  1. Brake Problem

    Yesterday I got into the Taycan having left it for a couple of hours over lunch. When pressing the power button with my foot on the brake pedal, the pedal sank down quite close to the floor. I now have to press the pedal a long way down for the brakes to come on, and occasionally the brake pedal...
  2. Charging At Porsche Dealers

    I’m visiting friends near Porsche West London today. Does anyone know whether or not Porsche dealers offer a quick charge when you’re passing? I’m sure I read somewhere that they provide charging for Taycans but I’m not sure my local dealer do. Thanks
  3. Ionity Leeds

    Charged up at Ionity Leeds on my way from Bath to Wensleydale today. The intelligent range manager had it on the route so I think the battery was conditioned for fast charging when we arrived and charge level was 11%. The charger started off at 249kw, peaked a few minutes in at 260kw. Once 80%...
  4. Launch control - minimum battery charge?

    Tried to do a launch in my 4S this afternoon. Was in sport mode and pressed the brake and the accelerator. But it didn’t go into launch mode. it worked yesterday ..... Could it be there is a minimum battery level? I was at 30%. cheers
  5. Picked up my 4S today

  6. Wheel & Tyre Insurance

    Just wondering - has anyone been offered / bought wheel / tyre insurance in the U.K. on their new Taycans? If so just wondering what the price and terms you’ve seen are? I had that in a BMW I bought and it was very worthwhile. And my exclusive design wheels are going to take some looking...
  7. OLEV grant dependent on registered keeper?

    Hi All Spoke to my dealer about registering me as the keeper of the Taycan rather than my company which is buying it. Their answer is that they could do that but I would lose the OLEV £3.5k grant because the car has to be invoiced to and registered to the same entity that the grant was applied...
  8. UK Porsche mobile charge connect - what output with 32A commando socket

    Hi I appreciate there are a number of discussions on plugs and output etc but before I arrange an electrician to install a 32A commando socket please can I just double confirm that will give 7kwh output? Just want to be 100% sure before forking out... Cheers David
  9. VAT - wonder if this might be reduced in a way that effects Taycans

    Hi Reading the papers today it seems a reduction in VAT may be being considered. Whether it would be done in a way to avoid it benefiting new Taycans I don’t know, but thinking I’d like to see if anything is announced before taking delivery even if that pushes things out a week or two (if I’m...
  10. Malacca Highway arriving at Sheerness around now

    Inbound from Emden. Wondering if anyone knows if this might have some Taycan’s on board? I heard the first boat isn’t until 18 June but living hopefully!
  11. Taycan with black/crayon interior - photos please

    Hi I haven’t seen many (any) cars coming through with the black/crayon leather interior. I have ordered a gentian blue 4s with black/crayon interior. Build code PLL1XXL9. It’s been built and waiting for a ship to the UK at the moment. Wondering if anyone has had this interior combination and...
  12. Lease vs Buy

    Hi Im in the U.K. and I’m wondering whether to lease or buy my 4s which is scheduled for delivery late April/early May. I have a limited company so can do a business lease, or just buy it outright. It works for me to buy it through my company either way with the BIK rates so low. The thing...
  13. Any Taycans in the U.K. yet?

    Hi All Wondering if anyone has taken delivery or seen one at a dealer in the U.K. yet? Our dealer doesn’t seem to have a date for their demonstrator arriving or a fixed date for their launch event yet. best David
  14. Home charging in the UK

    Hi All wondering what people are doing about this. Having been forced to take the Mobile Connect unit I’m wondering about getting the outside mounting box for that and a 32a commando socket. Or with the OLEV grant I guess it may be better to have a new point installed? interested in...
  15. Delete Taycan 4s lettering or not?

    Hi My son is adamant we should take the option to delete the model designation from our Taycan 4s. He feels it will make the rear look better. Interested to know what everyone else is doing on this one and people’s views? We have a spec lock date of 10th Jan so need to make a decision. best...
  16. Surround View - Is it worth it?

    Hi All quick question - is the surround view worth it over and above the reversing camera? I haven’t had a Porsche for a while so haven’t tried the two options. cheers David
  17. High Gloss Sport Design Pack or Matte?

    Hi I’m pretty much set on my 4S spec but am having concerns about whether to get the sport design pack in high gloss or not. I read somewhere they scratch really easily. Any views? The car is going to be Gentian Blue with Black/Crayon leather and black high gloss window surrounds and privacy...
