Great colour - never disappoints whatever the light.

My only experience was when I kerbed an alloy on a Cayman when the van I was overtaking swerved out into my path. I told the service advisor when I dropped it off and they kindly didn't charge me. Might be worth a face to face chat with them to explain your position and gauge from the...

Possibly depends on how long you’re keeping the car and of course your ocd threshold for perfection…

I used a franchise ‘The Wheel Specialist’ on my 20” diamond cut wheels as they are used by our local OPC. They did a good job but one alloy showed blistering again after less than 9 months. They acknowledged it was a combination of bad product and inexpert technician (they’d had other cases...

Yes you do as otherwise Manheim may decide the car is ‘unsafe’ and abort the collection, charging you accordingly. Be aware too that if you’re at the end of a 3 year PCP they may try to con you that there are new Govt/DVLA rules stating that a first MoT must be undertaken a full 3 days before...

I've not seen/noticed this before but were you on a road with average speed cameras installed?

When I first started using public chargers, my bigger anxiety was whether they would connect properly to the car. Whenever they haven't initialised & connected immediately it's been my error. Make sure you definitely turn the ignition fully off (car won't charge with it on but chargers just...

Sadly no. I'm on a PCP with a £12k gap between the GFV and current market value so it seems daft to retain the car despite originally speccing it as a 'keeper'. VWFS/Porsche won't let me buy it at market value so it's buy or refinance at GFV. VWFS interest rate on 'used' vehicles is really...

I've just received a mailing for Warranty & Breakdown extension for my near 3 yr old 4S. Details including 'phone number below:

The only time I've ever had billing issues with them has been when my Smart Meter has gone offline randomly and multiple times within a billing period (we live in a rural area but just 1/2 mile from 2 masts - go figure) and they've had to reconstruct the data. However, I've found their email...

Like all things, you adjust quickly to the RWS and in all parking and turning scenarios it provides a noticeable benefit. Especially helpful when reversing out of Haven't noticed a greater risk on kerbing the rears but have kerbed the fronts, possibly due to incompetence but also the...

Yes. I leave the car like this regularly. Just two quick presses of the fob. You can of course also leave the air con running (needs resetting via the app after 60 mins). I do this with a note left on the dash explaining car is air conditioned to avoid over eager passers by ‘rescuing’ our...

My OPC doesn’t charge for a loaner if it’s warranty work - they charge it back to Porsche, so push back if they try. They do charge for loan cars during a scheduled service. However, having to pre book for Warranty work by 8 weeks is used to discourage having a courtesy car…

I might be misunderstanding here but if it’s been used for demos, it’s not new. It’s used. How many miles does it have? As a ‘Used’ vehicle, the % discount doesn’t seem generous on the face of it.

The underlying consideration is whether you own or have financed the Taycan. If you own it, the worst depreciation should be over and the rate will soften in years 3-6. I worry about years 6-8 depreciation as battery performance will have reduced to a restrictive level and the warranty period...

By coincidence the campaign fix was done at the same time as my 2 year service. I was initially charged for the brake fluid change but the service agent called (without being prompted) a couple of days later to arrange a credit as the work was covered under the warranty fix. For once a thumbs up...

I had similar corrosion start on the gold crest wheel inserts on mine after just 18 months. Dealer’s first response was that it was down to acid wheel cleaner use. I’ve never used it and only ever use the shampoo provided with the ceramic coating service. After the warranty manager inspected...

Subtly changes the colour but looks great.

Lovely. Does it have a wrap/ppf or is that au natural?
