Delivery Delays

[Adz_1990]

It's a business lease, so can only hand it back... not a purchase of any kind.

On a business lease I found the penalty per mile was actually cheaper (and by a fair margin) than just declaring the miles up front. Worth a check on the PCP.

That's what I did on the PCP - cheaper to go for less miles and pay the excess (if it ever gets to handing it back...)

Good news, glad you got it sorted

I'll consider things sorted once the car is safely delivered without blemishes or faults. Definitely not before. Excuse the pessimism.

Hi Doc

Really pleased you seem to be sorted at last what a journey but hope Sat goes ok for new car day

How did your new car day go Gary? Guessing from the silence you’re busy enjoying it, clocking up the miles!

Picked up my mamba green RWD earlier today, finally. I'll post some pictures when the weather improves

However, my wife have already kerbed one of the wheels

Congratulations! Are you pleased with it?

In defence of your wife, it is a very wide car and takes some getting used to if spatial awareness isn’t your strength. Most UK drive throughs are out of bounds if you want to avoid kerbing your alloys with the Taycan, as can be a lot of multi story car parks. Far better to sit inside a Starbucks, enjoy the view of your new toy and enjoy witnessing others giving your new toy admiring glances.

It is amazing how often that has happened with cars just after I've purchased them. I recon first week is the highest risk.

Glad you’ve thoroughly enjoyed the occasion.

The two plastic tags you refer to sound like the tracker fobs for Porsche VTS.

Car is really good but been crazy busy so only driven from dealer to home then found out there is a recall announced 1st March for re-programing power electronics and engine electronics [DMe] campaign no WNA5 I emailed and called dealer yesterday to see if mine was updated on the 1st March still waiting for reply hopefully mine has been done as did not pick car up until late afternoon on 1st March ( won't be impressed if not )
If you are picking yours up Sat maybe worth giving them a call to see if yours has been updated

Good to those who got their cars...looks like a delay may be looming due to current events. Hope flow of cars continues and the fighting stops and borders are restored soon.
