Porsche South London lent me a J1.2 4S CT for the afternoon when I was looking. Lovely guy called Andy looked after me. In the end I bought from Porsche Newport as they had an ex demo but South London were super helpful. As someone else said, think about finance as you'll get a better deal on...
£83k is the base price. That had £17k of options. The base petroleum cayenne is £77k and is slower. I’m not buying one but I think this could have been way worse.
I thought the pricing would be worse. £100k in the UK for the standard one with all the options I would want including leather, Bose, over wheels etc. 4.8 seconds to 60 and if the range is about 340 in the real world that sounds good to me. It’s not much more than the petrol that’s older and...
I’ve had a 4S CT J1.2 for about 9 months now and love it. Your question was if there is anything bad about it. I guess occasionally I wish for a bit more boot space but that’s not “bad” it’s just the car. The only problem I’ve had with it is the car has developed an annoying rattle on the...
On a related point, has anyone got a Pod Point charger and IOG? On the website, depending on which Taycan I tell it that I have it will say they are compatible or not. I am pretty sure my J1.2 4SCT will work but it’s not 100% clear. I am currently signed up to OVO which was great but...
Hi all - my J1.2 4s has developed a rattling noise and just wondering what others have done about that. It isn’t always there but when it is the noise comes on the passenger side and sounds a bit like the noise the sun visor makes when you snap it back into the up position.
I presume the only...
Yep that’s where mine is. Fits there really well. I guess it doesn’t really matter but I’m starting to think I’ll just never use it. The posts above are all good examples of when it could be used though but on a long road trip where I am not planning on destination charging ( with no idea on...
Just out of interest, does anyone carry around the charge cable that came with the car? I’ve seen pics of the large bag that used to come with the car but I just got the one cable that I guess works with AC chargers. It’s been sat in the boot under the floor and I just can’t see me ever using...
Impressed you got better range than I did. We were perhaps a bit more loaded up and I don’t have aero wheels. But mine is the J1.2 so all a bit confusing. Anyway, glad you enjoyed the drive. I loved it. The car is just so good on the motorway and I’d love a trip up and down those mountain...
I specced up an MY26 that is basically same as mine and unless I am going crazy I think the MY26 is a bit cheaper. Or maybe it’s just the case that one or two of the options on my car are now thrown in. I guess if you had different options it would be different.
Odd too that they seem to...
To be honest, wasn’t really looking. I guess I saw a few Teslas around and the charging stops certainly weren’t empty. Our drive was mainly motorways and a blast up and down the mountain. Unlike your normal holiday ski weekend, the roads were relatively quiet.
Just back from a week of skiing in Les Arcs and first time in Taycan (J1.2 4S CT). Just thought I would post a few random thoughts / observartions!
It’s so nice to drive on the motorways in France. Quiet, effortless and just lovely for when you want to nip past someone. I have the...
I have the gen 2 CT4S and love it. Has RAS and the cornering and parking is great. We test drove a CT4 but several months before I finally took delivery and I think the 4S has a noticeable power improvement. But as I live in London there are times I wonder what the point is. The CT4 still...
I have the thermal insulating glass on mine and really like it and the quietness of the car., I have had no issue with mobile phone (cell) signal at all. As for toll reader, yet to try. But my last car (Audi Q7) had the same sort of glass, probably even thicker and the toll reader worked just...
I’ve had mine a few weeks now. J1.2 and I love it. I’m sure there are faults but are there not with lots of cars? I think a lot of the faults you list I had read in advance from reviews etc.
I know people have had problems with them that are genuine issues but for me, it’s a joy to drive and...
Good advice and I would have loved to drive properly but with the traffic yesterday, mile after mile of average speed camera etc driving it as you describe would have resulted in all sorts of problems. I wasn’t aiming for 3m/kph, just happened so that it is even better. Went out one evening...
Good to hear! Thanks for that. Yes, it is new. Bought from a dealer who had it in stock but had more options than I wanted. Was in black which was not first choice but I really like it.
Most of the driving at the moment is little 3 or 4 mile runs around town so it’s probably about the worst...
Thanks for all the tips on the original questions. I’ll try putting it in park next time as that makes sense to show the “buttons”. Thanks also for the pointers on the PCM… Would be a lot of presses to get to the menu item but hopefully putting in park does the trick
