that a CT4S that they had supplied was recently sold on at a £12K profit (and he said it wasn't a particularly desirable spec)...

My dealer has confirmed I'll be allocated their first ST GTS, now I just have to hope that the residual value of my CT holds up OK.... ?

I still don't understand why limiting our charge to 80-85% is needed to protect the battery when we seem to have established (or at least strongly inferred) that there is a hidden safety margin already built in to the charging software.... so an indicated 100% is only in reality something in the...

Porsche Centre Newcastle have two 270Kw chargers (in addition to a number of 'slow' chargers) they were both working fine when I was there a couple of weeks ago... Just in case anyone's near that part of the A1 and needs a quick squirt of juice. Dealer said any Taycan owners were welcome to use...

Very nice buddy... I've got a Crayon CT4S too, good to see someone else with great taste! :CWL: Lovely car... enjoy! :like:

They're the 21" Yorkshire Pudding Design aero wheels (the aero wheels need just 10 mins in the oven longer than the non aero) ?

Ah... pity! I thought it sounded too good to be true. Thanks all for clearing that up.... I'll not be testing it myself now! :rolleyes:

My dealer recently told me that there is a hidden safety margin of around 15% extra range after running the battery down to an indicated 0%. This would equate to something in excess of 30 miles still available AFTER hitting 0%. Now I don't intend to test this myself but next week I'm going on a...

Minor update two months later, just been chatting to my dealer whilst doing the 'Masterclass'. He says they've only managed to supply three CTs to date (including mine) and demand is high. He knows of one that was recently flipped for a £13K profit (and it wasn't a particularly desirable spec)...

Battery+ is standard on the Cross Turismo

Just seen Matt Prior's review of the 4S Cross Turismo in this week's Autocar. A rare 5 stars and summed up as '...our favourite variant of our favourite EV' That'll do. ?

No, not considered it... road noise through the roof doesn't seem at all significant to my ears.

I drove our old Macan (regular glass) to the trade in for our Taycan (acoustic glass) and made a conscious note to compare external noise levels on the motorway journey. A Macan compared to a Taycan isn't exactly 'like for like' of course... but it's not apples and oranges either and you can...

My CT4S has been fine, no problems at all (aside from the missing electric steering and key)... July build, collected 24th July.

Yeah, the configurator doesn't show the polished faces of the wheel very well at all, it really does look like it's all painted the same. The only real clue is if you click the info button which says "painted in Titan Grey with highly polished front surfaces.". They really do look good in the...

Assuming they offer it in your country, book on the Porsche Driving Experience as soon as you can (offered for free to new owners). They have tracks like an Ice Hill to simulate an ice covered slippery slope, a Kick Plate which sends the car into a spin so you can practice spin recovery, a...

No way are my two going anywhere near the leather! ? They stay in the boot either on the plastic boot liner or in their bed.... so I'm afraid I won't be much use in a pug leather durability report.... I'm sureHis Royal Highness will love the ride though!

Excellent and congrats on the new car! Good to hear that the parts are coming through now, hopefully that means they'll be able to sort out the retrofits before too much time passes.
