Yes....its why Taycan owners pay a premium to own such an engineering marvel. So your neighbours can watch you every month having to prod round the front of it with a chopstick to check if things are still working.......before it dissapears off to the dealers for a few weeks again. 🤣 Its all...

I did very similar too (Ice Grey). Reversed into a low metal post in a car park, which the sensors didn't pick up. Got it fixed by chips-away to a really good standard, for very little cost. Fill and spray. You couldn't see where it had been repaired at all, apart from one very small mark on...

My personal view is the OP may have a very valid argument. Appreciate its different in the US. But in the EU/UK, the Iran war has had a positive impact on used EV and PHEV prices in general. Or at least its halted the downward trend. Demand for used EV/PHEV is sharply up, with a similar decline...

I think the Taycans reputation for being unreliable and costly to repair has really affected sales. The 'unreliable money pit' reputation it gained over the years did not help sales. Combined with an inability to even get it booked into the dealers (UK) is well known amongst the car...

Or how about being charged a lot for a 'full service' when all they do is change the brake fluid and poke round it with a stick for 5 minutes. Oh wait a minute.... 😆

We can do even better than that.......... Don't power our efficient EVs with electricity from renewable sources. Let's use 'beautiful clean coal' instead! Then we can really feel like its the 1950s (apart from the heatwaves, floods and forest fires)

It has been shared on here previously many years ago. The explanation from the owner is also well documented. The anti EV brigade were not slow in saying the car did it itself at the time.... and it was therefore widely circulated on social media with that false narrative.

OP is not in the US. CT/ST still available everywhere else iirc.

Having read the Top Gear article, I've converted from thinking it is totally useless to possibly very useful. I didn't know it added some vibration as well. In fact, every article I've read is positive about it.

Surprisingly Top Gear magazine love it and are converted. But interestingly they say, rather than just a gimmick, it has real world advantages: So it's not just the physical aspect of improving car control. It's psychological – and that's just as important. It improves your perception of...

I am pretty sure if they damage it, they won't point it out and show you that it wasn't there when it came in to the dealership using the scan. I bet they hope you dont see it - and if you notice it some time later, they will pull the scan out and say it wasn't damaged when it was here.

My mechanical ones used to freeze open every time we had a frost and I had charged the car with the port door open. Dealers refused to look at it unless I brought it in like that (by which time I had to drive 50 miles and it defrosted and worked). Another part of my Taycan 5hitshow experience...

Its not the inner tyrewall issue on the rears is it?

95 pages...... Just about trying to have functioning satnav. In a 'premium' brand. In 2026. Just think about it.

Request a video of the underside before you commit and look very carefully for any damage. Even a small area of damage can be a disaster in the wrong place. You wont want to read all 62 pages, but the first few should give you an idea why its so important. Check for damage

Conversation with Gemini Uk fca regulated mechanical breakdown insurers list? The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) does not publish a singular, isolated list explicitly titled "Mechanical Breakdown Insurers." Instead, firms that underwrite or administer mechanical breakdown insurance...

I don't know the answer sorry. But any company who is regulated should state it via most communication channels. Eg We have to have it on websites / emails etc. The other option is to search the FCA register. And much as the FCA miss the plot with a lot of their burdensome red tape, Consumer...

Coal is where its at for you. Its the future! It is both beautiful and clean apparently. I must ask the wife to change all the Acqua di Parma soap in the house for a lump of coal, as we must be wasting a fortune. 😆

That Polestar 6 (googled it) looks lovely! Im not mad keen on the rear of the 5, but it looks great on the 6.

For me it was the UK dealer experience that forced me to sell. Having the car constantly need repairing is one thing. Having dealers just shrug their shoulders and say they can't even look at the car for 2-3 months is another. I tried 4 different ones and they really didnt seem in the slightest...
