Thanks for all the comments here - really useful. I am replacing the factory Pirelli's at 16k on the back with nice even wear. Admittedly Porsche wanted to change them probably 4k ago but I decided to wear them down as they had loads left in them. Just checked the fronts (as I knicked a side...

Yes

The depreciation is crazy. Porsche invited me to bring my 4S Cross Turismo in this weekend to be valued. They are seeing a lot of interest in 1 - 2 year-old Taycans and suggested we take a look. My car is 18 months old, has loads of extras, 16k miles in excellent condition and it was valued...

I have always run to the wear bar. Spoke to the Porsche Center about this and simply said it was company policy.

Thanks for all the feedback and comments. I will run the Pirellis down over the summer as I assume all 4 will be at the limit by then. Looking at the report the fronts were not flagged but only a 0.3 mm difference to the rears. I will look into some Michelin PS4 ? Might consider a set of...

Interested to hear other people's experiences with rear tyre wear. My '23 Taycan CT is in for several recall items and the Porsche Center has just advised me that my rear tyres are 60% worn at just 7000 miles and asked if I would like them replaced for £733! They are Pirelli 285/40/20 Y and my...

It looks awesome... Enjoy!

I finally collected my Taycan 4 CT yesterday... A long time coming having ordered on 10th Feb 2022 and collected it on 10th July 2023 ? Over 100 days since completion... Some collection pictures to share! The first drive was incredible.... Will be testing it more this week. Great to read...

I have the same reservations as you. They are releasing regardless of the test result, Germary advised this is the last test and it can be released. Also being a sceptic, I did raise cancelling the car last Friday ? At the end of the day, we don't even know what they were testing, as no...

Update: So I finally got the nod that I can collect my car next week, just as I had given up hope. >114 days since the battery was put in the car and it has not passed the battery test (yet), but I have been advised there is one last test today, and it will be released. I know many of you are...

I think that is a difficult question, mine was a March 2023 build (originally forecast Sept 2022), completed April 2023 and I still do not have it due to the hold. Mine has not passed the test (yet). That said my SA told me last night the cars manufactured after mine have not been subject to the...

Congrats it looks great... I have gone for the Crayon too. Enjoy!

I asked that very question and as expected the answer was avoided, they just reassured me that they were on the case. Trying to decide when to just call it quits and cancel the order.

An update as some of you are in a similar position. I spoke to the SA today, >63 days since the car was completed and it is still on hold as they cannot pass the test. For now, they are testing daily until they get the result they want. I have asked how long they will just go on testing daily...

Thanks for the feedback. I am in a similar position to you it seems at >60 days. All I can do is wait...

Congrats to all of you collecting your cars this week... Making me excited, they look great. Unfortunately, I doubt I will be collecting mine this week as we have been waiting over a week for Germany to give it the all-clear. SA said yesterday afternoon Germany only came back with a response...

I am sitting waiting for the phone call... My car was 50 days old last Tuesday, due to there being 14 Taycans at the dealership at the same point, data was not sent to the Factory until Friday and they do not work weekends. Fingers crossed for a collection this week ?

There is no consistency in the communication. Mine was completed on April 24th and put on stop when it reached the dealer. A family member works for another performance car manufacturer and confirmed no stop sales had been reported to the industry, which is normal practice. If it is a battery...

I got the excuse that we cannot tell you anything as it may impact the share price this week...

Finally got hold of my SA. Confirmed my Taycan CT is on the 50-day hold for the battery which is next Tuesday ? Anyone got any experience with how long it takes to do the checks/update and get it ready for delivery? SA was very honest that no car they have has gone past 50 days yet so do not...
