Yup that sounds like me. I've literally only just been contacted by the dealership over a week ago having ordered it last May. It will be the longest I've ever waited for a car. Will be worth the wait though. As long as its not an auld banger that is :lol:
I honestly think mine is further delayed because its a lease. I think if you ordered direct with Porsche you are higher priority. Everyone's cars are delayed to an extent but I think lease cars are lower priority to Porsche dealers.
So I had my first contact from Porsche today (I'm leasing through my company scheme) nice guy from Porsche Nottingham. I've got a build slot but because of the war causing supply chain issues I'm not getting my car by June. Be lucky if its by end of summer! I ordered it end of May 21! Oh well. I...
I don't know how accurate it is but I was told its about margins. Porsche make better margins with direct customers than with the lease companies. I have no idea what that alleged % increase is but it makes sense. Anyways it is what it is. I'm beyond throwing the toys out of the pram now. I'll...
Got an email yesterday from my company lease firm that my car is now delayed a month until late June, was expecting this with the Zuffenhausen production pause. Company lease must be bottom of the Porsche priority pile! Ordered in May 21, originally Dec 21 delivery, then Feb 22, then May 22 now...
UK car show 5th Gear put this on YouTube. Its Jason Plato presenter and Touring Car champion racing 1 hot lap in a Taycan CTS and then a 911. Interesting and shows Porsche have built their EV to go round corners as well as their 911! Fast! Hopefully this link works?
I don't but I've escalated it this week to get more details of where its coming into and what's the delays. I'll find out next week when my fleet manager is back.
Ordered Crayon RWD Saloon through company scheme in late May 21. Was originally told 3rd week Dec 21, then in Oct 21 that went to 3rd week Feb. I was told on Monday of this week its now 3rd week of May! So 12 months for me. No reason or explanation. As others have said if it wasn't for the BIK...
I've had zero comms from the dealer. All through the Lease company. A faceless generic email was the update with no reason. I've kicked off with our fleet manager and raised a complaint with regards to the lease companies communication. Shocking.
Ordered my car through company lease scheme June 21. Was originally estimated Dec 21, then was confirmed End of Feb 22. Woke this morning to an email now saying May 22! Absolute joke. If I wasn't so far into waiting I'd cancel.
Hi James. I ordered a RWD saloon end of May last year through my company scheme. It arrives in 6 weeks time. I was told and so far it is 8 months. Obviously that may be different now and for a CT too.
I'm PAYE and placed a my order with our fleet provider in June. Fleet proiver is ALD Auto. Car due to arrive end of Feb 22. Definitely the BIK rates were the tempting factor for me.
I'm an unashamed Porsche fan. Loved them since I was a child. Tesla model 3 is the iPhone equivalent of a car. Hard to beat as a car. Fast, reliable, reasonably well priced. Porsche, whether it's a 356, 911, 918 or Taycan. Shit will go wrong! If you want reliable, VFM, fast in a straight line...
Been interesting reading this thread. Not surprised by the emotive responses seen as its a Taycan forum :CWL: . I don't see Tesla as a luxury brand. My mate has a Model X. It's nice. The whoopee cushion and karaoke are novel features. It's blisteringly fast in a straight line. And it's quite...
